Zoey's dad has been busy in the kitchen lately now that Zoey and I are more focused on baby-preparing tasks. He has been checking out books at the library and searching the internet for new recipes to try. This is one of his first recipes that he found on his own and created without any help from me. He even took the picture and asked me to post it on the blog!
This recipe is from the McDougall Program website and the actual recipe can be found here. It is the first recipe in the list. We used fresh cauliflower instead of frozen and we left out the peas. Actaully I didn't even know that there were peas in the recipe until I just looked at it now. I think it would have been great with peas added, but it was great without them so you can make your own choice about that.
He used about 2 1/2 Tablesppons of curry powder spice that we got in the bulk foods section of the grocery store. He also added a little black pepper which gave it a little more zip. We served it over brown rice and hulled barley which makes everything taste even better.
Overall this dish was delicious and we ate it for leftover lunches for 2 days.
He also made the next dish down: Mexican Beans and Rice and that was really good too but we didn't take any pictures.
As for me and Zoey:
We have been busy putting together the baby's room:
Zoey tested out the changing table when I wasn't looking and she was so cute up there that I had to take her picture. It isn't the most flattering image of Zoey that I have, but it captures the moment pretty well. We are getting ready to have the baby any day now!

What an adorable pic of Zoey. Could she be any cuter, perched on top of the changing table???
And the Curried Indian Potato Stew looks and sounds delicious. You probably won't want to make it when I'm visiting since it sounds like you had it recently, but I plan on making when I return home. It looks simple enough even for me!!
Yum, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!
That photo of Zoey is so lovely - she's put on a bit of weight too hasn't she? Or is that just the way she's sat? Don't tell her I said that anyway - wouldn't want to upset her.
That Curry looks delicious, so glad things are all good with you.

Hi Jeni,
That picture DOES make her look like she has put on a lot of weight. I think she looks a little like Yoda.
It must just be the angle or something because she looks the same as normal in real life and all my other pictures of her.
She is so cute!!!! Good luck, sweety! I am keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. You will do great!!!
How sweet of daddy searching for new recipes! I love the McDougall recipes. I think I have 4 of their cookbooks. I have to try this stew with the weather cools a bit, which fresh homemede bread! Our fur baby made her home in the baby's bassinet. She loved it! Zoey looks like she approves of the changing table. :o)
