During the traditional fasting month of March, with Lent, Ramadan, and Bahai, we reduce or abstain from quantities and types of food eaten. We replace meats, skip snacks and candies, use alcohol substitutes.
There is still such an abundance of choices left that make Sunday meals special, such as this one.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
