This Week In My Kitchen






This week there has been lots of experimentation in this ol' kitchen of mine. I don't think I made anything this week that I have made before. I gave a go at a sourdough starter, which has been something I have tried many times in the past and have always failed. However, I think it just might have worked this time. We also celebrated a birthday this week, so I made a coconut pie from a recipe that has been passed down from my great grandmother. The directions are literally stir until thickened. I also made an eggplant parm, which is a favorite dish of my Mom's, (it was her birthday) but something I have not made before! SOOOOO good. I used  a jar of homemade pasta sauce from this past summer, plus the eggplant was baked and not fried. We have been eating a delicious chuck roast from the cow we processed back in March. (a grass fed and local cow)
Oh yeah, we have also been munching on some radishes I plucked out of the garden the other day.
Finally, the muffins in the last picture are my way of trying to trick Miss O in to eating ,which is something she has not been a fan of lately. They are whole wheat, oatmeal, and raisin muffins and this recipe is from The best of Cooking Light everyday favorites.
Trying out new recipes is so much fun!
