Cooking from Scratch
|
Cooking from scratch is a hands-on approach to
eating. It
involves doing the shopping, doing the preparation, and blending it all
together
into an edible dish. Sure, there are ways to cut corners and save time,
but the end
result is the same-complete control and palate satisfaction.
The main focus of the Cooking from Scratch section of Foodie Mama is
to help
foodie cooks make tasty, easy to prepare meals for families of all
sizes. You
will find product reviews, tips of the trade, and, of course, lots of
recipes to
help you cook from scratch. If you're new to Cooking (or just new to Cooking from Scratch), start with my top 10 reasons to cook from scratch. Dig in! Cooking from Scratch editor: Maureen Wood

One of the best ways to squeeze in a few servings of fruit (and maybe a
vegetable) during the hot months of summer is with an ice cold
smoothie. Over the last few months I have been developing smoothie

convenient these recipes can be made in any blending device made to
handle ice cubes.
