Fun in the Kitchen...

       I have been a vegetarian for almost four months now, although due to time constraints and just pure laziness I have often settled for boxed and pre-packaged meals. My ultimate goal is to eat completely organic and as close to the earth as possible, and do away completely with preservative laden foods. I have set a goal for myself to prepare two new vegetarian recipes a week and give a review of the recipe to determine if it deserves a place in the All-Mighty recipe book.
     I had loads of fun today first of all I prepared and drank a green shake this morning...made with fresh spinach, yogurt, canned crushed pineapple, fresh blueberries, and some vanilla whey protein...it was quite yummy!


    For lunch I prepared a deliciously appetizing  spinach avocado salad...and a nice glass of red zinfandel...


    Tonight I prepared a scrumptious dish.... Black Bean and Toasted Corn Soft Tacos... and I must say that this delight to the taste buds will most certainly hold a place in the All-Mighty recipe book. In my future preparations I will be sharing recipe specifics with you all. With step by step pics and the finished dish.


    I cannot forget the beautiful dessert that my lovely daughter prepared....Oh how fantastic it turned out! I had such a fun day preparing meals from scratch. I forgot how much I truly enjoy being in the kitchen...I think the cooking fairy has sprinkled some of her creativity dust on me...I am feeling a bit excited and anxious to try more new recipes:-)
