Homemade Hot Sauce
Over the last year I’ve been making batches of my own hot sauce. I have a strong affinity for spicy foods and have always enjoyed various hot sauces. Some of my favorites include Melinda’s Habanero variations, Tapatio, Sriracha, and Garlic Tabasco to mention a few. There are always 3 to 10 bottles of something spicy in our house.
Vegan Lentil Chili
Last night I made a big pot of delicious lentil chili that turned out amazingly yummy. I saw the original vegan lentil chili recipe over on the Whole Foods Market site, but I made some adjustments to it which I feel enhanced the flavors and made it even better. As a vegetarian, lentils provide a great source of protein and fiber, in addition to being really healthy for our bodies. This is a very simple recipe that leaves plenty of room to experiment in making your own favorite style.
Lentil and Kale Veggie Salad
A few nights ago I made a delicious salad using black lentils, fresh kale, and veggies. I was really experimenting with what we had a home along with a few fresh ingredients from the farmers market. I had a package of bamboo roots from the asian market which are a little like artichoke hearts or hearts of palm but firmer, I combined it with farm fresh carrots, cucumbers, and feta cheese to make for a nice earthy meal.
Raw Vegetable Salad
In the warm summer days, nothing is more refreshing than a cool raw vegetable salad. The crisp crunch of vegetables that have marinated in a vinegar base dressing for a little while help cool your body while feeding it good nutrition. The same day I made the roasted squash soup, I also made a raw veggie salad.
Pickled Cauliflower
Lately I’ve been on a cauliflower kick and it has become another favorite vegetable that I’ve come to throughly enjoy. It wasn’t a popular vegetable in my childhood, like many I would avoid it, and even in my younger adult years I never appreciated it. It wasn’t until I started to discover Aloo Gobi at Indian restaurants, a dish that combines cauliflower and potatoes with curry based Indian dry spices.
Awesome Roasted Beets
Beets are one of those rare root vegetables that people either love or hate. I’m one of those that love beets, I’ll take them anyway I can get them, canned, boiled, roasted, fried, pickled, and definitely juiced. I always pick up fresh beets at the local farmers market, usually both red and gold beets. My favorite ways of consuming the beet roots are roasted or juiced, the top greens I usually sauté with garlic, herbs, and wine as a side dish or mixed into a another dish such as a quiche in place of chard. Here is my recipe for delicious roasted beets that makes for an excellent side dish to any meal.
Killer Grilled Pineapple
Grilled fruit often comes as a surprise to many people, but it’s usually quite delicious. Adding some simple seasonings or marinade before grilling it will often enhance the fruit, bringing out the natural flavors to make for a wonderful side dish or a delightful desert. Grilled pineapple is one that works exceptionally well to enhance your grilled meals. Every time I grill now I have to include this grilled pineapple recipe, it’s so yummy!
