First I did not know there was a thread for recipes ... duuuu!!!! Maybe we should put it back to life again. Secondly my husband would have loved this - I already send an e-mail to heaven, maybe he can make it for the family there. I'm going to make it forsure!!! I think it is very healthy too. The colors tells me THAT IS where you get your designing talent from!! Big love!!!

I just wonder if Rachel can move the pages from last to first - now you had to click LAST to get to the recipe. Maybe I ask to much - you see, that's what this soup is doing to your imagination .....

Pepper Soup

4 medium size peppers chopped small pieces. Red, yellow, orange and green. I do two red, 1 orange, 1 yellow. Sometimes all red.

1 onion chopped fine

3 good celery branches chopped small pieces

2 medium size potatoes chopped small pieces( the more potato the thicker the soup)

4 cups of low-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth ( I use chicken)

1 tsp dried Thyme or to taste

Black pepper to taste

Put two to three tablespoons of oil in a soup pot (I use canola).

Put all the vegetables and stir for a few minutes. The veggies will stick at first
but keep stirring. Add the 4 cups of broth, the thyme and pepper. Stir, bring to a boil and then lower the heat a bit and cook uncovered. When the veggies are soft put a little at a time in a blender or use an immersion blender. Immersion is much easier as you don't have to transfer the blended soup to another container. Enjoy!
I make this soup once a week.

Okay, well this recipe is not well known anywhere else, but it's a common Hawaiian treat! We have it all the time!

Pineapple Sauce

(exact measurements of ingredients depend on taste, experimenting is half the fun! Honestly, I forgot the measurements my family uses so I just estimated. But the ingredients are right!)

Recipe: Get large bowl/cup. Add one pint pineapple juice. Mix with about a cup of apple, raspberry, or mango juice. Shake/stir well. Add a .5 cup of vinegar, and a .25 cup (or less) of olive or avocado oil. Add salt if you wish, and add spices to desire. I've been told cinnamon is yummy with this!!

You can put this on salad, rice, etc! This is a very easy recipe to use!!

Well, I just printed out your recipe Hazer and I'm anxious to try it. I have a
similar recipe from Chef Michael Smith and I cook my bread in a cast iron pot
with a lid. The smell of fresh bread from the oven is wonderful. *J*

Hazer

I have stumbled upon a bread recipe that is so easy and delicious I must share.

Perhaps some of you have heard of this before but it was new to me. It is

called Peasant Bread. I will give the basic ingredients first which will result in

two round loaves of white bread.

Combine the dry ingredients: 4 cups white flour , 1 tablespoon sugar, 2

teaspoons salt, and 1 package instant dry yeast.

Combine 1 1/2 cups cold water with 1/2 cup boiling water and stir into dry

ingredients to make a very soft dough. No kneading required!

I place the dough in my oven with just the oven light on and let it rise for 2

hours. Before rising I give the top of the dough a light spray with Pam (canola

oil) and lightly cover with plastic wrap.

After the first rise, stir the dough down and divide into two greased oven proof

bowls. Spray, cover lightly and place in warm spot for 1/2 hour while the oven

is preheating to 425 F. Bake for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 375 F and

bake another 15 minutes. Remove loaves and place on rack to cool.

So quick and easy....I taught my grandchildren how make it and they were

thrilled to have bread they had made themselves to treat their Dad with when

he got home from work.

I make variations by adding grated cheese, a mixture of seeds sprinkled on

top, or use a combination of white and whole wheat flour. I like Baldur's idea of

adding oatmeal and will try that next. I also want to try cinnamon raisin or

poppy seed.
