Here's an off-the-cuff, all fresh veggie spaghetti recipe that turned out great:
1/2 large onion, chopped
3 fresh garlic cloves, chopped
3 celery sticks, chopped
2 Tbs. EVOO
Pan saute the above ingredients in the EVOO, then add the following:
Some fresh dill cut ends
Some fresh oregano leaves
Some fresh chopped kale
1/4 cup vegetable broth (Pacific brand organic worked well)
Some sliced cauliflower florets
Cover the pan and steam the above ingredients for a couple of minutes, then cover the mixture with an organic tomato and basil sauce (Classico brand organic worked great).
Serve over spaghetti noodles, top with freshly-grated Parmesan cheese, and add a nice glass of red wine - yum!
Facebook has become useful for bringing my attention to issues that would otherwise sneak right by me. Like the fact that Post Cereals recently started adding isolated soy protein to Grape-nuts cereal. I find it unfortunate when brands start tweaking their tried and true products, presumably to raise margins or reduce production cost. And I noticed many others were upset, too.
As it turns out ISP is a mixed bag as a food additive. But I really hope Post will review its action and return to the original recipe. Grape-nuts has a long standing as one of only TWO major cereal brands on store shelves that has no added sugar - and that's a reputation worth holding on to!
