Base for Hors d’oeuvre and Snacks

Ever want something to dip, top, or pop into your mouth that crunches and contains no preservatives, colors, sugar, or synthetic emulsifiers? Try these: 6 ingredients, 20 minutes, and ready!

They fit in paleo, gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan diets. If you’re actively reducing, remember that crackers are snack food, so indulge sparingly.

Vary the flavor by varying the herbs you include. Harvest, wash, and chop your own herbs; use dried; or simply buy and toss in herbes de provence (savory, marjoram, rosemary, thyme, oregano, and sometimes lavender leaves).

By the third time you make these, we bet you’ll also vary flours, herbs, other additives, and perhaps add toppers like pressed-in coarse salt or chili powder. Read more

It’s in the Pot

Good old-fashioned pot roast is nothing to sneeze at. It warms the belly and the heart and satisfies the taste buds. Traditional renditions include root crops like potatoes, carrot, and turnips, but there’s no need to limit yours.

Whether you prefer to thicken the broth to a light gravy in that last half hour before dinner or leave the drippinga as they are, this meal-in-one is a time-saver. Prep time is miniscule: thaw, season the meat, layer meat, liquids, and vegetables into a tightly-covered baking dish, and let it finish making your meal.

Nicole admires the flavor and texture a Römertopf baker provides, but even that is far from critical.
