With rising prices and uncertain fresh food supply, I’ve been turning to simple meals, with easy to keep on hand ingredients. Sweet potatoes are the perfect example. Long shelf life. Very nutritious. And usually inexpensive. This easy recipe using frozen cheese tortellini pasta with a few handfuls of fresh spinach offers a delicious supper with a rather pretty presentaion. Making it even simple as far […]
This week I’m in plant-based heaven again. I was enjoying a weekend morning cocooning in bed doing catch-up on some reading while having the TV on for some background noise and what do I hear?…’leftovers’? Got my attention it did. The recipe had a name very similar to something I made for you a while ago…MUJADDARA which is what it’s called in Middle Eastern culinary circles. […]
Imagine, if you will, perfectly roasted and lightly spiced cauliflower nestled in a puddle of creamy lemony hummus. Well right here is where imagination becomes reality. I was feeling inspired with my recent creation using Urfa Biber, my latest spice obsession and decided to continue this love story to throw together (almost literally) something plant-based for supper tonight. Here is the link and where I […]
Good day to you all. I have for you my third and final recipe for using Smothered Cabbage. In case you missed number one and two you can click back for them here SONJA’S KALPUDDING (Swedish Meatloaf) and here HOT and SOUR SMOTHERED CABBAGE and RICE SOUP. So now on to today’s bit of deliciousness…. With another 4 cups of Smothered Cabbage you can create this rather fancy […]
Rainy day in the camper so the perfect time for indoor games. I’ve been wanting to try out this recipe for vegan sausages…a bit more effort and time than I would usually take….so why not today? And I’m doing it off-grid-ish. The original recipe requires a food processor so am using my little hand powered processor. Takes up so little space. Not a lot of […]
Inspired by Rita’s Romanian Meatball with that tasty tomato soup sauce and since we were at that time still under 14-day quarantined following crossing provincial borders after selling of our sailboat, I foraged in my garden and pantry for dinner. One jar of roasted red peppers and a bunch of greens became the base for a delicious meatless meal. Trying to use as few dishes as […]
Did you think I’ve reached the epitome of galley ridiculousness? Well you may be right, but oh my sweet garden these were SO good! How did these pumpkin blossoms come to be present in my land kitchen you may ask? Boat related. Our dear sailboat R.E.D. is no longer ours as she now resides in the great white north…Yukon, to be specific. We’ve been having conversations […]
I’m getting all fancy with my veggies in the galley today. Not time consuming fancy. Nor am I using weird and wonderful ingredients. But by the time I finished making, then consuming this ultra-delicious dish, it felt very fancified. I even poured us a glass of crisp white wine to go with to feel extra fancy pants fancy. A lowly head of cauliflower, a package […]
Since we have embarked on our meatless/vegan-ish journey and since putting my request out there for my readers to send in their favourite recipes to challenge me in my little galley, I have received almost exclusively vegan recipes. It would seem that a good number of you are pursuing life with the same mind set as we are…that is…reducing animal protein, eating less meat, while […]
This was fun to put together. We love Mexican cuisine and when I received this recipe from one of my Galley Peeps, Jeanne, I thought it would be the perfect dish to prepare in my Omnia stove top oven. The fact that it is vegetarian made it the perfect fit for our current dining life style. As Jeanne mentioned in her note to me, you […]
