I have been really busy at work lately and haven't had much time to blog! I'm going to try to get caught up on some of the things we've been making lately this week. Sunday afternoon while my son was napping and I was catching up on some chores, I started thinking about dinner. And… Continue reading Sunday Dinner – Indian Style Rice and Beans With Easy Flatbread

Kale and Black Eyed Pea Soup
The second recipe that caught my eye in the book Superfood Kitchen was kale and black eyed pea soup. Once again I landed on this one because it didn't call for too many unusual ingredients and we had most everything already in stock in the kitchen. I have been wanting to work kale back into… Continue reading Kale and Black Eyed Pea Soup

Mexican Beans & Rice
Dinner two nights ago was the Mexican beans and rice variation from Beans and Rice 5 Ways at No Meat Athlete. I just love these recipes. They are so simple and good for you! I didn't have pinto beans so I used black beans instead. I also didn't have a lime or cilantro so I… Continue reading Mexican Beans & Rice

Cool Beans
The other day on I Eat Trees, Keri wrote that she wanted to start eliminating as much packaged food from her family's diet as possible. If she could make it, she wouldn't buy it. I commented that I would love to do the same thing, but that my issue is time. Right now I just… Continue reading Cool Beans

Popeye & Protein
It's so cold in Kansas today! I woke up and the radio said it was 5 degrees F outside. I had the hardest time getting out of bed. We turn the heater way down at night and pile on the blankets to save energy (and money) so the house is super cold in the mornings. … Continue reading Popeye & Protein

Not Homemade: Rice & Beans
Despite the title of my blog, I do not make everything homemade. I don't always have the time. So there are some products I like to keep on hand for quick lunches or dinners when I don't have time to make something. Recently I discovered this gem: Eden Organic canned rice & beans. There are a… Continue reading Not Homemade: Rice & Beans

Tuscan Bean Soup
I made the BEST soup this weekend! I got the recipe from a Reader’s Digest cookbook I’ve had for awhile and rarely use. It’s actually the owner of my ill-fated broccoli cheese soup recipe (see my post on Cheese Fondue). Ever since then I’ve sort of shunned it to the bottom of my cookbook pile.… Continue reading Tuscan Bean Soup
