Mexican Beans

Mexican Beans by Spicie Foodie

Frijoles,Beans are an essential part of Mexican food, I remember when I was growing up my Mom always had a pot on the stove or ready made in the refrigerator for our weekly meals. If you want to make good Mexican food you should learn how to make simple beans to work with that you can later add other ingredients or spices to. Although…

Healthy and Easy Vegan beet salad with prunes! by Helenscooking

Beets are like Cinderella, we think that they are not as delish as they are, we rarely cook them and generally, we think that this it is not essential for us. But in reality, there’s much more to it than we think. Beets provide antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxification support.In recent lab studies on human tumor cells,…

Vegan Coconut, Pumpkin and Red Lentil Soup

Vegan Coconut, Pumpkin and Red Lentil Soup by The Blender Girl

I have probably given this recipe to over 100 people. That is not an exaggeration. This soup is really that good! For those of you living in the United States, you will want to substitute sweet potato for the fresh pumpkin. I vary the greens every day depending on what I have available. Chopped green beans work really well. You can…

Creamy Vegan Potato Salad

Creamy Vegan Potato Salad by The Blender Girl

I recently shared this potato salad with my friends Kris, Michelle, Emily, Nicole, and my father-in-law, Bob; and the reaction was unanimous–“Oh Wow! I could eat this salad every day. This is a keeper. You need to put this on your site!” At the risk of appearing unashamedly self-congratulatory, I have to agree with my discerning…

Happy Peasant Soup

Happy Peasant Soup by The Blender Girl

Hearty, nourishing, delicious, nutritious, and dead easy to make. This red potato, onion and garlic broth, which I affectionately refer to, as my “Happy Peasant Soup” (do you like the smiley face I made in my photo?) is quite simply phenomenal. This phytochemical rich garlic broth will fight off any viral vampires you have to fight,…

It just doesn’t get much easier than this delicious summer pudding or custard. It can be prepared in less than 10 minutes (and that includes getting the ingredients out of your fridge), and is absolutely delicious. I got this recipe from my friend Alison about 10 years ago, and my snout has paid homage to her fabulous berry custard…

Vegan Cream of Spinach Soup

Vegan Cream of Spinach Soup by The Blender Girl

The best thing about this soup? It takes less than half an hour from chopping board to table; and is dead easy. Unlike starchy soups that need about 30-40 minutes to cook through, this soup only needs about 20 minutes. Just chop up your ingredients, bring to the boil, simmer, blend and serve. I can’t seem to go past using whole…

Vegan Lemon Asparagus Soup

Vegan Lemon Asparagus Soup by The Blender Girl

I have always been a fan of the ubiquitous potato and leek soup. I thought I would try expanding on that idea a little, and adding in some greens. This soup is just delicious. When I think about grilling asparagus, I always serve it with a generous squeeze of lemon juice. Why should this soup be any different? I started making this…

Split Pea Soup with Baby Purple Crusted Baked Potatoes

Split Pea Soup with Baby Purple Crusted Baked Potatoes by Kiki Thompson

Sorry it’s been so long since I’ve posted last. Things have been insanely busy around here. We had family in town for a month. I was also struggling to come up with recipes that were less fattening but still tasted good, so I needed that time as well to get my creative cooking skills into gear :) Anyway, last night I really wanted…

Brandied Citrus Marmalade (Sangria-style)

Brandied Citrus Marmalade (Sangria-style) by william ruiz

This is a recipe I came up with to do something uniquely different. The pieces of fruit are al dente and it's a nice textural change. It is also more along the lines of the traditional marmalade of old, in the fact that you do get some bitterness from the peels. Over all I was happy with it as I believe you too will be pleasantly…
