Q: Is there such a thing as a red split pea, and does it look like a red split lentil? I have always used red split lentils to make soup, but recently my soup had a burnt-orange color (although the soup was not burnt).

When I first got a food processor, I tossed all the extra parts in the box aside and just focused on the essentials: the bowl, lid, and standard blade. After a while, I realized I was missing the point.
Here’s the truth: Not all plants are created equal. Some actually are more flavorful, more robust, and more delicious than others. And so instead of tossing the scraps from that amazing piece of garlic, mind-blowing potato, or ideal onion, why not get the most bang for your buck and use its winning genes to create a new plant?

We’re going to guess that you don’t really need a reason to make a delicious pie, but just in case you do, we think celebrating Pi Day — March 14, or 3.14 — is as good a reason as any.
And to tempt you into celebrating this mathematician’s holiday, allow us to offer up 20 of our favorite pie recipes.
School lunches varied for me growing up. It generally ran the gamut of stereotypical American school-age lunches: Lunchables, Chef Boyardee Beefaroni, sandwiches, Hot Pockets, the occasional lunch provided by the school, and leftovers. Even when I was in elementary school, I think my favorite lunch was leftovers of the previous night’s dinner (yes, even more so than Pizza Friday).
