Tonight I made a Moroccan Lentil and Chick-Pea Soup. I have never before used ground turmeric before in a dish. So it was exciting trying something a little bit different. The flavors blended so nicely with the turmeric and cumin.
Even on a hot day this soup hit the spot. I have made a few different soups this summer and am very surprised to say I actually like soup on a hot day. Instead of a heavy meal of meat and potatoes small bowl of soup can really hit the spot.

I have a son who doesn’t like food cooked with color. That is how I came up with this recipe. I only added seasonings that would not show up once cooked. So I added no parsley or basil etc, all though those would be good on this dish.
Since I was cooking on the grill tonight I thought I would try putting the red potatoes on as well instead of cooking them in the oven. After one hour they were perfect! The garlic added such a great flavor to them. For my son they tasted like French fries. And for my girl who is 1 they were soft enough for her to eat on her own.

I had forgotten all about this recipe until recently I went camping with my mom and she brought some white salsa. I asked her where did you get this recipe it is delicious, and she said from me about 6 years ago! I had totally forgotten about it…
It is the perfect appetizer dish to bring to a party since it is a little different, easy to make, taste great. Mix in some blue corn or red tortilla chips with the regular for fun.

Finally we made it out for our first trip camping this summer. Once you are sitting by a campfire as the sun is setting you wonder why has it been so long since the last time you went camping. Obviously one needs to pack light when going camping, but if you have a grill cover for the fire this recipe works great.
Grilled onions are great on this sandwich as well, but sometimes you don’t have a cast iron pan to put on the grill. If you happen to I would suggest cutting up some onions in advance and throwing them in a zip lock bag as well.

Growing up I have worked in many restaurants, but my longest employment was at an Italian restaurant. I spent 10 years working in every corner of the kitchen and on the floor. We used an antique family style scale that went up to 25 pounds. It had numbers going around the face of it just like a clock. There was a little screw underneath the tray so you could adjust the number back to zero. Whenever you would place an item on top to be weighed you could watch the arrow bounce back and forth until it landed on a weight. It never failed when you took the item off the scale it would never go back to zero so you would have to adjust the scale again to bring it back to zero.
Oh how things would have been different with a more modern Food Scale. Like the Detecto which has a digital tare (tare – refers to the weight of an empty container.) that would have been a nice feature to have.

Recently my grandma sent me a new cookbook title Rosine’s Cuisine. Rosine’s Restaurant is located in Monterey California. Rosine’s daughter Renee put together a cook book for the dishes offered in the restaurant. I have tried a few of them already and have not had a bad experience yet.
Although one recipe I tried was amazing. I am trying to add more fish to our diet since we seem to eat a lot of red meat. Even my pickiest eater gave it a shot and liked it. Although I had to wash all the seasonings off so he couldn’t see any green herbs. He still ate it! I thought this one was a great dish to serve to guests since you can put the fish in a zip lock bag with the marinade early in the day. When it is time for dinner you just put the fish in a baking dish and bake.
