Chunky Three Sisters Soup - Organic, Non-GMO, GlutenFree, Vegan, No Added Oils

Today is rainy and foggy.  We must eat a delicious, nurturing, nourishing, healthy hot soup to be revived!  I have innovated to create the following: Chunky Three Sisters Soup... the Three Sisters are, of course, the hearty indigenous fruits of our North America: Corn, Squash and Beans.  I have also added in Tomato Sauce, Onions, and fragrant Brown Basmati Rice.  This recipe will serve 6 people, or 2 people, if it is spread over a couple of meals for my husband and I.

Ingredients:

  • 1 C. Brown Basmati Rice
  • Water to cook Rice in (according to your rice-cooking directions on your package)
  • 1 medium size Squash, your choice, split in half, and roasted in the oven
  • 2 medium Yellow Onions, roughly chopped and toasted in oven with squash
  • 14 oz/398 ml can of Organic Black Beans (or beans soaked and pre-cooked by you)
  • 1 C. Organic Tomato-Basil Pasta Sauce (or 1 C. of your preferred Tomato Sauce)
  • 1 C. Frozen or Fresh Organic Corn kernels
  • 4-8 C. Water or Vegetable Stock
  • 1/2 tsp. Chipotle Chili Powder, or to taste
  • Handful of Fresh Greens of your choice (I used Chard)
    Cooking the Squash and Onion



Method:

  1. Preheat oven to 350F and split squash in half and chop onions.  Line cooking pan to accommodate squash and onions, line with parchment paper (or spray with oil). Lay squash "face" down and fit onions around.  Cover with aluminum foil and bake in oven for about 45 minutes.  
  2. Meanwhile, wash, drain, and cook rice as per package instructions.
  3. When Squash and Onions are baked, cool, scoop out and dice the squash. 
  4. Add all items except Greens to a large soup pot and add in other ingredients.  Cook on Medium until boiling, and then reduce to Low heat.  Simmer for about 40 minutes or until it looks and tastes the way you like it. 
  5. Chop Greens and add to the top of the pot.  Steam them until they are tender (5+ minutes).
  6. Adjust seasonings to suit you, your family and guests.
  7. Serve with a sprinkling of Daiya vegetarian cheese shreds.

Spunky Monkey DIY Vegan Chocolate-Chia Ice Cream

Vegan, plant-based, and 100% delicious! This creamy homemade ice cream will win over everyone— no politics, just pure joy. Vegan and Delicious: Everyone Will Love This! Sometimes the word "vegan" evokes strong feelings like anxiety (as in "Please don't take away my meat") and/or hostility (as in "What a bunch of commie flakes all vegans are"). There are probably good reasons for both of these passionate emotions because we frequently come across strident, fear-mongering diatribes online blasting us from the ivory towers of the most raging animal-freedom activist or the highly evangelistic plant-based health advocate. "Plant-based" is an alternate description for a lifestyle choice to eat from the array of fruit, greens, vegetables, nuts, and seeds. Using the term "plant-based" instead of "vegan" may be less intimidating. It even sounds like, although the diet has a plant-based foundation, it possibly includes meat and eggs...

G7 2025: Why It Matters

  57th G7 Summit- Wikipedia commons. What is the G7? 🤝 The Group of Seven (G7) is a forum of seven wealthy, democratic nations: Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan, along with the European Union . It started in 1975 as the G6 to coordinate responses to global economic shocks like inflation and oil shortages. Canada joined in 1976 to form the G7(1). Russia was briefly part of the group (making it the G8), but was expelled in 2014 after invading Crimea (2). How Does It Work? The G7 is informal — there’s no permanent office, headquarters, or constitution . One country hosts the summit each year and sets the agenda. Leadership rotates annually among the member countries in a fixed order (3). The summit itself is usually a 3-day event where world leaders meet in private for discussions, photo ops, and joint statements (although this year’s format is changing — more on that later). What’s the Point? The G7’s original mission was to tackl...
