This soup is great for cold winter nights just like cheap lentil soup or chicken stew with carrots. The soup packs a punch with its spiciness, but you can remove the seeds and ribs to make a non-spicy version. (more…)
By the time I remembered to snap my eggplant parmeseasn, this was all that was left.
My backyard garden produced three eggplants this summer, two of which ripened within a few days of each other. I used both to make the following recipe for Eggplant Parmesan, which I found at AllRecipes.com. I modified it slightly to make it easier to cook. You can make this a vegetarian dish by using a meatless sauce. It tasted wonderful and was very easy to prepare. This recipe serves 3-4 and takes 50 minutes start to finish.
Ingredients
2-3 medium to large eggplants, peeled and sliced 1/2 inch thick

Think clipping coupons is silly? Jen at Balancing Beauty and Bedlam will prove you wrong with her post on stockpiling sale items. She does admit, however, that using coupons is only worthwhile 8% of the time. Yikes!

Have you noticed how incredibly cheap strawberries are right now? They are one of many fruits in season so the prices are fantastic. I’ve paid as little as $.79 for a pound! Here is a quick and easy recipe to serve fresh strawberries as a dessert or snack.
1 package strawberries, sliced into quarters with tops removed
1/2 juicy lemon, remove seeds and squeeze over berries
1-2 T powdered sugar, depending on how ripe your berries are
1 T chopped mint leaves
You can serve over ice cream if you want but they are delicious by themselves!
What is your favorite strawberry recipe?
