Italian Spinach SoupSuprise, surprise. Another amazing recipe adapted from Marcella Hazan's Essential's of Italian Cooking. This is one of my bibles. Not only did I love this spinach soup, but all four of my kids did too! Everyone had mutiple servings. We served it with simple sourdough toast, though Crostini (Italian croutons) is what Marcella… |

Creamy Lentil and Broccoli SoupThis 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 has a wonderful body and a great hearty flavor. If you haven't had sumac before as a seasoning, this is a great dish to try it with. Sumac is commonly used in the middle east to… |

Marinated AsparagusThis versatile recipe made with fresh asparagus can be made year around. Serve it cold or warm as side with any meal. My favorite way to serve this is grilling it. It produces rave reviews every time. Even from guests who may not be fans of asparagus. |

Warm Brussles Sprouts Salad with Almonds and ParmesanI adapted this from a Oprah recipe. She makes the salad with raw brussel sprouts. I couldn't quite trust that, so I blanched them lightly before slicing. This produced a delcious and slightly warm salad. I should have tried some raw and some cooked to see which method is best. Maybe one of you can do that and let us know? |

Creole Vegetable and Beef SoupThis was a tasty soup that we gladly ate two nights in a row. I added quite a bit of extra creole seasoning to my bowl, because I love the flavor. This soup would still have been wonderful without the meat (I scooped much of mine into our kids' bowls), but I'd keep the meat in in if you are not vegetarian as it adds depth to the… |

Basic Artichoke RecipeThis basic artichoke recipe is the perfect side dish as it complements almost any main course. It's flagrant and delicious. I used to shy away from artichokes because I did not know how to prepare them. Once I learned, I realized it was not so difficult and had missed out on such a great veggie! Hope you enjoy the recipe. |

Baby Cauliflower SoupPacked with healthy veggies, a soup for the kids. This soup I have made for my infant and toddler. Try it. You might like it. Hopefully, more importantly, they will like it! If you have trouble getting them to eat it, which I doubt, then freeze it in an ice cube tray and take out a cube and mix into your kids mashed potatoes or… |

Stuffed PeppersAre you trying to stick to your New Year’s resolution of eating healthier? This tasty, easy recipe will help you do just that. We love stuffed peppers at our house and typically stuff them with ground beef and rice. I substituted the beef and rice with black beans and couscous. The results were amazing! |
