Seventh Day Adventist Vegan Recipe

Hello to all who have been involved in the vegetarian cooking classes and all who are interested in healthy eating! Now that summer has really arrived, I thought you might enjoy this recipe for Garden Fresh Italian Style Pasta. It's so very healthy, especially if you use whole-wheat pasta. My favorite is Bionaturae fusilli because it is organic and so well made that you won't feel you are sacrificing any flavor or texture.

Make you own salad dressing. Simply combine:
1/2cup olive oil, 2-4 tablespoons of lemon juice, 2 cloves of garlic, 2 teaspoon of basil, 1 teaspoon of thyme, and a pinch of cayenne pepper if you want to add a little sparkle of warm to it.

Follow directions for cooking the pasta. Drain pasta, add 1/2-1 cup of raw broccoli florets, cauliflower florets, diced bell pepper (a little of the red, orange, yellow and/or green to get the full rainbow of colors), slice mushrooms, and 1/4 cup chopped parsley, small zucchini thinly sliced or diced, thinly sliced red onion to taste, tomato wedges, and black olives if you desire.

Combine and refridgerate for several hours or longer to allow the flavors to meld together.

Bon appetito!

P.S. Stay tuned for upcoming events! We are planning a therapeutic watercolor workshop with a biblical theme. We are also planning a summer vacation Bible school VBS right here in Livingston, TN for those interested in the Seventh Day Adventist faith.

What Adventists Believe

Scripture is a road map. The Bible is God's voice, speaking His love personally to you today.

The Bible speaks the Creator's directions to us, like a detailed road map that clearly shows the exit ramp directly into heaven. It is also much like an owner's manual for a life ready to be lived on the cutting edge of liberty.

Sometimes His voice speaks through stories, such as those of David and Goliath, Ruth and Boaz, Naaman's little servant girl, Christ on the cross, and fisherman Peter learning how to tend sheep. Some of these stories teach us how to handle the troubles we face each day. Others fill us with hope and peace. Each of them is like a personal letter from God to you.

Portions of Scripture are direct instructions and laws from God such as the Ten Commandments, recorded in Exodus 20. These tell us more about God and His expectations for us. When people asked Jesus to summarize these commands, He focused on the way God's love affects the way we live. "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, and soul," He said. "And love your neighbor as you love yourself."

On other pages the Bible gives God's practical advice and encouragement through parables, lists, promises, and warnings. Amazingly, though many different writers throughout thousands of years wrote the Bible, each page describes the same God in ways we can understand and apply in our lives today. This book is always His voice talking personally to anyone who is willing to read and hear.

God loves us even when we choose to reject His love. In those times He allows us to walk away into the life of our own choices. Yet He is still there, always ready to redeem us from the results of our decisions.
