What a fun, delicious new lunch idea or light dinner for the summer. I thought this went together very quickly and it looks amazing when plated as a lettuce boat… BUT… I will do a bed of lettuce on the bottom and spoon the veggies over the top. It is particularly messy to eat if…
TOFU, BOK CHOY,MANGO AND BROCCOLI SLAW
This is another meaLime app recipe (vegan) and right after I made it, I thought it was good. After it had time to blend the flavors, the left overs have been awesome and this is worth making…over and over!! Look at all that color!! As I write up this post, I am sipping on cream…
RED LENTIL DAHL
OH MY, I AM LOVING THIS NEW APP CALLED, “MEALIME”! I am not loving the lack of clarity with my camera in the last couple of days. Hang in there and I will get a new picture the next time I make this dish, which will be soon cause it’s delightful!! This definitely has an…
SWEET POTATO, CHICKPEAS AND MAPLE-TAHINI SAUCE
This is a new recipe from the app, “MEALIME”. I am experimenting with this app, looking for new recipes and I have to say, after one afternoon of cooking, I am so excited about this app and want to share!!! I wish my picture was a little more clear as it does not do justice…
HOMEMADE TOMATO SOUP
At last, a homemade tomato soup that is absolutely delicious and competes with the best restaurant’s version of tomato basil soup. Tomato soup is my favorite soup and I have tried many recipes trying to find the best one out there… I think it’s the basil pesto that gives this the edge and the jarred…
CUCUMBER, TOMATO SALAD
I had this wonderful salad at my friend Judy’s house. It was delicious and reminded me that all salads do not have to be made up from lettuce. My Mom used to make a cucumber and onion salad just by marinating those two items in vinegar and water with some salt and pepper thrown in….
MARGARITA OR LIMEADE WITH FRESH
SQUEEZED LIMES My brother, Kevin, came up with the perfect mixture of goodies to make the perfect summer drink. You can make it stronger or you can keep it as simple as just limeade and I promise, both are delightful! I hosted 6 ladies for a “fun in the kitchen “evening and everyone thought it…
ITALIAN PORTABOAT
This was actually called a Portobello Pizza but it does NOT fall into the pizza category (except for the pizza sauce) so I renamed this delightful treat. IF you can come with another name, I would be very interested!!! The portaboat was a wonderful surprise for not only me ….but for my brother and sister-in-law….
POPCORN TOFU
Ok…the title intrigued me and I am the biggest fan of popcorn, I just had to try it. It does NOT resemble popcorn in any way but it is a wonderful NEW appetizer worth having at your next get together. It’s delicious! It reminds me of a deep fried mozzarella stick but my sister-in-law says…
SIMPLE VERSES COMPLEX CARBS AND WHERE YOUR FOCUS SHOULD BE
SIMPLE CARBS BREAK DOWN EASILY AND ARE USED FOR ENERGY. IF YOU DO NOT USE THEM FOR ENERGY, THEY ARE STORED AS FAT. (UGH) They do not contain much fiber Crackers and cookies……. watch out!!! COMPLEX CARBS HAVE OTHER NUTRIENTS AND TAKE LONGER TO DIGEST. THE ABSENCE OF CARBS CAN CAUSE DIGESTIVE ISSUES SO WE…
