Cooking up a (Snow) Storm

Day Seven. Snow storm still imminent. The news is calling not only for 3-5 inches of snow, but now ice on top of the snow, which will likely take the power out some time on Sunday.



I woke up with a boatload of energy today. After yesterday's shopping excursion and the pending power outage, I figured I'd better get a few things cooked and put away in the freezer that we could defrost in case of power outage. We have a gas stove, so that will still work in the event of an electricity outage.



I made a whole slew of food to have on hand for this week: vegetarian chili (I didn't realize until I dumped the Quorn Grounds in the pan that they contain egg - oops); white bean, kale, and barley soup; and red lentil-cauliflower coconut curry. Plus some cornbread to go with the chili for tonight. Recipes to follow.
