Creamy Lentil and Broccoli Soup by John SpottiswoodThis is a creamy, flavorful, and incredibly healthy soup. The next time you're in the mood for split pea soup (also very healthy), try this instead.

It's very different from the chewy texture you get when cooking regular barley over a shorter period.

Plan on making this salsa for 6 or… |

These will make a beautiful display for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Try making them with the Pumpkin Cookies with Icing that I posted. They make a beautiful combination (see photo together). But if you just have time to… |
