Today's recipe has been a favorite of mine for MANY years. I can't even tell you how far back it goes as a traditional dish in our family. It is extremely simple to make. You need very few ingredients and a Julienne Slicer or a julienne peeler -- both are worth your investment. Here is my old faithful -- I use it at least once a week: Carrot … Read More
Although I had grand plans for yesterday's dinner, our plans had to be changed at the last moment to accommodate our lives... Well, life does happen when it happens... The unbelievable amounts of snow (as you can see it from the post before this one) was piled up in our drive way, and was threatening to flood our front door, as the snow was starting to melt. Hubby and I … Read More
It is amazing how easy cooking can be. A couple of days ago my husband came home from the farm with a load of tomatoes and green beans. Unlike most, I do not look for way to cook my vegetables, but rather bring out the flavors I like so much, by combining them with each other, or even eating them the way God created them—straight from the patch, with nothing added.

I know, I know -- I teach a low fat diet, but I am about to load your plate with a guilty pleasure -- manicotti! While my vegan manicotti recipe is much lower in fat than the traditional rendition of this recipe, I shamelessly use vegan cheese in it. Since I make this dish only about once a year, I have no regrets doing it. My husband loves it. And it is especially … Read More
I love nothing more than 100% guilt-free desserts. However, once in a while, especially for special occasions, I think it is totally ok to indulge in a little guilty pleasure. This delicious pear and granola muffin recipe is one such exception. While it might not be totally guilt free, it is totally worth the occasional calorie splurge. Make it. Enjoy it.
