I don't have a dessert recipe this week so I thought I would share my current lunch recipe. This is what I eat most days when I am home. It's healthy and filling. It also make a large portion. No skimpy portions here. You can also find these ingredient very easily. Nothing fancy. You can [...]

Black Lentils and Spinach
If I'm going to be making food for my mother in law, it can be anything overly fragrant. That's too bad because I like food from all over the world. Many of these dishes are very fragrant. She doesn't even want anything that is to garlicky. She's worried about her breath smelling bad. I get [...]
What’s best when it comes to low carb diets?
One of the reasons I address scientific studies that come out is because the media does a terrible job reporting on them. They oversimplify the results. Doing that leads to confusion. One study comes out that says coffee is detrimental for people with certain conditions. The media says, "COFFEE IS BAD!!!". Then another study comes [...]
Easy Peruano Bean Soup
This week I am working on my running form. I have been having a nagging proximal hamstring injury that hasn't gotten any better. I figured it had something to do with my running. I just didn't know what. I don't have a running coach, so making improvements was impossible without some guidance. I know this [...]
Adding Protein to a Recipe
This is a repost of a post from the very beginning. I am traveling and will post new content next week. There are lots of great recipes out there. You can find them all over the Internet. You probably also have a ton of cookbooks at home. When you start eating healthier, does that mean [...]
Vegetarian Hungarian Goulash
What a week. While nothing earth shattering happened, I did something I had not done before. I went to see a minor league team play. I'm not a huge baseball fan, but I wanted to take Tony out for something fun. He is a baseball fan. We went to see the Lansing Lugnuts play. It [...]
Golden Cauliflower Dal with Red Lentils, Bell Pepper, Coconut and Spinach
What a busy week! Tony has been working on our old house getting ready to sell. We have so much stuff! We have so much stuff because we accumulated things from others in the family. They didn't have room for it, so it ended up with us. That includes cars. One of our cars came [...]
Instant Pot Chili Beans, Tempeh and Greens Burrito Bowl
I love Rick Bayless and the interesting Mexican dishes he recreates. Every time I connect in Chicago, I eat at Fonterra Grill. I am still trying to get my hands on huitlacoche (a fungus that infects corn). His restaurants serve it. I sounds like something you would want to avoid, it infects corn after all. [...]
Lentil Stew
Another week of working on the house. We are so close but yet not quite there yet. I installed a reverse osmosis system, and was so proud of myself. That was until the needle valve started leaking. I hope a new plastic compression sleeve will fix it. Otherwise it's painting and installing shower doors this [...]
Vegetarian Pinto Bean Soup
I decided this week to go with a soup. It's not quite sweater weather yet, but Tony loves soups. Frankly, so do I. I wanted to go with something simple because we are still working on the house. We are in the home stretch and everything we finish just makes the house complete. I am [...]
