This recipe is our family favorite! It is a recipe that I got out of our "Jerusalem" cookbook, and of course I tweaked it. It’s now only 4 ingredients instead of 9 and still out of this world! It's called Mediterranean Meatballs.
Guess whose entire family has become vegan and gluten-free. You guessed it: mine! Of course this introduces a couple of challenges. One is that it seems that just about every vegan recipe has over 10 ingredients, and as you know, I only do 4! Secondly, I don’t really like vegetables. (Did I actually admit that?) So I decided to take up the challenge and came up with this savory Kale, Tomato and Rice soup. It’s 5 ingredients, but that’s pretty amazing for a delicious vegan recipe.
We recently made this amazing and flavorful pesto at the home of Brad and Margy Coleman’s in Chicago. Their kitchen was filled with the smell of fresh basil and garlic and it was perfecto! Margy got this recipe from her sister, Liz, who lived in Rome for 20 years. She was a marvelous cook and actually had a job introducing visitors to the local farmer’s markets. Thanks sweet Liz.
My daughter, Abbey, is always looking for gluten free options. (What is it with these Millennials and gluten-free stuff?) Anyway Abbey found this recipe for Banana-Almond Butter pancakes (Of course we tweaked it), and since then it has been our thing. To make matters even better these delicious pancakes don't have grains at all!
