Carrot Raisin Salad
One of my favorite summertime salads is carrot raisin salad. It is creamy and fresh. With all the parties, get-to-gethers, pot lucks, barbecues, and what not’s that the summer brings….a good creamy side dish is always a welcome thing! What you need: 4 cups carrots, shredded 1 cups raisins 1/3 cup salad dressing, miracle whip …
Texas Sized Turkey Egg Rolls
Yes, I said turkey. We love egg rolls! I recently tried my hand at making my own egg rolls, it went so well that I tried it again, this time with ground turkey.

Sweet Carrot Pickles
I’m sad to report that the giant carrots seem to be all gone now. For two weekly visits in a row (last week and this week), I have been unable to find the giant carrots at the Farmer’s Market. My son thinks they are freaks of nature, he has not been enjoying the über carrots. …

Meatless Monday: Making veggie stock, via my slow cooker
I’m making homemade veggie stock. Veggie stock is a great base for meatless soups and stews. It’s chocked full of veggie goodness and way tastier than plain water. What the heck do you put in a veggie stock? If that’s your question, the answer is simple….what do you have? I keep veggie scraps (your recipe …
Garden Gab Week Meh.
Did I say week Meh? Yes, that’s what I said. This week (week 11), besides one bright spot that involved a carrot (more on that in a bit), my garden and I both say Meh. MEH! Why Meh you might be asking yourself, or maybe you’re wondering what’s Meh mean… Wikipedia defines Meh as-“Meh” is …
