I am writing about a chili that I found that was just plain interesting. I've done chili with lentils before, but not with the base of carrots. I made chili with beets, why not with carrots? I can see this being a little sweeter than your typical chili. Carrots can make a wonderful base for [...]
Can you believe it? I still have beets to use up. Going through this journey of beet recipes, I am very surprised at what a beet can be used in. This recipe I am modifying is a Sri Lanken Beetroot Curry from the Flavor Blender. Who would have thought of using a beet in a [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
This week I am really busy. I took the week off to help Tony with our house. This leave little time to cook. With being the case I thought I would share with you one of my cold lunch staples this year. I have been making the Shawarma Spiced Salad that I shared before. I [...]
This week's recipe came about because of a video from Beryl Shereshewsky on YouTube regarding how the world eats mangoes. I love watching her videos because she is so young, yet so worldly. She understands several languages, including Russian. I wish I was that worldly myself. One of the dishes presented in this video was [...]
I am not from the Southern US. You can probably tell by the recipes I post. Even those in the north do enjoy southern fare. Buttermilk fried chicken, hot chicken, gumbo, jambalaya, and many others. However, there is a beloved dish that I was not aware of until recently, and that's bog. The dish consists [...]
Life has continued to be busy around here. Paint is going up on the walls of the new house as well as the showers almost being finished. I'm also tackling an oil change with a very difficult to remove oil plug. I am a girl who works on her own cars. Granted, don't ask me [...]
This is a recipe I developed from the fact I had a bunch of chicken bones left over. I do a lot of food prep, including baking chicken breast and pork tenderloin so it is ready to eat throughout the week. Normally I buy boneless skinless breasts, but all they had were bone-in. So I [...]
Things are pretty busy around our house. Between working from home, working on personal projects, getting our new home ready and making some upgrades to our current house, there's a lot to do. Even with all of this, I refuse to go for takeout when I can make something healthy and, quite frankly, better that [...]
