  • Fajitas with DIY Seasoning

    We had a container of cheap fajita seasoning from the International market down the street but found out it had MSG in it. Today I was making fajitas and realized we had no seasoning. I found this recipe online and followed it loosely (ie. not really measuring but using these ingredients in roughly these proportions) and it turned out pretty well.

  • Potato-Tomato Gratin

    I found this recipe in Aug/Sept 98 Canadian Gardening magazine; whenever I am leafing through magazines the recipes always catch my eye.  It seemed like an odd combination to have tomatoes and potatoes together but we find it quite tasty.

    We enjoyed it for supper tonight.

  • Carrot Soup

    We got this recipe from the back of a children's book we took out of the library and adapted it a little. Alleia ate it quite well after all the excitement of making it.

  • Surprise Sausage Bundles

    Erika made these for us during one of their visits.  They are really tasty and loved by those who enjoy sauerkraut. This recipe has inspired a sauerkraut/sausage pizza.  We'll add that recipe another time.

  • David Dawson's Kale and Black Beans on Rice

    "I cooked some black beans last night for a lunch burrito today...and made sure there was enough left over for this. I hadn't flavored the beans while cooking yesterday. After cooling and pouring off all the water, except just barely enough to cover them, I added garlic powder, onion powder, olive oil, balsamic and oregano. Today, after they'd been marinating for a while, they were so delicious that I could have had them over some white rice and called that dinner. Instead..."

  • Raita

    This is an unusually, but very good flavored yogurt.  This recipe came from a cooking class Erica took at our local co-op, taught by Rupa Dash.
