❓Who else is craving some warm comfort foods rig

❓Who else is craving some warm comfort foods right now? Let’s all step away from the sugary snacks and make soup instead. ⁠
.⁠
I’m partnering with @Think_Rice to share this Roasted Vegetable and Wild Rice Soup on the blog today. It’s my go-to choice, especially this time of the year, because it satisfies and nourishes with lots of healthy carbs like US-grown wild rice. It’s also packed fiber, protein, and lots of immune and mood-boosting nutrients. ⁠
.⁠
.⁠
.⁠
And here’s a fun fact: Did you know wild rice isn’t actually true rice? It’s a semi-aquatic grass!⁠
It’s the tastiest grass I’ve ever eaten 🤣⁠
.⁠
Here’s what you need to make this easy soup – get the full recipe on the blog, just click the link in my bio:⁠
garlic⁠
leek ⁠
celery⁠
baby Bella mushrooms⁠
carrots⁠
cauliflower florets⁠
olive oil ⁠
vegetable or chicken stock⁠
bay leaf, dried thyme, sea salt⁠
U.S-grown wild rice⁠

Still trying to use up my bounty of lemons before

Still trying to use up my bounty of lemons before my tree sets flowers for next season's fruit. ⁠
🍋⁠
So far, I've made way too many batches of lemon bars (coming soon!), lemon herb marinades, preserved lemons (check them out on the blog), lemon drop martinis (yes, please!), and this tangy and refreshing Lemon Herb Kefir Salad Dressing. It's the best way to brighten up a gloomy February day and add a little spring to your salad. Click the link in my bio to check it out.⁠
🍋⁠
Kefir is one of my favorite gut-healthy foods. It's got about 12 different strains of probiotics - way more than yogurt. ⁠
🍋⁠
And for those of you who were curious about my citrus tree that produces limes in the late fall and lemons in the winter, I asked Maricopa County Extension experts what's up with it and even they didn't know! It was suggested that perhaps I have a rare species and I should see if a citrus grower would like to purchase it. 💲💵⁠
🍋⁠
Or, I can keep it and enjoy guacamole and margaritas all fall and switch off to lemon drops and lemon bars in December. ⁠

But most of the time I'm on autopilot and I arrive at my destination not even remembering how I got there. ⁠

I'm pretty sure I'll be first in line for a #selfdrivingcar.⁠

What do you do when life gives you lemons❓❓❓

What do you do when life gives you lemons❓❓❓⁠
🍋⁠
In this case, it's my lemon tree that gave me LOTS of lemons. And the strange thing is, in the past 4 years since I've had that tree, it's given me limes 🤷‍♀️⁠
🍋⁠
Usually, I pick my limes in the late fall and enjoy lots of guacamole and Margaritas, but this year I was so busy I kind of forgot to pick them.⁠
.⁠
When I went out around Christmastime to collect them, they had all turned yellow, which I thought meant they were over-ripe. ⁠
.⁠
.⁠
Except, when I cut into one, it was definitely a Lemon 🍋⁠
What the what is up with that ❓❗⁠
.⁠
➡️Is there such a thing as a lime/lemon tree? My inquiring mind wants to know.⁠
.⁠
.⁠
So, be prepared to expect a few lemon recipes over the next few months. The first one is this DIY on How to Preserve Fresh Lemons.⁠
🍋⁠
Preserved lemons are a savory condiment that you can use in cooking - especially Moroccan and Middle Eastern recipes. Get the recipe on the blog today. Just click the link in my bio.⁠

It's cold outside, so how about soup for dinner? ⁠
⁠
It's a good night for this super simple, flavor-packed faux Pho. My Shortcut Chicken Pho is made with a few shortcut ingredients but you'll never know it because the broth is so delicious.⁠
.⁠
Here's proof that not all processed ingredients are bad for you. I always keep things like organic chicken broth/stock and shredded vegetables on hand. And thank heavens for @Sprouts because many times their shredded rotisserie chicken saves the night.⁠
.⁠
Pho is a Vietnamese noodle soup and the stock is the star. It features spices like star anise, coriander, ginger, and garlic, so I bundled them up in a cheesecloth and let them infuse a carton of broth. Here's what you need to make this recipe:⁠
Fresh ginger ⁠
Garlic cloves ⁠
Coriander seeds⁠
Star anise⁠
Thai chili ⁠
Low salt chicken broth⁠
Fish sauce⁠
Brown sugar⁠
Egg or rice noodles⁠
Shredded rotisserie chicken breast⁠
Shredded carrots⁠
Sliced Bella mushrooms⁠
.⁠
Toppings⁠
green onion, sliced lengthwise⁠
fresh cilantro leaves⁠
fresh mint leaves⁠
fresh Thai or regular basil leaves⁠
thin sliced Thai or other hot chili peppers⁠
.⁠
