Hello Everyone!
I just wanted to say hi to the new members. I'm looking forward to all the delicious recipes we accumulate here!!!


RE: Hello Everyone!
The recipes posted here sound deeelicious! Great idea for a group!


RE: Hello Everyone!
Feel free to jump in and introduce yourselves. It looks like we're off to a pretty good start as far as recipes, but everyone is very quiet!!

I'm Elle. In the past few years, my cooking has improved greatly. I still do use convenience items occasionally, but I try very hard to cook from scratch. Some days, time doesn't allow for that, but I do stay completely away from those box mixes like tuna and hamburger helper, stuff like that--"dinner in a box." I'd much rather make those things from scratch then load my family up with salt and preservatives.

There's nothing like cooking a delicious, wholesome dinner for family and friends.

Hi Elle! I totally know what you mean about time not allowing for 100% from scratch cooking. Pasta-Roni and canned tomatoes and beans certainly are no strangers in our house. However, as long as the fresh foods outnumber the convenience items, I'm pretty pleased with myself.


Hello
My husband and I recently started a new eating program that restricts refined grains, sugar, and salt. I've found that I can't buy anything in a box or can because they contain salt. I've gone back to the basics and cook from scratch. It has been a challenge, so I'm excited to find new ideas for meals.

Glad I found this group. There are not a lot of convenience foods available here in Brazil, so I find myself having to skip recipes with canned soups, tomatoes, or beans, Cool Whip, marshmallows, cake mixes, salad dressings, etc. Actually, I prefer to cook with fresh ingredients and there are plenty available here both in the supermarkets and at the "farmer's markets".


RE: Hello Everyone!
wonderful group idea - as a lover of 'from scratch' recipes and dishes as my 'about me' page will show, I totally dig a recipe when it calls for the ingredients to be from scratch.
