On today's show we continue our conversation about the readings from Sunday's Mass – Jesus' Bread of Life discourse from John, Chapter 6 – and I share with you suggestions on how to make your grocery dollars stretch. You can save money by regrowing your vegetables... in water! That's right. Lettuces, green onions, cabbages and more can be regrown in containers of water in your kitchen.

Bread from Heaven and French Baguettes… Today on The Catholic Foodie Show we talk about the readings from yesterday’s Mass and what they could mean for me and you. We also talk French Baguettes with a recipe from my friend Craig Poirier. Full show notes, including the recipe, are available by clicking here: CatholicFoodie.com.

PART 2 - Sunday's Mass readings were all about feeding and being fed. From Elisha's multiplying food and feeding 100 people in the Second Book of Kings to Jesus feeding the 5000 in the Gospel of John, we are reminded – as the Responsorial Psalm tells us – that "the hand of the Lord feeds us; he answers all our needs."

Technical difficulties, Monday morning foggy-headedness, and simply having too many things on my plate, make this one of the most challenging shows that I have done. Still, I think that the love of God and the goodness of pizza still shine through. 

The second half of the show contains excerpts from an interview I did a couple of years ago with my friend Andris Lagsdin, the founder and creator of the Baking Steel. Lots of good info – and good stories – here, folks, for those of you who love to eat good pizza, and for those who like to make good pizzas at home.
