After reading Ed's post, I got busy thinking!!
Or more like REMEMBERING....were any of you all familiar with Peter W. ?? He was a chef in training, and always posting really great sounding/tasting recipes. He answered other NS'ers questions, explained many of the principals of Food Standards.
And I HAVE, on my hard drive the "pre publication PDF of his book that he was writing". I have no idea if the book ever got printed, or where he is now, etc.
If anyone is interested in having the PDF, send me an address and I'll 'mail' it to you, electronically. Its a tad over 300 pages.

This is a random recipe I copied..
Tomato Basil Soup
(shown with a swirl of yogurt and garnish of basil)
Tomato soup is pretty easy to make. You can vary this recipe quite to suit your personal taste. I'll give the basic recipe and then make some suggestions for varying it. The basic recipe makes 8 servings. 1 serving of the basic recipe is 2 vegetable servings plus 1 extra.
Ingredients:
680mL jar no salt added, strained Roma tomatoes (with or without basil)* 950g Roma tomatoes, sliced in half & roasted
115g shallot, minced
119g red bell pepper, roasted, skin removed and pureed
2 (9g) cloves garlic
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup low sodium chicken broth 14g fresh basil
1/4 cup FF plain Greek yogurt
* I recommend a jar because tomatoes are acidic and canned tomatoes pick up the flavor of the can. You have to simmer a long time for that to cook out.
Tip: If you leave out the chicken broth and yogurt, you can use this as a tomato basil sauce for pasta, etc.
Preparation:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Slice the Roma tomatoes in half lengthwise, season with salt and pepper and roast them for about 2 hours until they develop some nice color. You probably want to roast your red bell pepper at the same time, but it cooks more quickly. Pull it out when it has nice color (about 30 minutes).

2. Let the red pepper cool enough to handle, then peel off the skin and discard it.
3. About 1/2 hour before your tomatoes finish roasting, peel and coarsely chop the shallot and garlic. Place the pieces in your food processor or blender and pulse until they are finely minced.
4. Add the shallot, garlic, strained tomatoes, olive oil and chicken broth to a large pot with cover and bring to a gentle simmer.
5. Puree the red bell pepper in the food processor or blender and then add it to the strained tomatoes.
6. When the tomatoes are finished roasting remove from oven and transfer to a clean cutting board. The tomatoes will still have a fair amount of juice. We're going to coarsely chop them, but we don't want to lose the juice. If you have a flexible plastic cutting board, it would be a good choice to use. Coarsely chop the tomatoes (cut each half into about 6 pieces) and add these and any juices to the pot. If there are any nice dark bits on the baking tray, scrape those up and add them to the pot as well.
I like the soup to be rustic with some large identifiable chunks of tomato in it. If you prefer a smoother soup you can peel the tomatoes after roasting them and puree it in a blender or with an immersion blender at the end (before step #8).
7. Let the soup simmer for at least 30 minutes. Taste for seasonings. You should need to add salt. I used a pinch of pepper and about 1 tsp sea salt.
8. Take the fresh basil leaves, roll them up tightly and cut them into a fine chiffonade. (You might want to reserve a little basil for garnish). Turn off the heat. Add the 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt to the soup and the basil stir to mix.
9. Taste the soup for seasoning. If you want it creamier, add some more yogurt. You could also add some more chicken broth if you prefer it thinner. If you like a bit of olive oil on the surface, add 2 tsp olive oil just before serving.

If you want to have this as a lunch, add 1/4 cup of yogurt and 1 tsp olive oil (per serving) before serving to make it rich and creamy.0 -
Sorry the pix of the soup was tasty looking.....sorry it didn't copy.
Tomorrow I'll random out a meat entree, hopefully then you'll know if you want to get the PDF...
I like that he often gives not only the stats, but the NS stats as well.

Hi All
Happy Tuesday
It is hot and Humid today, No Walk for me except that We did walk to the end of the block to look at the road work being done and then back up the next street. Total walk 4 blocks. Sweating up a storm too.
Cheers
RogerGood morning all,
Mmmm, pork chops marsala. I still have some of that marsala wine from the chicken about 2 weeks ago. Maybe if it isn't vinegar yet, I could try that with pork chops in the crop pot. But...it sounds like I better make sure the pot is plugged in to get things going!
All okay with everyone? Walking, cat box scooping, cooking...and whatever else we do.
I saw a TV ad yesterday with NS CEO, Dawn Ziers. It got me thinking about the decision to eliminate the NS boards...which got me thinking of an analogy. I envision the NS boards as folks who each have a booth at a flea market. You walk around the flea market and decide on any given day to go up to that booth and buy something/chat with the owner. Without a flea market, you don't know what exists. And you have to go to a shopping mall to specific stores and hope you bump into something unusual. The former NS boards were the flea market where I could just drop in on someone I might only engage with once a year, but they still were there. The current system (having to track folks down via FB, MFP, etc.) means I go to shopping malls looking specifically for someone/something.
Don't get me wrong: I enjoy you wonderful folks, but I don't like making special shopping trips to a mall, looking for a specific item. I kind of like moseying around to see what there is in a more casual setting. And we no longer have that. It comes down to...after I use my last 60% off NS cards from NS, I think I may drop off the NS rolls. I buy shakes from Wonderslim, and Zone lunch bars at the market. I get the social aspect from here. Why do I need NS?
Enjoy the day folks!
Hi Lee-Ann
I have a bunch of NS 60% cards left 20+ so I'll be here and NS for a while
I like Your analogy.
I have thunder rumbling around outside, so I'll be off soon as it is getting closer!
Cheers

