Food good for body and soul
Nuke ’em if you don’t have time to roast. I like to dry-roast butternut squash before mashing to intensify the flavor, but yams are so intense as it is that microwaving works fine. Start with 5 minutes on high for one small yam. Add 2-3 …
I had a 7-rib boneless pork roast – 2.35 lb – in my freezer. I got it for a great sale price and usually slice this cut into “country style ribs” and do the barbecue thing. But, I wanted to do something different. It is …
Even my commited carnivore of a husband really like this. I found it online:https://www.care2.com/channels/solutions/food/1342You’ll have to copy and paste the URL – too lazy to create html code at the moment! It calls for 1 1/2 lbs tofu, but I just use a 14 oz …
