Peruvian Lamb Soup
I had 3 lamb chops the other left. When I did not know what to do with them. I googled: lamb soup, and all these recipes came up from Latin America. They seemed so easy! So I gave it a try and I did not regret it....so good and no stock!!!!!!!!!! this is the video that I kinda followed.

Pumpkin Granola Soft Bars
These bars were pretty good and chewy and great to grab for breakfast. Found them in this great website but mine is a variation because these babies definitely need chocolate, yessssss no doubt about it. You can also add raisins or cranberries like 1/2 cup and it is good too, not too sweet.
-1 cup of oats.
-1/2 cup of flour.

Pumpkin Bread
I get a little bit sick every autumn to hear Americans talk about pumpkin this, pumpkin that, and all the pumpkin shots in Facebook. But yesterday I bought a real pumpkin and then after roasting it and mixing it with sugar I began to understand their fascination....it is so good!
So I roasted it and made around 4 cups of pumpkin puree with the handblender and I made this pumpkin bread that Deb Perelman had that looked straight out of a Dickens storybook. And it is GOOD! Wow so good, and not hard. Here it is. The sugar may seem a bit insane but remember that pumpkin puree is not sweet AT ALL.
-1 and 3/4 cups of pumpkin puree.
-1/2 cup of vegetable oil (or 115 grams of melted butter)

White Bean Soup with Bacon
"If I had a restaurant, I would include this soup in the menu".
And that was the declaration I pronounced after the first taste of this amazing soup. And it is great because I have been meaning to include more legums into our diet...Do you know that you are supposed to eat 3 times a week legums: lentils, beans or chickpeas??? I definitely do not do that, but I think I should at least try do it once or twice per week. Well, this recipe will do that for you, also it is not hard (perhaps the khale part, although you can also skip). This recipe is an adaption of Smitten Kitchen's version, which includes even more yummy touches here and there, but to me this soup was already real fantastic with all the fancy touches.
The game changer of this recipe was: bacon.

Thai Bean Sprout Salad
Bean sprouts just go bad so fast, don't you think???
I had a whole bag and I looked for a salad recipe. This one came up and was pretty good! Will be making this again because it was so fresh. This is more or less the recipe I followed but with a few twists of another recipe.

My Mom's Marmalade Recipe
We had some old figs and it turned out amazingly, the way the sugar melts is incredible, it becomes this amazing paste. So here is the magic recipe and the proportions, which is basically that you add 1/2 of sugar of the amount of fruit, so for 1 kg of fruit you add 500 grams of sugar. The sugar and the lemon are the preservers.
-400 grams of figs.
