Skirt Sizzles's blog

God that sounds like a salespitch. I have been meaning to keep up with this blog because writing & recipes are my passion, but I have been too busy, well...eating. Eating and traveling and trying new things. The holidays are over, thankfully and 2009 is here!

My mission is to begin the new year with the right attitude and arm myself with the right tools. Check out www.wholeliving.com for lots of good ideas. Body & Soul magazine is my favorite magazine, other than Skirt! of course! For books, check out “Sugar Shock” by Connie Bennett or anything by Dr. Mark Hyman. Both are lifechanging reads and what is starting a new year all about? Changing your life for the better.

I just tried Kale recently and would like to revisit a turnip. I remember not liking them much years ago, but taste buds change over time. To bump up my whole grains I have been cooking (YES, I HAVE BEEN COOKING) bulgar wheat, quinoa, brown rice and my favorite whole wheat pasta, which some brands are 100% whole grain while others are not.

Since we celebrated our 1 year anniversary of being vegetarians this past December, I thought I would share a great recipe that you might enjoy!

It’s great for a cold snowy Sunday when you can curl up on the couch and watch Football or Lifetime, even.
