As if Black Bean soup isn’t already good enough, I added Kale and Mushrooms to push it over the top!! I started with a Black Bean soup recipe from allrecipes.com (link), and changed it up a bit. What I ended up with is below, and it’s been a huge hit with our friends and families so far! It’s a hearty soup that covers 4 of the 6 GBOMBS (Greens, Beans, Onions,…
What? Yup, that’s right, apple guacamole! It actually sounds more complicated than it is. I basically make a traditional guacamole and add diced apples. We’ve been making mango guacamole in the summer time for years. I was recently making guacamole to bring to a party and I didn’t feel right adding mangos with snow on the ground, so I went for a fall fruit. The result is something pretty special! …
This one is a REAL crowd pleaser. You could serve this to anyone and I would expect them to like it. It’s got that tangy flavor that I remember from so many years ago, and the texture works really well. The kids like it, my parents like it, and my friends like it. Give it a try for yourself and I think you will like it too!! The recipe is…
This dish is soooo easy and so delish it is a staple in our house these days. 50% of our kids like it! Okay, that is only one kid, but that is still really good! This started as my sister-in-law’s friend’s recipe, but we have modified it qua bit: We usually eat it over steamed or raw baby greens. Yum!

Today I put apples on everything! They are so sweet they liven up everything. Tonight we made veggie pizza with apples and butternut squash soup with kale and apples. Yum!
Veggie stuffed peppers that even my meat eating Dad gave a thumbs up to! Peppers stuffed with stewed tomatoes, onions, brown rice, baby bok choy and broccoli. Delish!
This pesto recipe was so good and made from healthy ingredients that it is forcing me out of my blog retirement. I usually get so much basil from my weekly farm share I don’t know what to do with it. The recipe was so easy! We had it for dinner one night over pasta and veggies and then ate it as a dip with baby carrots. We all had it…
I got this great little sushi kit at the Basil Bandwagon last night. Anthony rolled up these fabulous rolls and Evan inhaled them! This was a last minute thing and look how colorful it turned out! We had beat & avocado roll, avocado & mango roll, beat & sweat potato roll and a sweet potato & avocado roll. Yum! Next time we will make it healthier and get the kit…
I am not sure how this is going to taste, but look at the colors! Steamed red cabbage, spinach, black beans and corn salsa. Not very kid friendly, but maybe if you stick it in soft taco?
Sometimes I have such a backlog of greens from the farm I just put a whole bunch in a pot with a can of diced tomatoes, some corn for sweetness and a little Italian seasoning. It comes out so good! Even Ev commented on how good it smelled while I was cooking it tonight. Let’s see if he actually eats some for dinner tomorrow. This batch has kale, spinach and…
