After reading the following article on soy products I decided to give it another shot. 10 Things to Know About Tofu @ Mark's Daily Apple I found… Continue reading Tempeh Curry

Dowdy But Delicious
In the blogging world of fabulous food photography and recipes, this lowly soup is not going to win any awards. But isn't taste what matters most when it comes to cooking? Last night I cooked up a batch of Lentil Dumpling Soup from Hillbilly Housewife. It seems I only make it once every year or… Continue reading Dowdy But Delicious
Good Seed Crackers
The final recipe in my week of recipes from the book Superfood Kitchen is Good Seed Crackers. I have always wanted to try my hand at homemade crackers and since I already had the chia seed on hand from the Lemon Coconut Bars, I only needed to pick up two ingredients for this recipe, hemp… Continue reading Good Seed Crackers

It's Thursday, which means it's almost the weekend. Whew! Last night I meant to write up a What is it Wednesday post after dinner, but I completely forgot!
