Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
That pumpkin we roasted last weekend is the gift that keeps on giving. I put the seeds and some of the guts of the pumpkin in the refrigerator for a few days so I could roast them when I got around to it, which turned out to be today. I have burned more pumpkin seeds…

Black Eyed Pea, Smoked Salmon, and Spinach Soup
I smoked some salmon on the grill for dinner Saturday night, and had some left over. No one eats salmon the next day. I don’t know how many times I’ve thrown away perfectly good salmon over the years. Never again!

I started making a classic white chili, but had some leftover quinoa and sprouted rice in the fridge. Like a true Northern Ohioan who was taught how to cook by someone who grew up during…

Cinnamon Apple Stuffed Pumpkin
My dad came over for dinner tonight, but he refused to let me take photos. I have a couple of photos I took surreptitiously, but I won’t post them unless he gives the go ahead. Sorry family back home in Ohio. Take it up with the man.

I tweaked a couple of things, but it’s essentially the same recipe.

Ginger Curry Vegan (or chicken!) Chickpea Slow Cooker Stew with Quinoa and Sprouted Rice
This curry is so good for you. Fresh ginger and garlic and onions and magic spices… Great for when everyone in the house (but me! so far.) has a head cold. Also good when November comes 2 months early to Seattle. I usually make this without chicken, but I roasted a chicken last night, and…
