Tuscan Grilled Veggies
This is a party pleaser. When I make Tuscan Grilled Veggies I make a TON of them & platter them up. Feel free to choose whatever veggies you have in season around you & add to the platter with lots of excellent pickled additions you find in stores around you. Marinated Artichokes, Peppers, Olives, etc […]
Za’atar Labneh Roasted Garlic Dip
Ooooh! This recipe is a perfect choice to take to a holiday party – you wanna know why? Because you really want to eat it all yourself, & taking it means you get to eat it slathered all over a few slices of pita & walk away. I don’t think I would be walking away […]
Forbidden Rice Soup
Forbidden Rice Soup is purple. It’s a comforting kind of purple, with lots of veggies peeking out of the soup, but purple-ish grey is not a color that many are accustomed to when looking into their soup bowl. So be prepared.

Shwarma Roasted Beets

Broiled Eggplant, Tomatoes & Lentils
Some foods make me feel like a cat; I just wanna curl up around the bowl & purr. My recipe for Broiled Eggplant, Tomatoes & Lentils is just such a food. It’s easy to cook, hearty, healthy & a family pleaser. Awesome with some hearty bread, in a Buddha Bowl, as one of many appetizers […]
