Colorful, delicious curry! I started developing this easy recipe several years ago. I recall making it several times, adjusting the seasonings and refining the instructions, but never being quite satisfied. It went on the back burner, so to speak, for a few years. Long enough ago that I can’t remember what put the idea in…

Three-Bean Chili For A Crowd (Slow Cooker)
Nothing beats a hot bowl of chili on a blustery winter day. Plenty of things are tied, mind you, such as Homemade Hot Cocoa, French Honey Bread, and Beef Stew. But did you ever notice that chili is just as delicious in hot weather? There’s something about spicy food that makes you feel warmer in the winter and…
Garlicky Pasta With Beans and Broccoli Rabe
This is one of our favorite Meatless Monday dishes. So much flavor for so little effort! It’s an adaptation of a recipe I first saw on Smitten Kitchen, one of my favorite food blogs. I rarely tweak anything Deb publishes, as she’s brilliant and always spot-on. Really, all I’ve done is add the beans for…
Yellow-Eye Soup
Far, far better than Navy Bean Soup! By several orders of magnitude, in my not-so-humble opinion. No false modesty here, this stuff is incredibly yummy! And I do have my chief tester’s opinion to back me up. He loves to play the guessing game, where he tries to guess the ingredients in my recipes. He’s getting quite skilled at it….
Black Bean Enchiladas
Happy Meatless Monday, a day in advance! You will surely be happy eating these hearty enchiladas. We were almost done with dinner before my chief tester noticed there was no meat. They’re that good. They go great with Sweet & Spicy Pickled Peppers if you actually have any left. So many meatless recipes end up not being…
Green Tomato and Lentil Stew
Here it is, the first week in October, and there is sill plenty left in my garden to harvest. My Swiss Chard plant is almost as big as I am, my 2nd cucumber planting has just started to produce, the scarlet runner beans are still flowering, and there are tons of green tomatoes. Realistically, even an…
Black Bean Veggie Spuds
It was Monday. We got home that Sunday night from a trip – well, when I say “Sunday night” I mean really early Monday morning. I think I fell asleep around 01:30, & got up at 06:00. Did I feel like cooking dinner? Not really. Did I feel like I needed to eat healthy? Oh,…
Spelt-Butterbean Salad
I came up with this as an accompaniment to Spicy Ginger Miso Chicken Thighs. Whole grains go with almost anything, and I had some ginger left over from the chicken recipe. Then I threw in a bunch of veggies I had in the fridge that I needed to use up; the result was quite tasty! It’s quite hearty, too, and…