LeeAnn, I like your analogy flee market (OK that pun was a typo...and too good to correct) Flea Market/Shopping Mall. I played, sorta like you are doing, NS meal here and there, (mostly for the convenience factor) and bars here, and shakes there, etc. Until the day I decided to go Vegan for 21 days....and then it was a month, and finally I met our very nice, tall, handsome member behind Trader Joe's and gave him my left over NS items. There have been days I wish for the convenience, but not often. (And I always keep a vegan frozen dinner or two in the freezer for those days).
Looks like its going to be another hot day, but this mornings sunrise is nice!! Cooler this weekend Ed!!!
Hip is improving, finally! I was about to be really concerned. We'll see how its held up by this afternoon.
Everybody have a great day!
Later...
Hi Kat
I love the convenience of NS, The convenience of Fast food and Supermarket Hot Food and frozen food is part of how I ended up here. At least the NS convenience is healthy!
Cheers

I LOVE tomato basil soup.
They had several one pound packages of ground lamb on the WooHoo rack today, so I bought them, despite having several already in the freezer. They are all vacuum packed and should hold up well.
Tonight's dinner utilized one of the ones purchased tonight. Shepherds Pie as I wanted something fairly quick and easy. I know that may not sound quick and easy to some, but by my standards it is.
J had some pizzafied portabella caps.

Off to see Chiro this morning, a bit of shopping, and chat with DS1. Should about do my day!

Howdy y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! Working a 7 hour middle today. It's going to be another hot one. I believe my chicken is thawed up enough to get my crock pot coq au vin going before I leave for work though.

Holy shiitake's!
Talk about a storm!!!! I am pretty certain at least one of the trees took a hit. Big pop and sizzling! The other sounded more like the noise you hear when you flip a 220 v. breaker! So far have power, don't smell smoke. I think in the beginning there was some small pea sized hail...but it was hard to see on the driveway as it was 90 degrees when this started, and 'instant melt'.
Hope Ed is ok in his center...and he's far enough away he may not even be getting any rain!!!0 -
Hi All
I'm finally back online. The Cable Guy just left a little bit ago, New wire to t he house etc. But Dinner time is here so I'll be brief.
I was lucky, the storms went south of me in NJ and north of me into Connecticut. At 4PM there were still 200,000+ without power in South NJ.
Walked 2.75 miles this morning as the Humidity was down. Yea, I should be out walking tomorrow too.
Have a Good E0 -
Glad all is well at your house Roger! News tonite confirmed that we went thru some really nasty storms! 2 house fires and an apartment here in my county, flooding at the mall near my house, etc.
I did not know that very wet cats would shake off water like a dog. Live and learn. Tom E first dried himself on my pant legs, then he shook, and I got a shower!!!
Jack and Jenn are still under tornado warnings, etc.
Will be glad to see Ed in the morning.
Oh, and Marietta and her DH are 'somewhere' I got texts from her, couldn't land here in ATL because of storm, Diverted to Huntsville AL, and couldn't land there, so went on to Birmingham! Sitting on the tarmac, refueled, hoping to get home tonite. ummm, maybe...0 -
Howdy y'all. It got rather stormy at my work, but not too terrible with the rain. However, our main server went offline and we couldn't sell anything but fuel for the last two hours of my shift. Needless to say we had some rather annoyed tobacco and drink customers. I had to lock up the drink cooler and ice machine so that people wouldn't be grabbing stuff, not knowing they couldn't pay for it.
Came home to THIS. Well, I did have to thicken the sauce a little, and make the potatoes, but then I had THIS for dinner, with a glass of Chamisal Vineyards Morrito 2012 Estate Bottled Pinot Noir. Very fruity with a wonderful smooth texture. The bottle was given to me by a good friend.

