This is another option for a Taco Night filling. You can use it in your homemade tortilla shells or I personally enjoy it on my romaine lettuce boats. It is a meal you leave feeling satisfied but not stuffed. It is such a light simple meal that the whole family will enjoy. Mine does! You…
November Seasonal Foods
Taco Veggie Bowl
This is a meal that I threw together one day because it was getting late, I didn’t want a lot of clean up and it was stuff I had on hand. It has now become one of our favorite meals!! Super easy, quick and pretty healthy with all the veggies. If you have a Trader…
Kale Marinated Greens
I found this recipe in an issue of World Health News. With the many ingredients it is a very healing dish for your body. Everything is raw but when marinated takes on such a great flavor! This batch lasted me about 3 days with a side salad for my lunch. You will need kale greens,…
Raw Ranch Dip
Get ready to have your mind blown!!! This dip, that could possibly be a salad dressing, is amazing! It is healthy and has NO DAIRY but taste like it does. I found this at a Whole Foods Raw Food cooking class. You just have to try it once to taste what I am talking about….
Sour Cream Chicken and Veggies
Here is a family favorite! Hubby approves and kids approve! There are no leftovers in this house after this meal! I got this recipe from the book Eating Your Way to Good Health by Doug Kaufmann. I have changed it around from the original just a bit with how I cook it. I bake the…
Pakistani Kima
I found this recipe at Wellness Mama around 2013 and it became a favorite dish I made after the birth of my son because it was simple and easy to make with little clean up. Any mother loves a one pot dish! The only thing that takes time with this dish is the dicing of…
Homemade Elderberry Syrup
Who has heard of elderberry syrup? I kept reading about how good it was for boosting your immune system and how it can shorten the length of a cold by 3 days. I started to buy it at my local health food store a few years ago and would take it and give it to…
Quinoa Stuffed Peppers
This is a great meal but I maybe only make it when peppers are in season because it does take a bit of time to make. It is so worth it though and the kids are coming around to this dish. They personally like the peppers to be raw, so I put a few on…
Turkey Noodle Soup
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Did you save those turkey bones?? I hope so, because we will be using the bones and the leftover turkey to make this flavorful soup using some seasonal Fall leeks! I make this during the year using whole chickens. You can find that recipe here. So first thing is to make sure…
Roasted Garlic
I mainly only use this recipe when I am making my Refried Pinto Beans because it is needed in that recipe. When I do make it, I always have extra and enjoy eating the garlic plain. I could see making garlic bread as well with the roasted garlic. It sure does make the house smell…
