That's a keeper, for sure!  One of my sons is gluten intolerant and the other and his s/o are vegetarian.  It makes cooking for everyone quite challenging.

I went rogue and skipped letter G, so the next recipe or ingredient still begins with letter G.

I'm not much of a rebel in real life, lol, but if I see a recipe I like and don't post it right away I will never remember.

Italian Sausage Pizza Soup

Ingredients

• 1 package (1 pound) Italian turkey sausage links
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 medium green pepper, cut into strips
• 1 medium sweet red or yellow pepper, cut into strips
• 1 can (15 ounces) cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
• 1 jar (14 ounces) pizza sauce
• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) beef broth
• 1 package (5 ounces) Caesar salad croutons
• Shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

• Remove casings from sausage. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook and crumble sausage until no longer pink. Add onion and peppers; cook until crisp-tender. Drain and transfer to a 6-qt. slow cooker.
• Add next five ingredients; pour in broth. Cook, covered, on low until vegetables are tender, 6-8 hours. Serve with croutons and cheese.

Test Kitchen tips

•   This one tastes like sausage pizza! Stir in your fave pizza toppers.
•   If your pizza preference runs toward pepperoni instead of sausage, you're in luck. Go ahead and use some pepperoni, but microwave it for about 20 seconds before adding it to the soup; you'll remove a lot of the grease.

Japanese-Style Sesame Green Beans

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon canola oil

1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil

1 pound fresh green beans, washed

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Directions

Warm a large skillet or wok over medium heat.

When the skillet is hot, pour in canola and sesame oils, then place whole green beans into the skillet. Stir the beans to coat with oil.

Cook until the beans are bright green and slightly browned in spots, about 10 minutes.

Remove from heat, and stir in soy sauce; cover, and let sit about 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

If I don't have fresh green beans...I use steamers, dry them then use as fresh!  I like beans cooked!
