Pasta and Meat Sauce

Thursday, Semptemer 15, 2011 I made pasta and meat sauce with steamed green beans.

Creamless Corn Chowder

A few weeks ago I saw this recipe in the Sunday paper. It's a soup chocked full of fresh vegetables (new potatoes, red bell pepper, cilantro, olathe corn on the cob, and onion), so I decided to try it. (I'm always trying to get my family to eat more vegetables!)

As you can see, I had the heat up too high on the onions, so I scrapped them and started over, but after that, all seemed to go well enough. I had one taster, other than me, that approved of the final result (thanks, Zach!).

For this years Young Women in Excellence we are learning the art of cooking. To kick off our project we made artichoke dip and homemade corn chips. They were very good!
