This is a lovely fragrant soup. I’m trying to use my slow cooker more, but I think this would be just as easy to make on a stovetop. One of my problems with using the slow cooker is that usually everything turns out so meaty. Vegetarian meals don’t hold up to the long slow cookingRead more
Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving full of good food, family and friends! Now that my favorite holiday has passed we can turn our attention to the next one that is rapidly approaching….Christmas! If you have a special someone who’s into cooking, or trying to get more into cooking, then read on for my favoriteRead more
Sorry for the long hiatus, it’s been a crazy month! The kitchen is mostly finished (painting is being done this week), but everything is in working order. But everything’s been moved around so it’s going to take a while to get used to all the changes! I’m also taking a nutrition class and studying toRead more

So last night was the start of the new School of Christian Living classes. This term one of the classes is focused on animal rights, so I’m rising to the challenge to make 6 weeks of vegan meals. I’m going to try to stick to cooking with regular ingredients and limit the use of anyRead more
In addition to the Asian Cabbage Salad, Homemade Pita, and Edamame Dip I made this Creamy Green Pea Dip. I loved the smooth, slightly sweet taste of this dip. It gets a little kick from the jalapeno, but isn’t spicy. This would also make an excellent cold pasta sauce. With the addition of silken tofu itRead more
