Roasted Carrot, Sweet Potato and Apple Soup
Sometimes I like to cook meals based on color. Maybe because I’m a weirdo. Maybe it’s because if I’m taking the time to cook something made to taste good, I’d like for it to look appetizing as well–and for me, … Continue reading

Avocado Green Tomato Salsa
I love recipes that come from unplanned tweaking. Most of the time. For the last couple weeks, I’ve seen great, fresh tomatillos in the food co-op. When we planned a little dinner party for this week, I decided on black … Continue reading

Vegetarian Chorizo, Cheese and Corn Empanadas
Most people thought of this past Sunday as Easter Sunday, which it certainly was… but April 8th was also National Empanada Day. I can’t remember where I first had these little Latin American and Spanish pockets of deliciousness, but I’ll … Continue reading

Creamy Cheesy Polenta
Honestly, I can’t tell you what the difference is between grits and polenta. I’ve read various things here and there, and the most I can gather is that both are a type of mush made from coarse ground corn: typically … Continue reading

Roasted Asparagus and Sweet Pepper Frittata
I must admit, I love to sleep in. Especially through the winter and early spring, when my insomniac tendencies are at their all time high. Sometimes “bedtime” is nearly 3 AM, which means waking up falls somewhere between 9 and … Continue reading

Avocado Alfredo
This will look questionable. It sounds questionable. Consider that your forewarning, but please don’t let it keep you from at least considering this dish. It’s good. It’s good for you. Again, don’t let that stop you. I grew up around … Continue reading
Panko Breaded Baked Tofu
I watched a rerun of America’s Worst Cooks the other night. Don’t hold a grudge. We don’t have TV so I’m limited to Hulu cooking shows and Netflix movies. AWC seemed like an okay decision at 11:30, post wine-consumption. The … Continue reading

Spinach and Ricotta Dumplings with Shrimp in Cream Sauce
I first heard of Pinterest a handful of months ago, while reading through some of my favorite food blogs. I do understand some of the controversies of the site, especially its rampant issues with copyrights… I try to link … Continue reading
Veggie Marinara Pasta Bake
Rarely does pasta sound unappealing to me. I’m pretty sure I’ve said that before. My go-to recipe is creamy, heavy on the basil and garlic. This isn’t that recipe. This one’s slightly chunky, not at all creamy, but also a … Continue reading
