Fall Harvest Salad
Can you believe I got off my pregnant behind (well, I guess I’m still on it) to write you a post today? Things have been nuts/bananas around here lately- pregnancy drama-rama, busy schedules, all of that. I have sort of lost my cooking mojo lately, to be honest. I joined a little freezer co-op a […]
Small Batch Natural Applesauce
Hi muffins! I was making another batch of applesauce this afternoon and I realized that it’s something I’ve never shared with you. I started making this applesauce when my little guy was six months old and ready to start solid food. As you can probably guess, I wasn’t into buying pre-made baby food and instead, […]
Jim Lahey’s Stecca Bread
I mentioned in my last post that we love great bread at our picnics. Sometimes we just tear it up and eat it in chunks with cheese and fruit and sometimes we’ll do sandwiches. For some reason, great bread just makes a picnic more memorable (and obviously more delicious). This recipe is a perfect picnic […]
Smoky Pork Tacos
Friends, we’re all lucky today that I found my way out of bed and stumbled over to the computer to write this post. My house got hit with the stomach bug this weekend and it has been aw–ful. Friday, I got it. Saturday, I attempted to recover. Sunday, baby got it, then husband got it. […]
Corn, Crab and Tomato Salad
Happy May, ladies and gents! I want to start of the month with a little giveaway for you.. how does that sound? The lovely folks at Cooking Light have come out with a new cookbook called Way To Cook. This cookbook isn’t just your typical pretty food photography and written recipes. The book takes you […]
Swiss Chard Dumplings in Chive Broth
It’s been quite a month over here. Lots of vegan and vegetarian recipes, some personal, vegan-related drama and some probably not veganize-able (what?) Nutella cookies. I’m closing out all of this nonsense today with a recipe that can work for all diets; carnivores, vegetarians and vegans alike. I’ve made this recipe twice in the recent […]
Spinach Kale and Pear Smoothie
Green drink! Are you in, loves? My last attempt at a green smoothie wasn’t exactly what I hoped for. So, I picked myself up and found some more green inspiration. Kale. Spinach. Pear. YUM. This smoothie looks very green, but you don’t actually taste any of the green stuff. All I really tasted was the […]
Vegan CocoNana Mini Muffins
Even though I’m not living the vegan lifestyle anymore, I’m still finding ways to enjoy vegan recipes in my diet. I saw this recipe this morning on Miss Mary‘s blog and I had to jump right in and make them! They looked delicious and simple, and they were. The name CocoNana refers to the coconut […]
Part-Time Vegan, Day 4
I ate too many cookies today. ‘Cause, you know.. sugar’s vegan. (Woo hoo!) Breakfast was a peanut butter banana wrap with almond milk. Lunch was the salad bar at Lane’s. Snack was (too many!!) vegan chocolate chip cookies. Dinner was leftover pasta. Let me just tell you about this banana wrap. I make this […]
Part-Time Vegan, Day 3
Today didn’t start out as hungry as yesterday. Maybe I’m starting to get used to it.. maybe? Breakfast was an avocado smoothie and jelly toast. Snack was wheat crackers and a strawberry popsicle. Lunch was asparagus soup and a slice of leftover tart. Dinner was chickpea saute with onions and kale, served over rice. I […]
