- olive oil
- 1/2 sweet onion, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon dried coriander
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 teaspoon chilli powder
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 15 ounces, or about 2 cups, mixed beans
- 1 1/2 – 2 cups water (depending on what consistency you prefer)
- salt
Heat a couple tablespoons of olive oil in a medium pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent. Add the garlic, ginger, turmeric, coriander, cumin, curry and chilli powder, cooking over low heat just until fragrant. Add the tomato paste and cook for a minute or two longer.
Add the beans and water to the pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Turn the heat down to medium-low and allow the soup to thicken for about 20 minutes. Season with salt and serve immediately.
Makes about 3-4 servings.

NOTE: For any of these peppers, de-seed them entirely or at least some, depending on your heat tolerance.
- 3 medium-sized banana peppers, sliced a little thinner than a 1/2-inch thick
- 1/2 jalapeño pepper, sliced thin
- 1/4 sweet onion, sliced
- 1 small cucumber, sliced a little thinner than 1/2-inch thick, then quarter these pieces
- 3/4 cup white vinegar
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt OR canning salt
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the vinegars, salt, sugar and turmeric until everything has dissolved. Add the vegetables to the liquids and mix thoroughly. Transfer the vegetables to a 16-ounce jar first and cover with the liquid, making sure everything is submerged. If necessary, add water to cover the vegetables.
Refrigerate for about three hours before using. These pickles can be kept in the fridge for about two weeks.

Zucchini boats with ground meat

by Sarah Steimer
- 2 medium zucchinis, stems cut off
- 1 pound ground meat – I used ground chuck, but turkey or another beef would work just fine
- 1 can crushed tomatoes
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1/2 cup chopped red or green pepper
- 1 clove garlic
- 3-4 leaves fresh basil
- teaspoon turmeric (optional)
- shredded Parmesan (optional)
- salt and pepper
- olive oil
Place the zucchini, whole, in a glass baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Bake at 400 degrees for about 30-40 minutes, or until you can easily insert a fork into the squash.
In a saute pan, brown the ground meat – being sure to drain the excess juice. Add the onion, pepper, garlic and tomatoes and let simmer until the vegetables are soft. Add the basil and turmeric, if using. Season with salt and pepper.
Once cooked, remove the zucchini from the oven and let cool just enough to work with. Cut in half and scoop out the center of each half. Fill with the ground meat mixture and return to the oven if it cooled off too much. Sprinkle with cheese.
Serves four.
