This sauce recipe is awesome! It tastes like something you would get in a restaurant. The original recipe calls for cooking the sauce for 4 minutes, but I like the flavors when the sauce is simmered for a longer period of time…it’s richer and bolder. But if time is short, you can certainly cook the […]
This chowder is quite tasty. It’s vegetarian, which is nice. Most chowder recipes have bacon or ham hock in it for flavor, so it was nice to find a recipe without those ingredients. This chowder had lots of flavor too.
This recipe comes from The New Vegetarian Grill cookbook.
Ingredients:
1 lb. potatoes, peeled and diced
2 c. water […]

This chili is so delicious. It can be made completely on the stove or once assembled it can be simmered away in the crock pot. I used my crock pot, and this chili is awesome. It is thick and hearty and delicious. I used ground turkey, but you could certainly use ground chicken or beef.
