Tasty Mexican Tortilla Bean Soup

Tasty Bean Soup The word is out. The body requires legumes to stay active. The word Pulse will soon be the foodie word of the day for Chic Peas, Chia, Quinoa, Fava, Kidney Peas and Lentils. I confess that my eating habits sometimes get way out of control, so I’ve strapped myself back onto the wagon of health and good eating.

What it did is kill all the good micro bacteria living in...

Alaska King Crab Cocktail

Alaska King Crab Cocktail. I love King Crab because it is so crab chunky delicious. When you get a nice leg portion the centre cut makes for a great cold cocktail presentation. When the season here on the BC coast arrives you can purchase king crab at the local grocery stores. I find about 2 center legs yield about 60 percent meat. So pick your crab for meat density. Avoid frost bitten ends and the claws and joints weigh the most, but the edible crab meat yield is low. Not hard to spend 50 bucks on 2 nice legs. Ask to see the catch info to make sure your getting Alaska...
