This is a great, hearty soup with a wonderful flavor. It has enough vegetables and legumes to make it healthy, with some meat added for flavor. We served it with a side salad and artisan bread. Enjoy!

Moroccan Fish Stew Recipe

Moroccan Fish Stew Recipe by John Spottiswood

Alton Brown Lentil Soup

Alton Brown Lentil Soup by John Spottiswood

I adapted this recipe from one by Alton Brown. I added spinach, potatoes, and scallions and removed grains of paradise. Our whole family really enjoyed this recipe.

Super Smoky Southwestern Chili Beans

Super Smoky Southwestern Chili Beans by Smokinhotchef

Don't you just love a great chili with beans recipe? So do I! I have a go to recipe for chili that my family loves and this recipe is a variation. My usual chili recipe is provocative of warm and cozy days possibly containing rain, but not necessarily. This recipe invokes the light and refreshing fragrances of the days of Spring…
