Butternut Squash soup is a pretty common plan when you pickup that squash from the pantry. It’s a great blank-slate to adapt with your favorite flavors. Feel free to use this recipe as a springboard, of sorts.
It’s a thick purée soup, so any added texture is great. Add croutons (from the site ) or roasted pumpkin seeds, cranberries or even chopped walnuts. Don’t forget the yogurt or coconut milk swirl…it’s an added bonus!
Beets are a fantastic earthy veg. They have a beautiful purple-red hue, which unfortunately can also be a frustrating stain on your hands or cutting board. This tip helps keep some of that color contained and results in a beautifully roasted beet. Ready to be used and eaten.
Tomatoes, cheese and dough. It’s like pizza, but elevated. A galette is a simple way to make a pie – simple folded over crust. Rustic and no-fuss.
This recipe comes from the NYTimes. It’s hands down delish.
Earthy, warm, comforting. Plus, it’s not difficult. Just let the stew simmer together for full flavor.
Turmeric is an excellent warming spice and has great health benefits, but you could use a combination of cumin and ginger if needed. Or even paprika, the flavors will be altered, so taste and adjust to suit your needs.
Serve stew with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream, fresh basil or cilantro leaves and a warm pita or naan bread.
Inside-Out Pork Dumplings
A simple recipe for making a pretty decent and filling Korean beef bowl.
Shaving the asparagus and thinly slicing the snap peas makes great texture for a fresh take on a salad. The lemon & herb mix compliments the raw veggies. If radishes available, they can be thinly chopped and added.
This salad can be made ahead to let the flavor meld, or it can be served immediately. Either way you won’t be remiss.
Serve this salad with a smoky steak, juicy burger, even a fried/poached egg!
Serving size 2-4, easily doubled if making for a crowd.
