From All Recipes.

We made a few adjustments to the recipe. We used 3/4 C of honey rather than a full cup, and added 1/2 cup of flax seed. Also, for most of them, we rolled them in toasted sesame seeds rather than coconut. They're best refrigerated.

This is a recipe from All Recipes. These muffins are very, very good. We added a bit of course sugar on top which gives them just a bit of a crunchyness. Nicole says they taste like the muffins that were her favorite at the coffee shop when she was in school. Yum!

Yet again this is something we totally made up.

Acorn Squash Florentine2 Acorn Squash
2 boxes frozen, chopped spinach
1/2 C. pine nuts
8 oz. cream cheese
1/3 C. red onions diced
Nutmeg and cloves to taste

Cut squash in halve and place cut side down on baking sheet/pan (for ease of clean up line baking vessel with foil). Bake at 350 for 45 - 60 min, or until squash is done. In the mean time, thaw squash and squeeze all of the extra moisture out of it (this is very important, the spinach must be very dry). Mix spinach and remaining ingredients well (I used my hands, I think that is easiest). Divide spinach mixture between squash and place back in to 350 oven (uncovered). Bake until filling is warm and melty.

This was very good, but it needs more/different cheese in our opinion. I think next time, I will try goat cheese or a combination of goat cheese and cream cheese. A great vegitarian meal and really easy. We served it with a side salad.

Yet another experiment. (I'm off work this week, so I'm a little bored. Also, the checking account is low, so I'm using what we've got around the house) This used up the last of the root veggies we bought for the stew.

1 large Yam peeled
10 small potatoes
1/8 cup curry powder
2 tsp Cayenne Pepper
1 tsp liquid smoke
1/4 cup sour cream

Cut yam and potatoes into chunks, boil until tender. Drain water add. Add remaining ingrediants and mash the heck out of those suckers. Sour cream amount can be adjusted to get desired texture.

These came out better than I expected, and not quite tasting how I expected. Definitely a keeper in the experiment department.

I don't know what to call this, I was mostly using up the veggies from the stew.

1/2 large Yam
1 large parsnip
4 small turnips
1/2 large rutabega
8 small potatoes
olive oil
Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning
Lawry's Season Salt
Liquid Smoke
Cayenne Pepper


Cut veggies into 1in cubes, toss with olive oil, and seasonings, Bake at 400 degrees for about 1 hour, or until veggies are tender.

Kind of like home fries with a twist. Quite good.
