As I may have mentioned before, I’m a fan of dips. I think they’re a great food to take to work, and I love that they can get me to eat a whole pile of veggies without being a salad. Bonus points if the dip is healthy, so clearly hummus is a top contender. HummusRead more
This is a great vegetarian dish. It was a great vegetarian option to go with the Moroccan Chicken recipe. The spices are a bit more subtle in this, but I thought it was a great dish that highlights the flavors of the sweet potatoes and the butternut squash. I love when a dish brings out theRead more
After all the feast of the past several weeks (months?), having something simple, light and green is exactly what I need. This is a really simple recipe, but all the ingredients really shine. This is a great dip to take to a party, but it also makes for a great sandwich. This combines healthy omega-3sRead more
This stuffed squash was DELICIOUS! This will definitely be a regular recipe for me. It took quite a bit of searching to find an acorn squash recipe I liked the sound of. So many vegetarian squash recipes out there don’t sound like a main dish (in that they don’t have a lot of protein), soRead more
Salads get a bad rap. They’re frequently thought of as diet or rabbit food. So I’m trying to make more of an effort to make salads exciting. And add things to add interest, color, texture and taste to what might otherwise be boring greens. Last Tuesday for SCL I made this grilled vegetable salad. YouRead more
I love Indian food. But I’ve been rather intimidated to try making it at home. I finally got over my fear, and tried several recipes for a culinary adventure! This dish came out really well, and actually came together pretty quickly. I’d recommend having everything ready to go before you start so you can justRead more
I’ve wanted to make my own hummus for a while, and I’m not sure what has taken so long as it’s terribly easy to make. I look forward to experimenting with some different flavor and bean combinations. In the meantime here’s the basic recipe I started with. I was a little concerned when I sampledRead more
Sorry for the delay in posting! Unfortunately I still don’t have power at my house, fortunately my uncle and his family are on vacation so we moved into his house for the time being. I’ve also been busy doing a Peripheral Blood Stem Cell donation (a type of bone marrow donation). I signed up throughRead more
This is one tasty sandwich. I thought this recipe sounded intriguing and wanted to try it out. Unfortunately I made an incomplete grocery list and was missing quite a few of the ingredients when I decided to make this, but I just improvised and it turned out really well! This is a filling, super flavorful,Read more
Sorry for being so slow getting last Tuesday’s recipes posted! It’s been a crazy week! I unexpectedly had to go in for a physical to make sure I’m in good health to donate bone morrow through DKMS Americas. Then I worked with my friend, Sandra to do a big catering job. So for three daysRead more
