I made this dish for Tuesday’s School of Christian Living. It was a big hit. This comes by way of another church lady, but she got it from Sheila Lukins’ All Around the World Cookbook. There are no bananas, leaves or banana leaves in this curry, so I’m not sure where the name comes from…mightRead more
So last night was the start of the new School of Christian Living classes. This term one of the classes is focused on animal rights, so I’m rising to the challenge to make 6 weeks of vegan meals. I’m going to try to stick to cooking with regular ingredients and limit the use of anyRead more
Dinner last night was a bit of a cleaning out of the fridge. We had some veggies that needed to be eaten, some ground turkey that needed to be used or frozen, and a bunch of bell peppers. Naturally stuffed peppers came to mind. Figuring out what to stuff in a pepper takes a littleRead more
Holy yum, guys. These are delicious. They come together quickly if you have leftover squash. You can also use pumpkin, but I’m more likely to have butternut squash on hand. These are the perfect combination of slightly sweet, salty, doughy and tender. I’m excited to try other variations. I think green onions would be reallyRead more
My mom has a special touch with soup. She has the power to whip up delicious soups without a recipe or a plan. She can take whatever ingredients are laying around the pantry and create delicious hearty stews. While I have yet to inherit this superpower, I’ll stick to making adaptions of delicious recipes. WhileRead more
I was making my favorite vegetarian chili again for an event, but wanted something new and different to go with it, so I decided to change up the usual cornbread muffins and make these waffles. This was a fun recipe. It comes together quickly and gets some extra use out of your waffle iron thatRead more
My mom was gifted this relish about a year ago from her friend. I tried it and instantly became obsessed. This was surprising since I think it was only 3 years ago that I even started to eat cranberry sauce at thanksgiving, and now I’m constantly trying to come up with new combinations for thisRead more
Happy Halloween! To celebrate… more pumpkin!!! A year ago my aunt, Sharon, told Mom and me about this amazing recipe she made. It sounded delightful, but stuffing a pumpkin sounds kind of hard, so we didn’t ever get around to making it until now. And as I text Sharon, I kind of hate myself forRead more
To continue the pumpkin theme, here’s what I’ve been having for breakfast lately. I’m still missing all the fresh fruit of the summer, but adding pumpkin to my oatmeal at least lets me think I’m getting some vegetable in before the day has even really started. This comes together in about 10 minutes, so it’sRead more
This was a dip I made for my very good friend, Becky‘s housewarming party. I forgot to post this in a timely manner, it’s almost too easy to be a recipe. But if you’re looking for a good salsa recipe that doesn’t depend on summer produce, this is a good one. This is also greatRead more
