Moist Pumpkin Bread with Greens

Unless you buy it cut into pieces, even the smallest pumpkin is large for a small family for one meal.

My solution for this situation is making different things with the same actor, which is pumpkin in this recipe.

Gluten Free Meat Zucchini Fritters

I remember the times when we could find the vegetables only when it was the season they were grown. Tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, etc. ... they were all available only in summer. Zucchini was one of those vegetables heralding the advent of summer. Actually their season started in May and lasted until late September in our southern seaside city, but possibly this period lasted shorter for northern cities where continental climate was dominant. These gluten free meat zucchini fritters always ... continue reading...

Especially combining colors in clothes sound easy but fashion stylists find it a task that can drive them around the bend. However, a chef who knows what two colors match well, or what ingredients can be best combined, colors or ingredients may lead to great recipes. And of course, spinach carrot egg recipe is not an ... continue reading...
