    Actually I really need stay at home recipes since we are confronting with a major blizzard so…your recipe is very much appreciated, lovely Catherine :). I crave for something sweet though, something that would not eventually appear on my butt :). I challenge you.

    I like this one. Certainly much better than the greasy takeaways you get these days. I make indian at home sometimes as I don’t like the way they do it in restaurants over here, almost sickly! I’d love to do a chinese too soon, so here it is the perfect recipe. Thanks for sharing.

    Terrific “carry-out” made with fresh ingredients. That sounds like good flavorful veggies.

    This looks incredible. I have never heard of Vegeta though, will have to see what we have in this region that would be comparable.

    Catherine– I love your food soo much. Since I am a Chubby Conservative, and live alone, I have elected to try Nutrisystems for Men. Can you give me hints on how to spice up these meals? Blessings…
