It sounds like an instant, delicious warm-up. On another note, I've been away from the blogosphere for awhile and missed so much! I can't wait to catch up on all your posts. (Just glanced and saw you're a super taster - too cool!!) The next chilly day we have I am totally making this. It sounds like an instant, delicious warm-up.

I had not heard that about mushrooms, but my source is local and part of our CSA so I'll give them a call and see what they say. Weird. I alway clean them with a mushroom brush and I've never been impacted (like glutened) by them, so I'm thinking they must be okay. I'll find out though -- and keep you posted. Thanks so much for adding that piece to the conversation! I appreciate it. Hmmmm? Now you've got me wondering. Interesting, Maggie.

I am an adult who's been converted. I am now on the plant booger side! They HAVE to be cooked. And now I'm going to need to erase the whole plant booger thing from my brain... I was talking to a mushroom farmer at my Farmer's Market. They grow shitake, crimini, and oyster. Organic. They rock! The only thing though, she told me they grow the shitake using a compound they mix up. Included in this compound is barley chips, and sometimes wheat chips. What are your thoughts on this? It's been on my mind since the Fall, and I'd love to get back to using shitakes. Crimini are so boring by comparison :) Yum! I am an adult who’s been converted. I am now on the plant booger side!

Happy to share your amazing pie recipe! Thanks for commenting. I always like hearing from the queen of cooking! =) Diane,

By the way, I raised 2 boys as well and they loved the idea that they were eating plant (or, as I often called them "rhinoceros") boogers. Boys will be boys! We are on the same wavelength with nutrient dense foods. Love all your ideas for adding healthy ingredients into family meals. Thanks, Kim!

Wow, wish I had thought of that! And there's nothing better than homemade chicken broth (or veggie broth for that matter). Thanks for your comment! Elese,

You never know what's in the stock, just that it is rich, earthy, and delicious. It's a great trick! Alta,

You don't need a lot of anything, just a mixture of broad nourishment. That way you get a great combination of healing foods. Wendy,
