    Its soup season so I have been making Lentil soup.  Not picture worthy, lol.  Tastes good though!

    yellow onion
    celery
    carrots
    garlic
    fresh turmeric
    pepper
    cumin
    paprika
    lentils
    tomato paste
    better than bouillon vegetable
    Parsley and red wine vinegar at the end.
    emersion blend it all together.

    Yummy.


    I have been on a serious Turmeric kick since my Dr. told me it is really good for my health. I use it whenever I can, including scrambled eggs (from last week).

     


    I put it on my avocado that I usually have for lunch every day.  It's good for you but tastes like chalk in powder form, lol.

    I have put it on eggs too.

    Not sure where else to put it on?
    Obviously chicken, also rice. Maybe a pork loin, but I have not tried that - maybe some skewers. Maybe a white fish. I make a chickpea and black bean salad with it. Asian noodles. Roasted cauliflower, carrots or broccoli. Potatoes. I do not mind the powdered stuff, I really enjoy the flavor. I keep it on the top of the stove with the salt and pepper.
    I'll try being more bold with it.

    In cauliflower or broccoli sounds good.  I can do that.  We don't do much rice anymore so that is out.
    Rice is the only carb rich food that has survived in my diet. I figure the Japanese eat it three times a day so it cannot be that bad LOL. Cooked rice stir fried with a little oil, garlic, mushrooms and turmeric is a go to dish.

    I broiled 4 chicken thighs tonight.

    Does it get any more pathetic than that?

    Amazing creative stuff^^^^

    Soup season as tempo said.

    Have turnips and carrots.
    Crock potted them with an apple, chix stock and a little apple cider. Blended it up. Butter and some half and half.

    Pretty good. Could use ginger maybe something else.

    Hit it with some cinnamon

    Feels healthyish.

    Have loads of turnips if anyone has any ideas.

    Just kidding

    Maybe hang them on the Christmas tree?

    Hahaha

    Obviously I am not fond of turnips.

    I made my World Famous Broccoli and Cheddar soup Sunday. Today I am making a double recipe of chili. Friday I am cooking her and I Thanksgiving dinner. 16lb bird, mashed potatoes, gravy, and green beans(of course).
    No other dishes since its just the 2 of us. Maybe an apple pie. Maybe.

    Really?

    My buddy would boil chicken and add it.  Tasted great and we make burritos w it.

    You try doing a taco seasoning then?  I've done that too.

    Pickled turnips are delicious. Not a whole plate, but a few on the side are great. Very high in fiber and good for digestion. Eat more pickled veg. It is really good for you and they are tasty.

    Have some pickled already! You might like them speedy. 
    Perhaps on a box,
    With a fox  
    In a tree, 
    On your knee.
    Try them 
    Oh try them
    And you will see....
