Some more catching up on recipes!

First up is Pea and Avocado Penne. VERY YUMMY. 

Noodles and green beans cooking in our biggest pot (you'll need it!) 

The Avocado Pesto

Both combined together to make a wonderful dish. 

Here is the link to the recipe: http://www.veggienumnum.com/2010/07/pea-avocado-penne/

Next up: Warm Potato, Onion, and Fennel Salad

Here are the potatoes roasting in our oven. 

The salad put together at the end. This stuff is DANGEROUS, because it is sooooo good. I can't wait to make this again. Here is the link to the recipe: http://www.theperfectpantry.com/2011/05/recipe-for-warm-potato-fennel-and-onion-salad.html

And the final recipe for today: Italian Rice and Black Bean Stuffed Peppers. 

This recipe can be vegan. And it would have been on mine except that I put real cheese on top instead of fake cheese. One problem I ran into was there was a lot of extra filling for the supposed 4 peppers it was supposed to fill. I think it would have filled 5 peppers. Just a warning. 

Sadly the only pictures I have of this are a picture of a pepper with a lot of little mini peppers growing inside it (I thought it was cool, heh)...

And one leftover pepper, because I was too hungry to take a picture of all of them when they came out of the oven. Whoops. 

It was really hard to take pictures during the cooking of this recipe because it is so GO GO GO all the time. But I was worth it...very good!

I'll be back tomorrow with a few more recipes. 

Happy Cooking! 

I've been slacking...

Sorry sorry! I am so behind on posting now, I will be posting around 2 recipes a day as to not overwhelm the blog. So here is recipe #1: Strawberry Lemon Bars 

 All of the ingredients lined up together before the recipe starts. 

 The strawberries sitting in sugar to sweeten them up and take out excess moisture before baking. 

 The egg/lemon mixture. 

The finished product. It was MARVELOUS.
