I think we were visited by the same muse. Hi Andy, welcome. It took me a few years of experimenting in the kitchen to be more comfortable as an intuitive cook and learning about substitutes that work in recipes, both on taste and texture (like does this make a recipe wetter or drier, or do I increase cooking time as a result). Good luck. Hi Angela, liked your post. I think we were visited by the same muse.

I find I stir it in to more things than yogurt. You're right about the protein! Buffie, I forgot peeled diced sweet potatoes too. Especially for soups and stews, I tend to be pretty creative.

I'll have to try that out. I'm known for never following a recipe exactly. To me recipes are more of a guide then a must do this.
