Purple frittata


A Tasty Frittata - from 101 Cookbooks

I have been so excited to make this ever since I found both purple potatoes and purple cauliflower at Whole Foods. Heidi suggests pink potatoes to make it colorful, but purple?? Even better!

I made only half the recipe and it still made this big old panful. It's got a cilantro chile lime sauce to drizzle over it which is a good addition. Definitely will make this again.

Sauteeing the purple stuff...

Look at all the pretty colors!

So pretty!

Couscous soup and Cornmeal Crunch


This was a pleasant surprise. I'm tellin you, it's good.

I just came across this blog - 101 Cookbooks - and she has tons of healthy vegetarian recipes. I bookmarked a bunch of them. Anyway, this recipe for Ten-Minute Couscous Soup sounded fast and simple, so I went for it. I wasn't expecting much from it, honestly. But it is SO GOOD. It's got tons of flavors swirling around in it - red pepper flakes, green onion, couscous, and we added some chopped mushroom. I added some extra broth and couscous to make 8 servings, and based on my calculations on SparkPeople, the total is 187 calories for a whopping bowl of soup.


Also from 101 Cookbooks, I was intrigued by a recipe called Cornmeal Crunch. It's like a very crunchy, very onion-y cornbread. Also very good. The recipe makes 16 pieces, 76 calories each.


MMM!
