A Northern Italian variation on pasta. Cabbage with pasta makes this dish more filling and is dressed with a light white wine sauce. Quick and easy to prepare.

I did mine in my slow cooker and used Boston butt instead of a roast. I let it go on low for 10 hours. Fabulous!

Sourdough biscuits made with 1½ cups of active starter for tangy, fluffy biscuits with crisp golden tops. The classic chuckwagon recipe that uses up extra discard.

Turned out very fluffy, hot out of the oven I ate about 5 of them right away. Lightly warm spiced with sweetness from the sweet potato. You won't find these in any store.

A savory pie crust studded with chopped kalamata olives, made with whole wheat pastry flour, olive oil, and no butter. Vegan-friendly, flaky, and built for quiches, tarts, and savory galettes.

Delicious and chewy. They tend to stick together when you stack them in tupperware.

A very clean and fresh traditional middle-eastern salad.

Asian guacamole reimagines the dip with diced avocado, pickled ginger, rice vinegar, wasabi, and toasted sesame seeds. Served with crispy baked potsticker chips for a Pacific Rim appetizer.

Sweet and sour TVP with pineapple, carrots, and green pepper in a tangy cider-vinegar glaze. A high-protein vegan take on the takeout classic, easily made gluten-free with tamari and served over rice.

Peanut butter raisin bars are no-bake snack bars made with crushed shredded wheat, raisins, and a peanut butter caramel binder. Five ingredients, no oven, lunchbox-ready in 30 minutes.

This recipe starts out as peanut-butter fudge, but with the addition of powdered cocoa, can apparently been engineered to be chocolate.

Making your own pizza gives you more options to choose your favorite toppings. Spread with pizza sauce or tomato sauce, top with marinated artichoke hearts, roasted bell pepper and fresh mozzarella. Absolutely delicious.

A light yet delicious Chinese dumpling soup. The dumpings are made with several kinds of veggies, smoked tofu, shiitake mushrooms, water chest nuts, and black fungus, tossed with soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil. Simply wrap it up with store-bought wonton or dumpling wraps.

Dark rum balls made with crushed vanilla wafers, cocoa, nuts, and a generous pour of dark rum, rolled in powdered sugar. No-bake holiday cookie that improves with age in the tin.

These bagels are made with most whole wheat flour, a bit barley flour and all-purpose flour. Chewy on the texture and delicious on the taste.

Very tasty treat! Easy to make and very moist. I added 1/2 cup chopped pecans to the batter. Would be good with some dried cranberries also.