Hey Ed...I'd go back to work if I could come home to THAT! Glad your shift wasn't too terrible. It was pretty 'violent' here, and for J&J, so I was concerned about our buddy!
Hot but not stormy they are saying now. Hope for today anyhow!

Good Thursday Morning!
Beautiful sun rise. enjoying it while its cool...won't be so 'sun happy' later when its 90+ degrees!
Trash day, need to run sweeper, want to wash shower liner, etc....chores, always chores!
And my buddy Marietta and her DH did get back to ATL..some time after 7:30 last night. I'm sure I'll hear tales after she has a couple days to get back on her schedule! I see long lunch in the future.
Later...0 -
Howdy y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! Same chance for storms as yesterday. At least yesterday's storms did lower the afternoon temperature a bit, for a while.
Off work today. I've been up for a while but distracted by leftover coq au vin for breakfast, feeding Lilo, getting the dishwasher started, and watering the indoor plants. Then checking on a few things online, of course. I have a few extra slices of slab bacon left from making the coq au vin and they may figure in my lunch today, as a "side" dish for the remaining coq au vin, along with maybe just some high fiber, low carb bread.
I might make up a Greek style, lamb based spaghetti sauce for dinner, along with, of course, a vegetarian sauce for J. I had a Greek style chicken spaghetti once in a restaurant and it was very good. If I use lamb I'll alter the herbs a little but still add a little cinnamon and just a dash of powdered cocoa. It should be tasty.
If I had any more cooking wine, I'd consider putting some of that in the sauce too, but I finished off a whole bottle of Holland House red cooking wine making the chicken. I could, I suppose, open another bottle of red and put some in the sauce but it's not getting any of my silky smooth Chamisal Vineyards Pinot Noir. That's just for drinking...I'm sure it would make a great sauce, but since it was (I looked it up) a $60 bottle of wine, nope, it's for drinking. I'm not a wine snob, but after tasting this one I could see myself becoming one if I could afford to. LOL.

Hi All
Look at that, it is already Thursday:)
I got out walking Yesterday and Today. I ended up following the same 2.75 mile route. I may walk tomorrow or not they are saying rain coming in tonight into tomorrow, There may be breaks in the weather that I can use or I'll just have an off day.
What with the storms going north and south of the house ,I watered the garden in the back yard when I got back from walking and put all the hanging flower baskets (4) in the flower bed before I put the sprinkler on it so that area in front and the baskets and the Garden out back all got watered at the same time.
According to the News broadcast I just heard when I was out with the car, Yup I went back out with the car later when the bank & Drugstore were open Anyway they are saying still over 100,000 people with no power in South NJ. Some may be without for several days too.
Have a Great Day

Hi Valerie
I think I knew that about cats. I hope Marietta and her DH make it home tonight. There have been some flights from hell on the news recently. 30+ hour flights, Yuck!
It sounds like Your area had some bad weather too. One of the odd bits on the news, The Nunnery that had its roof lifted off by the storm and set back down a few feet to the left of where it started, Still on the building but one end the interior exposed and overhanging the other end.

Roger, glad you were able to get your walks in! Good Job!!
What an experience for the Sisters!!! Talk about coming home and a mess! Glad there was another convent they could move into. Not the same as home, but better that other alternatives!
Have all of my veggies steamed to last thru the weekend Also listening to a long UTube on nutrition. Very Interesting! Information that I was made aware of 25-30 years ago, and thought it was NUTS!

It's been a good (and less busy) day off today. I made a run to the farmers market and bought some pears and a couple of quince apples, finished off my coq au vin for lunch, had a nice nap with Lilo, and I've got Greek style spaghetti sauce simmering on the stove, made with ground lamb.
J will be having spicy, cheesy, meatless spaghetti tonight.

Hi All
Well I'm back home after a different 2.75 mile walk via Quick Chek for the morning Black Coffee. It was tolerable out walking due to the Sun staying behind the cloud cover. I did take my Frogg Toggs and a
a small umbrella as there is supposed to be rain today and the clouds looked fairly thick overhead.
Just waiting to dry off and cool off before I have breakfast. Today I had the Banana before the walk and will be having the Nutrisystem Frozen Cinnamon Roll, Very tasty too, And a NS Chocolate Protein Shake. 400 calories more or less, The Variable being the Banana since I forgot to weigh it, Oops.
Have Great Friday

I agree, it could have been much worse. I suspect all their belongings were probably OK too. It Looked like Tarp off the Roof area, remove & replace the roof and they could be back in business.

Good Lazy Saturday Morning!
Usual done, cats, etc. Eating breakfast..Sautéed spinach, nutritional yeast, leftover tofu, and a slice of toasted Ezekial Sprouted Grain bread...this tastes much better than it reads!!!
Lunch later with Marietta. Betcha I hear about flying and storms!! and her vacation.
Lots of rain predicted for today and overnight...

