About the only thing in my kitchen that is commercially fabricated is cheese, yogurt, bread, and cereal (Post Cereal's Shredded Wheat and Bran). I was not dismayed when Gourmet magazine went under since most of the recipes seemed only semi-homemade. I constantly had to substitute my own made-from-scratch ingredients. Give me REAL FOOD! Now I have a go-to site for everything vegetable!

There are a million variations of chana masala but this is certainly one of them. <br /><br />I am SO with you on the real food- we are lucky to have an abundance of vegetables, fruits, nuts and grains and all they push is processed stuff?

Have been blogging through many of the recipes, you can make nearly every one of them vegan. Dried beans means zero prep and costs pennies. Recipes are Punjab and super healthy and yummy.
