Super easy and yummy salad that my sister turned me on to.
1 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes
1 large cucumber cubed
1 medium onion chopped
1 small jar of marinated artichokes (drained but not totally drained)
1/2'cup crumbled goat cheese
Pepper to taste


This salad is so good and the only dressing for it is the marinade that is left on the artichokes.

Bourbon (or Rum) Balls
We made Rum Balls this morning for Christmas. I was trying to replicate something akin to the Bourbon Balls my mom made. These are nothing like those.
  • 1 11 ounce box of Vanilla Wafers
  • 1 Cup powdered sugar
  • 1 Cup chopped pecans
  • 2 Tablespoons Cocoa powder
  • 3 Tablespoons white corn syrup
  • 2/3 Cup Rum or Bourbon or Scotch (Choose your favorite poison.)

Mix in a food processor in the order given. Form balls. Roll in powdered sugar.
Store in covered container. Hide from the kids.

Pumpkin Soup

I made some pumpkin soup to add to the mix for coffee hour after church today. It was very well received. Here goes!

Ingredients:

  • 2/3 cups Quinoa
  • 6 cups cooked, pureed Pumpkin
  • 1 Spanish Onion, chopped
  • 5 mini Sweet Peppers (red, yellow, orange), chopped
  • ~ 5 sticks of celery with the leaves, chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon Nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon ground Ginger
  • 1 teaspoon Turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon ground Cloves
  • Olive Oil
  • Water
  • 20 twists Black Pepper

Directions:

Saute’ the Quinoa in your soup pot in Olive Oil to toast it. Add 1-1/3 cups water and the Turmeric. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes, covered. Turn off heat and leave it be for 10 minutes. In a skillet saute’ the Onion, Sweet Peppers and Celery in Olive Oil. Add the Pumpkin and the sauteed veggies to the soup pot. Turn on the burner again. Add about 5 cups of water and the rest of the spices. Cook until all of the veggies are tender. I do not add salt. I put it on the table along with the hot sauce. People can add it to their own. This is gluten free, sodium free, and vegan.
