Tuesday, October 5 is going to be a crock pot challenge! Find a recipe, ANY recipe that will go well in a crock pot... something you can throw together in the morning and cook all day while you're at work... share the recipe here. :) It's that easy!
It's actually one of my FAVORITE issues of the magazine because it's loaded with fall recipes that will be very beneficial for some of the other upcoming Fruit of the Spirit nights. So grab it off your local newsstand today!
Tuesday, September 7, is sauce night. Remember to use How to Pair Pasta with Sauce as a guide and bring a homemade sauce or gravy, as well as a cooperative pasta, rice, or something else that you can cover the sauce in. I never knew that certain sauces only pair well with certain pastas... using that article will help you in all of your cooking endeavors where pasta is the star of the show!
I will provide plates with separators so your sauces don't touch. ;)
My recipe is as follows:
Tzatziki Sauce
8 ounces Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
3 cloves pressed garlic
In a mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, dill and garlic.
Blend thoroughly and serve.
