I never thought I would ever be using beets in a chili. It's one of those ingredients that doesn't scream "chili" to me. No matter. I still have extra beets to use up and am game for something new. I am starting with a recipe from Wholesome Family Living for Superfood Chili. This chili recipe [...]
Here we go again with another beet recipe. It is true, I hate to waste food. While Tony was sick, he planned to juice these. The juice upset his stomach. The soup I made with some of these beets was a hit. Now, I'm going to make a cake. I love to find new ways [...]
Tony is going to stay on the soup thing for a while. I have some more beets to use up. He tried to go back on the beet juice kick when he wasn't able to eat anything solid. It wasn't pretty. So, this recipe is more about being creative with the ingredients I have on [...]
This recipe came from a want to try a new ingredient. Recently I bought a sugar free sweetened condensed milk from Mrs. Taste (link is not sponsored). I have also been wanting to do a sugar free version of pecan pie. Pecan pie is one of those desserts that I don't eat because it is [...]
I was going to do another recipe this week, but I realized I did something I do quite often. I adapted my own recipe. The original recipe was for Turkey, Split Pea and Broccoli Soup. Tony had a wisdom tooth taken out last week and wanted something that was soft and flavorful to eat. He [...]
With the beets I have left, I made my savory dish. The Borscht was AMAZING. Now I am trying out something sweet. I found out you can make brownies with this red root vegetable. I'm all for that. I am starting with a recipe from Vegaterianized for their Dark Chocolate Beet Brownies. They describe them [...]
I have never had Borscht. I will fully admit I don't love beets. It's one of those vegetables that I can eat, but if I have a choice, I prefer to skip them. I have a lot of things in this category. Well, Tony was juicing for quite a while and used beets and apples. [...]
Our house is moving closer to being done. My brother, and IT guy, made the house 21st century. We moved to do this because so much is being done connected to the internet. Working from home, streaming television and music and electronic assistants all draw down on internet. Our setup is closer to an office [...]
Here's another recipe that's sole purpose is you use up some extra fruit. Along with the beets, I have a ton of apples. I thought it might be good to use them to make some apple pie. However, I don't want to make an actual pie. Rather apple pie bars. Easier to eat and way [...]
Have you ever noticed that some things are never really low sodium. Like ham or many Asian sauces. Hot dogs are another one of those things. When a hot dog is listed as "low sodium", it's still very high. I wanted to set out to make our own low sodium hot dogs, but didn't know [...]
