  Crock Pot Beet Salad

  Posted on by Valerie in Dinner, Recipes, Side dishes, vegetarian.

  In the midst of summer heat, I love to use my crock pot to cook the season’s ripe vegetables. My kitchen stays cool and my taste buds get to dance.  This week, I had friends bring me fresh beets from their community CSA. I love roasting beets in a little bit of olive oil, salt […]

• Crock Pot Vegetarian Lentil Soup

  Posted on by Valerie in Dinner, Recipes, Side dishes, vegetarian.

  There used to be this great Greek restaurant that I frequented that served lentil soup in a styrofoam cup. It was always hot and fresh and the lentils were soft without being mushy. I would frame my entire meal around saving room and money for the soup.  This recipe mirrors the flavors and warmth of the […]
