"I've saved all these recipes!" March Diabetic Tag

[Andi of Longmeadow Farm]

I don't know about you, but when hosting cooking events, or just being a participant, so many great recipes go before my eyes, and there I sit drooling all over the computer and partially on the poor dog, too. I have already contemplated when I can make the recipe myself, and can just visualize it already served up on the table.

I save it right in one of my cookbooks, right away....and dream of the day I can whip it up.

Well, days run into weeks, weeks into months, and there that sweet recipe sits and waits until such a time, it might grace itself before my eyes once again.

All three of us gave thought to our March event for the Diabetic Forum, and since our cookbooks are bubbling over with so many enticing recipes, just waiting to be made, we thought it would be fun to go back into our cookbooks, dust em' off, and make those recipes we had come to save. So let's clean our cookbooks out and start fresh for the next year!

Along those lines, try to make them healthy, and give a nod to them being "health-ful - friendly", or make one that you don't consider healthy, but you enhance it by making a healthier version.

So come on'! Let's see those saved recipes with cob-webs all over them......

We're cleaning out some of these recipes, and they are getting eaten!

New Potatoes With Dijon Vinaigrette



Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breasts for Two

If you have already played a tag game then you know how this works. If this is your first venture into the fun of recipe tagging let me tell you that it's easy, fun. All you do is find a recipe that you would like to make. Remember we are looking for healthy and healthy is very dependent upon individual needs and diet. You'll have until the end of the month to report back to us here in this thread. Thats all!

[PaulaG]

Andi, you have hit the nail on the head. I'm looking forward to making some of the recipes I have been drooling over for ever. Thanks much!

[Andi of Longmeadow Farm]

Hi Paula! I was just looking into my cookbook, and man, I am gonna tag like a crazzzzzzie fiend!

[PaulaG]

Andi, I could cook 24 hours a day for many many years and never get all my wanna do's done. I'll be here for the first part of the month but will be traveling toward the end. I hope to get lots done.

[Mia in Germany]

Andi, I love your intro!! It just hits my nerve
Paula, where are travelling to? Second half of March must be nice in your part of the world.

I'll be in Dresden for a conference from 8th to 11th but hopefully otherwise have enough time to get some recipes done before I save all the new recipes I watch you making

[PaulaG]

Good morning Mia. I am anxious to get things going in the thread. I have such little time and so much I want to do. We are taking a road trip and traveling across country. This is something we haven't done in years and years. I am getting a little excited.

[Andi of Longmeadow Farm]

Morning all! Yea! Since you all are leaving soon, do you want to start today, since it's Leap Year!

[Andi of Longmeadow Farm]

Paula, wow! You are taking a big step traveling across country - but I bet it will be wonderful ~ are you driving to Atlanta? We used to drive from Maryland to Florida 2x a year taking my In-laws to Florida for the Fall, and bringing them back in Spring. It was a Long, Long, Long, drive, but fun!

Oh Mia, is this conference going to be a teaching/learning conference? I bet you will be hankering to get home after a lot of fun being away....

[Mia in Germany]

It is a learning conference, and I'm SO looking forward to it. But not sure now if I'll be able to go. My SIL wanted to come and keep DH company - he's still afraid to stay alone - but just one hour ago she phoned that she won't come because she has a laparoscopy on Monday because of an unidentifyable kind of tumor on one of her ovaries. Pray that it is NOT cancer - the poor woman is sick with fear.

Holy cow Mia ~ that sounds awful! I will be praying everything turns out ok, and your SIL will still remain healthy and happy.

[Mia in Germany]

Thanks, Andi
I think I'm going to calm down by looking for the recipes I am going to dig out of the depth of my cookbooks

[Elmotoo]

[Andi of Longmeadow Farm]

Good morning all! Ready to dust off those cookbooks?

Hi Bethie! ya coming to clean too?

[Elmotoo]

YES! I actually have a cookbook where I save recipes (that I find while looking for something else) that I plan to make 'someday'.
