Hearty Leek and Potato Soup Lately I’m big into Yukon Gold potatoes. I love the color. I love the texture. Where russet potatoes can be kind of grainy in a soup, Yukon Gold potatoes are creamy, and add a wonderful gold color. Seattle is cold and rainy these days, so today seemed like a good day to [...] Tasty Brown Rice and Broccoli When I think back to the days when I was raising my kids, I wish I had done a better job of cooking nutritious foods. My idea of rice then was a box of quick cooking white rice. Hmmmm. I realize we do the best we can at the time, and [...] Flank Steak Stuffed with Creamy Goat Cheese and Spinach I hate the dentist! Well, I don’t really hate my dentist, I just hate what he does for a living. Believe me, I realize I’m being a big baby. Anyway, if you haven’t guessed by now, I have to have two crowns done today, and I’m less than [...] Petite Green Beans with Sweet Onions, Walnuts and Creamy Gorgonzola I’m such a veggie lover, that I could make a meal out of what most people would think of as their side dish. Since my husband’s gone fishing, that’s exactly what I did with this green bean dish. Coscto sells the best tender, petite green beans. I [...] Chicken Thighs, Asparagus and Mushrooms What do I like best about this meal? I can make it in one skillet, have a meal complete with protein and lots of colorful veggies, and it’s low in calories and Weight Watchers points. Who wouldn’t like that? I have to say I miss my fresh herbs. While the dried herbs [...] Spicy, Smoky, Creamy Cauliflower Soup I have the perfect fall soup for you. The recipe came from Fine Cooking, and I have to say, it was fantastic! The soup had just the right amount of heat, and the combination of seasonings gave the soup a spicy, smoky flavor. I had some orange bell peppers I needed to use [...] Delicious Broccoli and Mushrooms Cooking with color is an easy challenge for me. I’m a veggie lover, so it’s not too hard to find something I can make after work that has at least two colors of the veggie world in it. Tonight it was broccoli and mushrooms. The star of the show was my husband’s Steelhead [...] Fresh and Spicy Tomatillo Salsa Fresh is best! That’s my motto, and I think it’s a good one. I so much prefer a Pico de gallo over a jarred salsa any day, and who wouldn’t? Everything in the dish is chopped from fresh, whole veggies and herbs. Sounds like it would take a lot of time [...] Gingery Green Soup This recipe from 101 Cookbooks intrigued me. Green soup? I love healthy food, but I wasn’t sure if this recipe was just too healthy to make a satisfying meal. Surprise! Sweet potato provides the substance the soup needs, and of course, it fits my cooking with color challenge perfectly. All those healthy greens add [...] Melon and Berries Power Breakfast I’m a big believer in eating breakfast, and I love this breakfast because it gives me a good boost for the day. The yogurt came from my yogurt maker, so it’s free of additives or preservatives. It’s so fresh and creamy. Add some sweet fruit and crunchy walnuts, who wouldn’t want that [...]
