This season I’ve been trying a new soup recipe each week. I’ve eaten more soup in this one winter than I ever ate in my entire life combined, and I’m loving it. Butternut squash soups are easy, and they’re also easy to change up. You can add chilies to make...
This dish is packed with some amazing flavor. I made the full recipe and served it as a side dish, then brought small containers to work all week after for snacks. The flavor was more amazing each day. One important thing to note is that if you’re eating collard greens...
What this soup lacks in color it makes up for in flavor. The parsnip has that earthy mouthfeel that carrots carry in their scent, but doesn’t come through in their taste. The onions round out the flavor, and the maple sweetens the dish. If you own a food processor with...
I was in a small grocery store in town the other day looking for a cucumber and they had none. What I spied in its stead was a package of organic blueberries. I couldn’t say no. It’s the beginning of March and I haven’t had a blueberry that wasn’t frozen...
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. ...

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...
