From our Archives….an oldie but goodie Bethel recipe. Add some zing to your spring mix salad leaves. This makes 2 cups.
Chocolate Mousse Bars
With so few ingredients, it’s important to use a chocolate you would be perfectly happy to snack out of hand. The instant espresso powder is optional but adds depth to this simple dessert. Chill the bars in the fridge for at least 2 hours before eating. To cut beautiful, neat slices, use a long sharp knife warmed in hot water and wiped clean before each cut.
Winter-time Beef Stew
Low and slow is the name of this recipes game. It’s perfect for the chilly winter days. Beef surrounded by lots of mushrooms and carrots. This makes enough stew for 4-6 persons. Serve over potatoes or noddles, and a crusty piece of bread to sop up the broth.
Sausage, Cannellini, and Kale Soup
Time for a hearty soup! The best way to eat kale is by drowning it in soup with lots of tasty sausage. This comes together really quickly. Breaking up the beans is key so their starch thickens the broth.
Creamed Kale
Like creamed spinach, this dish makes a great accompaniment for a variety of meals. Very simple but creamy and savory, easy to go with turkey or chicken or as a pasta sauce! In fact, plan for two meals out of one; a side dish one night and pasta topping the next.

Panang Curry
This recipe from the Akha kitchen was shared by Sister and Chef Jaruwan during a Thai online cooking class. This winter warming curry uses commissary and pantry ingredients. Makes 2 servings
Mongolian Beef
Do you miss P.F. Chang’s? I’ve only been there twice, so no, I don’t really miss it, lol. But that said, they do have a pretty good Mongolian Beef!!
Garam Masala or Italian Spiced Beef Koftas
These small meat patties are flavor packed with garam masala. A spice combination that originates from India. They cook up quickly on the grill, but can also be cooked in a hot skillet on the stovetop. This recipe can be easily doubled and would be a great crowd pleaser, easy for people to take and safely “distance” ????.
Serve over a pile of saffron rice, tomato+onion+cucumber salad and yogurt+cucumber sauce. Don’t forget the warmed pita or naan!
Apple Galette
“Galette” – sounds impressive! This an impressive yet surprisingly easy dessert to make using the abundance of apples we have in the pantry.
The dough is made by hand.
