Well, I made it through my three month challenge of going back to vegetarianism, and I loved it. In fact, I’m going to stick with it. I’m feeling so much better, and I’m really enjoying cooking again.

One of my favorite dishes is Veggie Chili. I make a big batch, and then I have plenty for leftovers. It freezes well too.

Veggie Chili also makes super tasty Veggie Chili Mac.

I’ve been experimenting with adding more fruit here and there. Pancake night was a easy place to start. Sometimes I add peanut butter and bananas. This batch I sauteed Gala Apples in orange Juice with cinnamon. I reduced the sauce, and poured it over fluffy pancakes. It was delicious.

My mom has shared her roasted Broccoli recipe with me, and I decided to give it a try. I used fresh veggies that I had on hand, and I added in some frozen veggies too. I poured the Roasted Veggies over pasty, and hello new favorite dinner.

I made an extra large batch, so I would have leftovers for lunch and dinner. Roasted veggies go along beautifully with a big baked potato.

A simple salad with toast at dinner is always fantastic and fresh. Perfect for Spring.

I’ll be posting some more pictures soon. Yay veggies!
