    I don't cook much these days but I'm trying to remedy that. A few dinners I made recently,

    Clockwise right to left and top to bottom: Rajma-urad mixed dal, romano beans in kasundi, spinach saag; Roasted cheddar cauliflower and beans, poblano peppers stuffed with Mexican rice and a chipotle sauce; Kadai paneer, spinach raita; Green mung dal, aloo baingan, cucumber and carrot raita.

    Baked a sun dried tomato and basil bread. Used fresh basil from the garden and oil-packed sun dried tomatoes. Simple delicious bread free of the flour conditioners and preservatives in store bought bread. Made a hummus avocado toast with salt, pepper and a little olive oil for breakfast today.

    Lazy Sunday dinner - Overdone pasta with giovanesse pesto, roasted beets, carrots, asparagus and butternut squash and some curried butternut squash soup all topped with yummy goat cheese.
