Recipes 229, 230 & 231! I am getting there slowly but surely. However, I just looked up my beginning date and realized I only have 17 days to finish another 100 plus recipes. I don't know how Julie ever completed Julia's cookbook in one year.
The good news is we have completely changed our life style to one of healthy dining without ever feeling the least bit deprived. I will see how many recipes I can prepare in the next two weeks but where am I going to find Squash Blossoms for Spaghetti Al'Aquilana at this time of year?
Anyway, these three recipes are all great and all rated V++. The Bulgar Pilaf, pg 77 is something you just can't get enough of. Everyone kept going back for seconds and thirds because of the great flavors of the cashews and dates. The Curried Greens, pg 65, make a great main dish. Its a little on the spicey side even though I only used 2T of curry powder. The black bean dip,pg 2, would be great for Super Bowl Sunday! I served it tonight over baked potatoes along with Vegan Gourmet Sour Cream Alternative made by Follow Your Heart (I think I bought it at Whole Foods, great stuff). It made a great dinner along with a big salad.
Anyone want to help by cooking a few recipes? If I got 20 voluteers to do 5 recipes we'd have it done. Think about it and let me know...........

There you go Ruth. Already one taker. I don't know how Julie did it either but I can say how VERY impressed I am that you hung in there all this time especially with the very hectic schedule you have daily. I am so excited to see how it worked with helping you and Sam to eat healthier. Great job! See you Friday. Yipee!