Hi All
I hope everybody is ready to enjoy the Weekend.
I had my Banana then I went out walking today, slightly different route once I picked up my Morning Coffee at the Quick Chek, Total 2.8 miles today. It was fairly cool and comfortable. Then I came home had the rest of my breakfast, Banana Bread Oatmeal (plug here Review in the Food Reviews section) and the Strawberry Protein Shake.
When I finished that I decided that rather than have my brother move his car I would walk to the Post Office and back, I clocked another 1.18 miles doing that. I am now officially walked out. No walking tomorrow, It is supposed to be rainy in the morning.
I am trying to decide when to go to Costco again, Sunday, Monday or Tuesday. Pros for Sunday, I can't walk outside anyway. Cons will most likely be crowded with weekend shoppers.
Have a Good Weekend

Howdy y'all. It's sensational Saturday! No work today, and I've been up for hours but distracted by lots of stuff.
Haven't got all the distractions done yet anyway, and Lilo is wanting a nap if she can tear herself away from her birdwatching.

Roger, fear not! my spinach breakfasts are delicious! Fresh spinach, garlic, onion, nutritional yeast (vit.B12, sorta cheesy taste, nice protein boost) and toast! Greens have my protein, and great minerals, and get my day off to a good start without a bunch of calories!
Now, if someone had told me 4-5 years ago that I'd eat spinach for breakfast I'd have probably broken my vocal cords laughing!!!
Today has been a fun day..great lunch, and hours of chatter with Marietta! Cats are fed, and I'm not exactly hungry, so trying to decide what I want to eat. I'd planned a stirfry with seitan, but just not that hungry!
Such Problems!!!

Good Sunday Morning.
What a beautiful morning we are having. Cool, 69 when I got up...we've had a drop in humidity..sun shining thru the woods behind my house. I couldn't ask for more!
This is Roger's kinda walking weather! Hope you have the same Roger.
Cats are fed, very few chores for today. Thinking this will be a lazy Sunday!! I may join the cats in the backyard, though I doubt I'll nap out there! LOL!!!

Howdy y'all. It's scintillating Sunday! Working a five hour middle today. Not sure what I'll do for dinner tonight. We'll see...
I thought I made a post commenting about Val's spinach breakfasts but maybe I forgot to hit "Post Reply" or something, as I don't see it. I love spinach and think spinach for breakfast sounds great. Popeye would approve.
Anyway, I need to get into the shower and all, so later gators!

Hi All
I woke up, looked out the window and the streets were drying off so I decided walk. I did take a small folding umbrella and the Frogg Toggs jacket, just in case. I ended up putting the jacket on and off twice. Maybe ten or fifteen minutes total, Not to bad. I did get my 2.75 mile walk in however despite the drizzle and then the light rain, most of the walk was OK.
I came home, Ate my frozen NS Cinnamon Bun, Cleaned up, Then relaxed for a few minutes before going to CostCo. I was about out of Frozen Vegetables so I bought two 5 pound bags, Gala Apples, Clementines, Real Vanilla Extract for my Brother to use in his Oatmeal and a 18 pack box of Light & Fit Yogurt @10.99. Today was the last day of that $3 off instant coupon sale, Yea

I believe Certain vegetables, like asparagus and spinach, can trigger a gout flare-up so I avoid them.
I hate to sound silly but I would have thought things like some beans and Peanuts would be good Protein sources, More so than Greens?GardenKatGardens wrote: »Good Sunday Morning.

Hi Again
It was possibly Humid but with the Rain Gear off it was comfortable. When I started out at 7AM it was 65 in a nearby town and currently @ 1:39PM it has only risen to 66 in the same town. That is Edison, NJ where Out Local News12 cable only news channel is located. I did not bother to turn on the AC in the Living Room or bedroom today it was so nice in and out.
I think I will walk again tomorrow, probably:) and take Tuesday or Wednesday off as one of those days shows Humid in the forecast.
Have a Good Day

Roger, the protein in 'greens', spinach, chard, kale, etc. is pretty good. Nuts do have protein but a lot of fat calories to go with them, Beans also good protein, not as many calories or fat as nuts, but more than greens...
Think about this for just a minute.....cows, horses, etc grow very big, hundreds of pounds, eating grass!!!!!
I'll hop over to Forks over Knives, or chef AJ and get a few stats for you...0 -
Roger,
I got kinda busy feeding cats, making dinner...so didn't have time to find the stats I was looking for,
but I do know that 8 oz of raw spinach, cooks down to about half cup greens, and has 6 grams protein/ same as a large egg.0
