The Last Supper?

Okay, so maybe the Last Supper flares with drama, but I have a feeling this may be the last caprese salad of the season. My tomatoes and basil are fading fast. Oh, how I dread to see them go. If you still have access to these fresh ingredients, don’t miss out. Tomatoes Basil Fresh mozzarella [...]

New Eats

Okay, so I know this isn’t a very appealing photo. A half-eaten meal isn’t going to thrill anyone, but I started scarfing it down and then realized I might want to share what I made. I bought beets in Pearl Market today. I cut off the green tops and sauteed them in a little olive [...]

Buffalo Chicken

I’ve been hearing a lot of people talk about eating Frank’s Hot Sauce, but not slopping it over greasy chicken wings. While I admit a certain attraction toward fried chicken wings, I can’t indulge in too many if I want to zip my pants. I also love to make foods that can be repurposed into [...]

Speedy and Spicy Dinner

Today I was running from one meeting to another, and the temptation to eat junk in between venues was great, especially since I missed my regularly scheduled lunch time. My morning started off pretty typical. I grabbed a banana as I left the house and packed a cup of leftover cream of wheat to eat [...]

Yummilicious Food Choices

It’s new and the same all at once. I’ve been feeling pretty bored with my food lately so this weekend I decided to put a little effort into meal and snack planning. Weekend is tough because I have the tendency, especially in the winter months, to call my bedroom aka. cave home as I carry [...]

Ten Minutes, Five Ingredients, Savory Meal

If you have 10 minutes, a pork roast and four other simple ingredients, you have a feast in the making. I’ve determined that Wednesdays are a good day to use the crock pot. Basically because my resolve starts to wane midweek, and if the smell of a mostly complete dinner greets me at the door [...]
