These were delicious! I was a huge fan of this meal. It’s veggie packed, with lean but moist and super flavorful turkey patties that are conveniently baked in the oven. While I did have a bit of a challenge finding green curry paste (…how is that not at my local Asian market??), I was ableRead more
This salad was super delicious. There’s lots of delicious stuff going on in this salad. Tofu and edamame add protein, the vegetables add a variety of color, texture and nutrients, and the dressing adds a punch of delicious citrusy flavor with salty-sweet flavors from the soy sauce and honey. The ground flaxseed adds a reallyRead more
As much as I like salad, all the cold weather recently has made them the last thing I want to eat. So I’m attempting to mix things up a bit and try some new, more creative salads to help me eat more veggies. This salad is a great side dish since it combines whole grainsRead more
This salad is a bit different, it doesn’t have a whole lot going on, but it plays well with other dishes. I served it for a Tuesday night dinner with the most amazing Spiced Stuffed Acorn Squash, which needed a nice supporting character and I thought this Roasted Cabbage fit the bill nicely. This comesRead more
I made this dish for Tuesday’s School of Christian Living dinner, and it was SUPER popular! I have to admit I was really shocked by how much people liked this meal. I was taking a chance on the raw kale. I love salad and raw veggies, but I know they frequently feel like “health” foodRead more

And add things to add interest, color, texture and taste to what might otherwise be boring greens. Last Tuesday for SCL I made this grilled vegetable salad. YouRead more
I’m a big fan of cabbage and love finding new ways to eat it. Cabbage is wonderfully inexpensive and goes a long way. I made this for Tuesday and have already made it again to go with our Thanksgiving leftovers. The lime is refreshing and tart, the peanuts add a sweet crunch, and the edamameRead more
This is a great recipe to keep in your back pocket. It’s really simple to throw together and makes for a great, fuss-free salad dressing. I love the salty-sweet-sesame flavor. Definitely a keeper!

I made this recently for my dad’s retreat. It’s a great make ahead meal and combines some great surprising flavors. This is another recipe from a woman who used to go to my church. Further proof that church ladies know good food, see here and here for the other proof. Curry Chicken Salad Serves 6-8Read more
This is a simple side. It’s a bit more exciting than your usual rice or plain quinoa. While the dried fruit adds a little pop of flavor, it doesn’t make the dish overwhelming sweet, just a subtle, chewy fruit flavor. Turmeric is a lovely spice, so bright and cheery. It’s also supposed to be goodRead more
