It's about time to feel better.

This past year has been one of new discoveries about health. I would like to share a bit of what I have learned and some of the fabulous, healthful recipes.

Recipe - Vegan Fajitas

Don't let the name of this recipe scare you off.  A vegan dish does not imply any kind of declaration.  And if you want, sour cream and/or cheese can be added.

This dish was so good!  I didn't eat it with a tortilla, but rather with corn chips.  My husband ate one tortilla and for his second helping, switched to the chips.  He liked it both ways.  The red wine vinegar really gives it the right kind of zing.
