Mostly photos of food. Maybe some recipes, maybe some other things. It's a grab bag really.
Quiche from a couple of weeks ago. Used yogurt instead of milk and cheese. Has shredded zucchini inside and topped with thin slices of cherry tomatoes and sweet onions.

Asparagus bisque.  Made with red chard, baby spinach, and purple asparagus!  Subbed out almond milk for oat milk and almond flour for all purpose.  also breaded and fried the asparagus tops with almond flour.  Finished with a healthy drizzle of avocado oil and eaten with hunks of a sea salt olive oil baguette!

I started this to break my addiction to sweets.  

So far, I haven’t really craved any cookies or chocolate, but oh man do I miss bread!

A take on Andrea Reusing’s Shrimp, Pea, and Rice stew
My version has shrimp, peas, asparagus, watercress, and mint.  I also subbed the rice for a healthier red quinoa.

A Butter Ad That Will Get You To Eat More Vegetables

Those northern Europeans are serious about their butter; many countries typically leave in more fat than we do in the U.S. Some would argue that makes for a better product.

But butter, and all that fat in it, is turning into enemy No. 1 in the fight against obesity. Denmark, for one, has become the first country in the world to tax butter and other sources of saturated fat.

So if you’re a Danish butter company, it’s probably a wise move to downplay butter’s centrality at dinnertime. That’s exactly what Lurpak has done in this ad for the U.K. market, featuring its new “lightest” spreadable butter.

Clams in a spicy coconut-lime broth. 
Modified slightly: no clam juice, no tomatoes, sweet onions in place of shallots, added thyme, and 3 dried red chilies. 
Result = B/ B+
