Carrie's Pad Thai Salad
This Thai salad with lettuce, rice noodles, peanuts, egg, and cilantro with a lime and tamarind dressing is my favorite new creation. After I started making this salad at home, I could never go back!
Simple and Amazing Peanut Butter-Chocolate Fudge
This is such an easy recipe to throw together with a few ingredients. It always gets rave reviews. The recipe uses peanut butter, but you can substitute any nut butter or sunflower seed butter. A favorite of mine is to use hazelnut butter. Slice into triangles and top with some whipped cream (I use chilled coconut milk) and orange zest.
Homemade Vegetable Beef Soup
This is a delicious vegetable beef soup recipe that my mom used to make when I was young. When I started cooking for my family, I made this my own by adding and taking items away. I hope your family enjoys this as much as mine does.
