Welcome to Litsy!

My #mtcookbook goal is one new recipe a month to get back into the habit of cooking from scratch (ish) and make it fun again. This cookbook was on my Litsy TBR so I borrowed it from the library. I was excited to find this soup recipe because I‘ve actually been searching for red lentil options besides Dahl and not finding them. It came out pretty well, but I‘m not sure what tweaks I‘d want to make before adding it to my regular repertoire.👇🏼

Happy Friday! Todays theme for the Friday share is cookbooks. I‘m looking forward to seeing the posts! #midwintersolace #naturalitsy #fridaynightshare

Check out Lindsay‘s review of “Oh She Glows” on this weeks Manuscript Monday. https://www.bookinterrupted.com/post/manuscript-monday-the-oh-she-glows-cookbook

Today‘s yummy #bookfitnesschallenge soup goal met. #bfc Now to eat, and read!!! There will be a house full of theatre teens tonight for the Tonys so I‘m not sure how much I will be able to focus.

#onewayoranother I will learn how to enjoy cooking. #octoberxfiles

@Elle_Skeldon thanks for sending oh she glows- it is actually one of my favorites also! I will do the same and share it if I have another vegan partner! I am a cookbook junkie, who never has time to cook! And I LOVE vegan cookbooks. What are some of your favorite recipes (in general?) We love pomegranate tofu. Also Cauliflower with lemon and capers. From this book it‘s 10-spice vegetable soup with cashew cream.

Hello all the lovely Littens, I‘m here to try to pick your brains for some suggestions.
I‘ve recently made the decision to try to cut about 80-90% of red meat from my diet, which means a lot more vegetarian meals. 👍
What are your favorite vegetarian/vegan cookbooks? I have the one tagged, but am trying to build up my collection. The easier the recipe, the better, but I don‘t mind spending a lot of time preparing a delicious meal. Thanks all! ❤️

I confess. I hate to cook. 😩 It frustrates me. I am envious of those of you who enjoy it. If I ever won the lottery a personal chef would be first on my list! However, I do like to bake so I say #bonappetit to cookies and dessert concoctions, breakfast breads & muffins. #augustgrrrl @Cinfhen

This cookbook is a great resource for adding veggies to your diet and trying a vegan lifestyle. My only complaint is that it isn't very gluten-free or soy-free friendly. I personally prefer her second cookbook.

I still can't say enough about this cookbook. This morning I attempted the "Apple Pie Oatmeal" - it was delicious! Hubby enjoyed it too! A healthy way to start a wintry Sunday.

I can't find the actual cookbook I'm reading, so I'll just attach this blurb to a book that is undoubtedly better in every way...

#booknbreakfast. I've had this cookbook for a few years - trust me, the food is not only healthy, but tasty and pretty easy to make. Today's recipe is Maple-Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal with Apples and Pears. Highly recommended if you want to try something new and healthy in 2017.

My food bibles! love pretty much every recipe I've tried in these books. #photoadaynov16 #cookbooklove @RealLifeReading

Ok, why didn't anyone tell me that the Kindle app for iPhones has improved immensely in the past, what, 5 years since the last time I downloaded it?! I got a good deal on the Kindle version of this cookbook (which I've been wanting for ages) & gave the phone app a try, as a friend told me it was really quite good now. It is so easy to use with my cookbooks! And reading fiction is so much better/easier than previously! Total game changer! 😍🙌

All this reading is making me hungry! Here are some of my favorite ways to take care of that. Eat to feed your brain!
