I BELIEVE IN BROCCOLI AND BROWNIES

I grew up with a mom who was a Home Economist. She taught high school for a while and then spent 39 years as an Extension Agent for the land grant school -- Utah State University. As a Home Economist she was an early adopter of many home appliances. While not unusual now – my family had one of the first home microwaves in the neighborhood. Home microwaves became available to home consumers in the mid 1960’s and by the early 1970’s my family had one. It sat on the kitchen counter next to the fridge. It was heavy, had a turn knob, and lasted forever. With this new gadget there was a lot to learn and my mom worked through most every recipe that came in the microwave cookbook. One recipe became a favorite and we are still making it – Tangy Mustard Cauliflower. To start remove the stems from a medium cauliflower and wash. Place the cauliflower in a microwave safe dish (I like to use a quiche pan) and add 2 T water, cover with plastic wrap and cook in microwave for 7-8 minutes until tender.
We’ve all been there – it’s dinner time, we want something warm and hearty, but just can’t muster the energy to make something. So, we swing by the local pizza shop to grab dinner. A pizza kit can be almost as fast, but the best part is you can don’t have to leave the house. Just pull the pizza kit out of your freezer and you’ll have a delicious, warm, dinner.
