This recipe is ALL my own. I Love sweet potatoes and I am always trying to find a new way to serve them. They are so delicious that right now, as we speak, I am frothing at the mouth! I decided to make a nice beta carotine mix with this and for better vitamin absorbency, […]

Two Really Great No-Meat Burgers For The 4th of July Grill
The 4th of July is almost here and all that I can think of are burgers! I am a HUGE fan of grilling, even if it’s for vegetables. Yeah, you heard me right. I LOVE TO GRILL VEGETABLES. It is NOT blasphemous, so you should quit thinking that immediately. I was a griller before I […]

After eating the entire […]
