Gout Lovers Veggie Coconut Curry

2 Tbsp olive oil (or canola oil depending on your tastes)
3-4 Tbsp yellow curry
1/2 medium onion
1 large clove garlic
1/2 red bell pepper
3-4 large carrots diced
2 russet potatoes diced
1 can coconut milk
1/4 to 1/2 can chicken broth
1/4 cup water (add water to empty can of coconut milk to make sure you get every smidge of the yummy coconut flavor!)
2-3 Tbsp cilantro

Add oil to pan and heat. Add curry seasoning to hot oil and allow to bubble until fragrant and nutty. Add onion and pepper and saute for 2-3 minutes. Add garlic, carrots and potatoes and mix well in spices and saute for a minute or so. Add coconut milk, broth and water. Bring to boil, then reduce to low simmer and allow to cook for approx. 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Right before serving, if desired, sprinkle a few glugs of Worcestershire sauce on curry to intensify and sweeten flavor. Add salt to taste. (the potatoes really seem to pull all the salt out of the sauce, so be generous with the last addition of salt.) Serve with cal rose or jasmine rice and another sprinkling of cilantro if desired. And enjoy the sweet smell of curry filling your home for the next few days!! Also feel free to substitute or add any other veggies to this dish...Cauliflower, broccoli, shelled edamame, just to name a few.

Marinara with butter and onion

did I tell you that I love butter? well, I do. (see here ) so when i came across this recipe on the smitten kitchen , i was in awe. although wisdom tells you that a good marinara sauce comes from hours of simmering vine ripened tomatoes in delicious spices and mouth watering aromatics, this recipe sort of defies that wisdom. it's three ingredients...that's it. while the quality of the tomatoes does add value to this sauce, it's also ok to substitute with the can of tomatoes you've got on hand. if that's san marzano tomatoes, it's going to be delicious, if it's just a can of hunts, it will still be fantastic (i don't recommend a store brand of tomatoes for this recipe, however). for me, it's the go to recipe when i'm swamped and cannot find time to spend in the kitchen. let me tell you something about myself. i'm a people pleaser. so i have a hard time saying no. "can you help coach knowledge bowl?" yes. "would you b...

sunday slow cooker: red beans and rice

in honor of mardi gras this year i made red beans and rice from scratch.  i am grateful to say that 6 years of my life took place in new orleans, la.  well, actually it was 5 years and 1 month + 11 months while we were displaced because of hurricane katrina, but we won't talk about that.  and during those 11 months in utah my heart was still in new orleans.  in case you're not familiar with new orleans, their claim to fame is FOOD.  and no ordinary food will do, no no no.  it must be GREAT FOOD.  and believe me, we had GREAT FOOD while we lived there.  and lots of it.   one of our favorite dishes was red beans and rice.  now that we don't live in new orleans, it's not as convenient to just run to the store and buy a can of already prepared Blue Runner beans.  so, i decided to come up with a recipe all on my own that used the slow cooker (it was sunday dinner and now with 1 o'clock church i'm using my slow cooke...

rotisserie chicken noodle soup

i can't even begin to tell you how much i wish that this were not a post about soup.  i wish i could have a talking with mother nature and convince her that spring is necessary.  not only for the budding tulips and daffodils, but for my mental status.  i dislike winter.  there.  i said it.  this year i even tried my best to not let winter get to me.  i invested in insulated running tights and lots of warm gear to get me through all the snow storms.  and i ran through lots of cold dreary days.  and it helped.  oh boy, did it help!  but dog-gone-it, it's may now.  i tried to have patience through the blustery march weather.  i was optimistic when april's sunshine peeked through the clouds.  but, honestly, that was maybe once.  and now i'm telling you what...my patience has worn thin and i'm anxious to get my cold weather gear put away.  i want to hop on my bike and pedal my way into mental heaven.  but ...
