Kitchbitch is going out on a limb this year and participating in the Warrior Dash. While it’s only half the distance of the Holyoke St. Patrick’s Road Race, it’s loaded with obstacles like: un-pathed forest, trenches, tires,wooden climbing wall, a scrap yard, mud slopes, barbed wire, and fire. I can’t...
A little bit ago we tried out that recipe for Curried Cauliflower Soup and loved it so I figured that since cauliflower and broccoli are so similar that the same recipe could be altered just a bit to make Creamy Broccoli Soup. It worked! This soup is big on flavor. ...
If you’re anything like me then until now you’ve only ever had graham crackers from a box, off the grocery store shelf, and thought that they were fantastic (especially smeared with a little bit of peanut butter and maybe even a drizzle of honey). If that’s the truth, and you...
When I made the spicy coconut shrimp recently, I was in need of a side dish. Since the shrimp were being served on top of rice, I didn’t want a pasta side, and I couldn’t figure what veg what go perfectly, so I went in search of something that would...

I’m a sucker for well-prepared lentils (as is my sister) so when I came across a recipe for chili made with lentils rather than kidney beans I Had to try it (and have my sister over for dinner, of course). It made for a perfect dinner on a cold night. ...
I could not have been more impressed with this recipe. The dish is packed with color and flavor and nutrients and wow! This is a very different take on enchiladas than I’ve ever had before, and I love it. When I make them next, I may add onions and mushrooms...
This recipe is reminiscent of fall with the use of fresh apples and cinnamon, but hearty for winter with those steel-cut oats. It’s not too sweet at all, just the sweetness of the apples & raisins, really. I think that the recipe would do grandly with the addition of walnuts...
So when I’m complaining in March about my weight while running up hills in the Holyoke St. Patrick’s Day Road Race, some please remind me about these cookies and my decision to make them… and to eat them…. You see, my neighbor has been wonderful this winter in helping me...
