| I've made this a few times and my husband likes it better than I do. It's good, but not great. That said, I used regular brown lentils instead of French lentils and just doubled the carrots instead of using parsnips, so perhaps I'd prefer if I followed the recipe properly. I liked it better when I used the ginger, but my husband didn't.
It's hearty and feels good for you. Very nutritious and freezes/reheats well. Good for winter/autumn lunches. |
| I didn't have any cardamom, so I skipped it and used walnuts instead of pecans because that's what I had on hand. I found that while the muffins were good warm, as all muffins should be, on the first day the molasses overpowered the taste, but by the second day the flavours melded and became quite tasty.
My preschooler son didn't car for them, but the rest of the family really enjoyed them. |
| This is a quick and easy chili which is incredibly delicious and nutritious. The quinoa is a great addition and really makes the meal interesting. Good flavour. I don't alter this recipe at all except adding a bit more beans and occasionally corn. Also freezes well, so handy to have for an extra quick meal. |
| I LOVE this soup. It's the most beautiful shade of red and incredibly tasty. The main ingredients are beets, carrots, and red lentils, so it is extremely healthy, too. I followed the recipe exactly except I didn't add miso (didn't have any) and I forgot to remove the bay leaves when I pureed the soup. It didn't matter. So very, very good. |
| A hearty, delicious vegetarian stew. It's very adaptable--the only ingredients I measure closely are the spices, and I usually add more beans, squash and corn. The recipe calls for Christmas Lima beans (which I have not been able to find dried in Edmonton) but suggests kidney, pinto, black or Swedish brown beans as alternatives; we use pinto.
It also freezes well so I always put some away for quick lunches. |
