I'm a new fan of braised kale, thanks the recipe that appeared on Orangette several months ago. Braised kale + carbohydrate = wintry heaven! Add cheese and I just might float away with bliss.<BR/><BR/>Laurie, the hot pot recipe looks interesting! I do like to make off-the-cuff vegetable soups; I just don't do it enough using Asian-style flavorings. I'd add some noodles to that bowl for some happy slurping. <BR/><BR/>For the record, I want to announce that last night I made a scrambled tofu and no bowls were involved. Then this morning I made French toast and ate it off a plate. I just might be climbing out of my rut! And I'm looking forward to trying the new recipes you all sent--everything sounds wonderful. Is it time for lunch yet? :-)Rosiecat24https://www.blogger.com/profile/07219527037186545061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-74086926106094846852009-03-05T17:21:00.000-06:002009-03-05T17:21:00.000-06:00I've made this recipe a few times lately. http://w...I've made this recipe a few times lately. <BR/><BR/>http://www.foodland.gov.on.ca/english/vegetables/cabbages/recipes/jpn-simmer-chkn-veg.html<BR/><BR/>It fails the bowl challenge, but is cheap. I omit the chicken, and add smoked tofu when the veg are pretty much cooked. It makes a ton, so adjust the recipe, or plan on eating leftovers for a few days. <BR/><BR/>Another thing I've been wanting to try is kale pesto. Many recipes online. I've also chopped kale and added it to the water when I'm cooking pasta. I wait until the pasta is almost cooked, then toss in the kale. I can add whatever I like from there. Usually chickpeas and cheese. Tomatoes if I have them. Roasted peppers would go well. Olives. Now I'm hungry! Can't wait to hear what you make.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03433459858260551520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-33765774830533351962009-03-05T12:28:00.000-06:002009-03-05T12:28:00.000-06:00they were more like potato skins, stuffed with sau...they were more like potato skins, stuffed with sauteed kale and topped with cheese! found the recipe at feelgood eats :)<BR/><BR/>http://www.feelgoodeats.com/winter-recipes/potato-skins.htmlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13898098819208716948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-72786017366987982792009-03-05T11:31:00.000-06:002009-03-05T11:31:00.000-06:00Hello, everyone!

Would that be okay?<BR/><BR/>Nick, I printed out your platecake recipe and I'm going to make it this weekend for breakfast! I LOVE the name--it's perfect here!<BR/><BR/>ttfn, are kale skins the same as kale chips? I tried kale chips recently and they were so bitter! Then I read that cooking kale at higher temperatures brings out the bitterness, so now I think I should try a lower temperature, such as 250 degrees F. Any thoughts?<BR/><BR/>I think we should exempt nut butters from the bowl category. I actually brought my almost-empty jar of Barney Butter with me for lunch today to give me a little something sweet to eat after my soup and bread. And yes, I'll be eating it straight out of the jar!Rosiecat24https://www.blogger.com/profile/07219527037186545061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-20209869363008450992009-03-04T21:29:00.000-06:002009-03-04T21:29:00.000-06:00hmmm, kale? i recently tried kale skins, those we...hmmm, kale? i recently tried kale skins, those were fun and very tasty :) and with cheese!<BR/><BR/>does the peanut butter jar count as a bowl? if so i've been a rut too :-/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13898098819208716948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-4861963651258278192009-03-04T18:58:00.000-06:002009-03-04T18:58:00.000-06:00Cheese and nuts go real well together but I never ...Cheese and nuts go real well together but I never though to mush them together into one. I suppose it's the first step to peanut butter cheese balls. Sick of eating out of a bowl? I forget, do you eat eggs? If so, why not some platecakes? By the very name of the recipe you HAVE to use a plate.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.peanutbutterboy.com/2009/02/the-platecake" REL="nofollow">The Platecake</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-6309189060089574752009-03-04T18:57:00.000-06:002009-03-04T18:57:00.000-06:00Oof, I've been cooking up a storm...
