This was different for me trying it and was pleasantly surprised how good. Mad for PAC 2010. I really liked it. I did follow exactly, even the organic requirements as I thought that was important. I did roast some veggies with a ginger taste and grilled some fresh fish as well. The combo was very good. My only thought, is that the recipe needed a fresh herb, maybe the thyme to brighten it up. It was seasoned well, but I wanted a fresh taste is all. But still very good. Love the peppers and the anise to make an interesting flavor. Thx Kim

Cooking should be easy and fun, in my opinion! And it's not only what you eat, but how you eat it . . . a peaceful meal eaten with a sense of gratitude will do wonders for the digestion. I cook for my family and we enjoy mainly organic, vegetarian dishes.
