Indian Spiced Lentils with Spinach

My house is going through a kitchen remodel and we’ve been sans a functional kitchen for awhile. My current kitchen consists of a hotplate, Instant pot, and a what I think may now a broken toaster oven. The instant pot has become increasingly helpful since it’s also a slow cooker, can saute things, and of course, is a pressure cooker. Jack Lalanne would have been in his element on this one.

Knowing that the instant pot is not something that all Yellowbirders have, I finally found a cookbook that shares recipes that can either be made in the Instant pot OR a slow cooker. I made this dish last night and it is delicious and super healthy.

Homemade French Fries and Balsamic Ketchup

I remember going to my best friend’s house in upstate NY a decade or two ago and having her introduce me to oven fries. They were better than any fast food fries I had ever eaten! I’ve made them quite a bit over the years and last season, the winter box of Yellowbird was heavy on the potatoes so I pulled this recipe back into the mix and my hubby and I enjoyed them several times over the winter.

Stacked Vegetable Quesadillas

I got a great cookbook called Simply in Season from Half price books years ago. It breaks recipes out by the four seasons and highlights which vegetables are being used on each page, which is helpful when you have a certain vegetable(s) that you’re looking to cook with. Here is a recipe from that cookbook that I've made a few times and love because it’s pretty easy and versatile - substitute whatever veggies are in season. Or add meat, beans, vegan cheese.
