Broccoli Bisque

This idea for a recipe started with my roommates who created a Vegan version, and ended with pure imagination.
Calls for:
broccoli
cashews
garlic  
these items are steamed together until soft (put it as much as you want of each (or however much your biggest pot will hold), have fun with it-that's what we did!)
placed in a blender (even better if yours is immersion!)
and blended with heavy whipping cream (obviously the NON-Vegan version-for Vegan version, simply use water-of course this makes it a broccoli soup, and not a bisque).
lightly salt and peppered, served with fresh french bread for best results.

 

A Doe Dinner

It was Zach's turn to make a meal, and boy did he make a meal!
I was trying to be Vegetarian, and this scrumptious sandwich certainly complies, with large, lucious chunks of avocado, thick slices of tomato, half smiles of red onion, thinly spread mozzarella, topped with smart 'n healthy spinach, sandwiched between slices of the buttermilk bread, toasted together to form a more perfect panini--not to mention the mango treat on the side!

Complimentary Colors

An impromptu meal, easy and ridiculously cheap ($5 for the groceries, feeding two)
Tea for two (green and herbal lemon)
Wheat toast spread with roasted tomato paste, black and green olive tapenade.
Salad:
Spinach
Cilantro
Onion
Tomato
Kiwi
Salt/Pepper
Olive Oil/Balsamic Vinegar

Three Cheers for Improvising

Butternut Squash soup from TJ's, heated over stove with added herbs
Topped with Cinnamon, and complimented with bananas.
Surprisingly delicious.
Tea--a new obsession, hot and filled with antioxidants? Done.
(Standard artisan bread, brushed with olive oil, sprinkled with salt/pepper and broiled on low in oven)

 

Fresh Take

This recipe was simple:

Any type of your favorite pasta

Fresh cut tomatoes

frozen basil --

(a new fav find at TJ's, you pop little squares of it out into ANYTHING YOU EAT, I think it is better than fresh)

minced garlic

all tossed with a little EVVO

fresh ground salt and pepper to taste

topped with grated sheep cheese

The bread was also a delicious find, a rosemary loaf lightly sprinkled with olive oil and balsamic, topped with cheese.
