Nov 01 2019

Easy to make creamy tomato soup with cauliflower recipe, ready in 35 minutes. This homemade soup uses cans of crushed tomatoes and a whole head of cauliflower to make it a healthy dinner the entire family will love. No milk needed.

The Best Tomato Soup!

My husband, not a tomato soup addict, went back to the pot 3 times when I made this for dinner. Needless to say he’s now a tomato soup addict and is asking me when I’m going to make this soup again. That night for dinner, my 2 year old daughter was licking her lips and demanding “More soup Mommy!”.

I’m not sure there’s better reviews than that!

This recipe for pasta with cauliflower is a simple, satisfying dish! Rotini pasta noodles are tossed in a creamy parmesan cheese sauce with steamed cauliflower and lettuce. A quick, easy and delicious dinner that’s perfect for busy weeknights!

Pasta is my go-to meal choice around here these days, mainly because I know that my entire family will happily eat it any night of the week! Best of all, this meal is on the table in less than half an hour, and the delightfully creamy sauce is made with just a handful of ingredients! How can you go wrong with that?

So here’s how this soup happened. I was sent a eggplant in my weekly vegetable subscription box. What should I make? Sure, I can make my Veggie Nuggets but I wanted something more comforting for a Fall night.

Dairy Free Mashed Potatoes

It’s been 11 days without cheese or milk.

11 days.

Let’s rewind a bit before I demand (nicely) that you offer some support (I need it).

I’ve decided to try to go dairy free to help with some health issues, none that I will go into detail about until I know if it actually works for me or not.

Going dairy free is something that has been brought up to me multiple times in passing and readings and finally I woke up and decided “let’s do this”.

Cheese is something I love dearly (let’s be real) so all of a sudden saying goodbye to cheesy casseroles, mac and cheese, pizza and simple cheese slices hasn’t been easy, but at the same time it hasn’t been impossible.

10 MINUTE, EASY Vegetable Lo Mein! This simple recipe uses dry lo mein noodles and lots of vegetables to make a healthy dish that tastes just like your favorite Chinese restaurant! I love that the authentic sauce is made with basic pantry ingredients!

Easy Lo Mein Recipe

There’s been one favorite Chinese dish that’s been hard for me to conquer in the kitchen over the years, lo mein. I love the noodles, the sauce and all the fresh vegetables that are chopped up in it. I love ordering a plate full of lo mein and shocking everyone as I eat every single noodle. I love lo mein.

From the Chinese restaurant to my own kitchen has been hard though. First you have to find the right noodles, and then you have to cook them just right. The most important part is making the sauce. The sauce needs to taste authentic while gently coating the noodles and vegetables.

10 Minute Lo Mein Recipe

But finally… finally…. I got it! I’ve made Chinese restaurant quality lo mein noodles at home! And now I’m sharing with you so everyone can get their lo mein on!

Easy, healthy Bok Choy and Garlic Over Pasta recipe that you can throw together in minutes! The bok choy tastes great in this olive oil and garlic sauce!

Bok choy was another one of those plants that we really discovered this Spring on a new plant getting to know you level. Over the past few Winters we experimented with a few bok choy plants under a greenhouse and it worked pretty good, so we thought to start making it a permanent garden fixture.

This Spring we planted a few more bok choy plants and they grew massive. Want some size comparison?

So after we had such great luck with that we wanted to try to see if it would grow in the heat in the Summer too. So now there are about 10 bok choy plants growing happily alongside the kale. Right now they’re about 8 inches in diameter so hopefully in about a month we’ll see some more bok choy ready to harvest! Bok choy freezes great so it’s nice to be able to put some aside to enjoy on Snowy January days too!
