Simply Samantha: Homemade Spaghetti Sauce
Hey guys! Welcome to Simply Samantha, where the cooking is simple, and the results are oh so satisfying! I don’t know about y’all, but I get tired of the same tasting spaghetti sauce every time I decide to make it! Spaghetti is by far my favorite meal! And let’s be honest, it's something that is very cheap to make when you are in a pinch. That’s why I had it a lot growing up, but hey that didn’t bother me at all! You can add some garlic bread on the side and you are ready to go!

A Plastic-Free Cup of Tea
So, here is a good one for you. Tea bags contain plastic. Yep, the actual bag itself. I have found this in quite a few places, and if you give it a Google, you will probably find the same information quite easily, too. I like chai tea and, like another blog I just read, thought tea bags were fully biodegradable. I was happy that my tea bags were just in a small card box and had no film or wrapping around them. I thought they would be plastic-free, but it looks like the bags do contain plastic.

Recipe: Coconut Curry Tofu
Hello my little lovelies! Starting this year, I'm going to adopt a mostly vegan diet (please note I said mostly) in order to get back in shape and finally give my body the nutrition its been asking for a long time now. Everybody knows that I was anti-vegan for a long time, but I've been neglecting my body for too long and I need to start taking care of it. This vegan recipe is perfect for vegans and meat eaters alike, because, first off, it is delicious and, second, there are a lot of spices and flavors in this recipe that you won't even know that there's no meat in it. All you're going to know is that it tastes good so that is all you are going to care about. I mean lets face it, tofu absorbs any flavor that you put to it so if you put beef broth to it, you're going to taste beef instead of tofu.

Helping the Homeless
This article I am writing is something I have been compelled to do due to recent events on the news and what I personally have seen on the streets. For many years now we have seen homeless people living on the streets, mainly in America. But now it's becoming a common occurrence even in the UK.

Recipe: Veggie Packed Curry
Hello, my little lovelies! So, today I come back to you with another vegan curry recipe. This recipe is more vegetable heavy and doesn't really have any protein in it since I was really craving vegetables that day. This dish is perfect for those who had too much protein for the day and want to double up on their veggie intake. Now, this recipe is going to take a little on the longer side because there are squash and carrots involved in this one, and they can take a little bit to cook. But the end result is totally worth it and flavor town will be arriving in your mouth!

Best Apps for Learning How to Cook
As a former professional food critic, I can tell you that not everyone is born with natural cooking skills. In fact, even the greatest celebrity chefs had to learn how to cook at one point or another—and at times, may have even had their own stumbling blocks.

Simply Samantha: Crock-pot Country Style Steak With Bacon Gravy
Hey guys! Welcome to Simply Samantha, where the cooking is simple, and the results are oh so satisfying! When I moved in with my (now) husband, there were very few things that I knew how to make. I knew simple things like eggs, French toast, spaghetti sauce from a can, and hot dogs. So, after he got tired of the same things back to back, I had to figured out how to get creative! I remember my mother-in-law making country style steak when I would go over there after church on Sundays. She gave me a simple run down of it. I thought, "Okay, that’s easy enough," but then I realized it was more than just searing a piece of steak. I had never made gravy; I didn’t have any idea how to make the gravy. All that I knew was milk and flour; that’s all I could think.

Meat Is Murder
"Meat is murder!" I would hear my obnoxious coworker yell. Kelsi was her name. Kelsi, a 5'4" brown haired girl with perfect straight across bangs, so sweet and caring, yet could snap your neck in a blink of an eye. Obnoxious is probably an understatement; she'll shout out random noises at you as she passes, her hiccups sound like a dog is barking, and she'll probably speak to you in Korean at some point, which she taught herself. She's most definitely an introvert but isn't afraid to voice her craziness or opinions.
