Because I have the produce to use up: Dr Fuhrman's Famous Anticancer Soup.
Because it sounds awesome: Hidden Cashew Ranch Dressing by SusanV on the Fat Free Vegan blog. I want to use this to top a Southwest Style salad I want to make. Greens topped with roasted corn, tomatoes, and green onion. I will likely throw some black beans in there too.
I am stumped so far for the kid. I want to stay away from a dessert, but may consider a smoothie. Another front runner is a recipe from Chef AJs (this link actually takes you to Julieanna Hever's site, Chef AJ's site was not cooperating--this is another tremendously useful site!) Unprocessed--Easy Cheezy Peas. It will be good for me too, because I am not a fan of peas. Too many memories of mushy, canned peas or shriveled ones served in the school cafe. My caution on this recipe is that it calls for it to be served well chilled. Yikes. I don't know about that.
Edited to add: I made the soup and the salads tonight. My kitchen is wrecked and my feet hurt. Don't know whether to call that success or not!
