Roasted Corn and Goat Cheese Quesadillas
I love me some quesadillas. Quick, easy, cheesy. These quesadillas switch it up a bit- subbing the normal mexican blend with goat cheese, which gives it a tang that pairs well with the sweet corn. I served these up with some rice and black beans to round out the meal. They’d be great as appetizers, […]
Fun with Veggies: Cauliflower and Lentil Curry
Nick and I have been on a little bit of a veggie kick lately. Not because we don’t love meat, because we do. It’s because we found out red meat’s impact on the environment, and we’re trying to help out for a little bit. Plus sometimes veggies are cheap. And they’re good for you. And […]
Tuesdays with Dorie: French Yogurt Cake with Orange Marmalade
There are a few things I’ve thanked the French for in my life. Namely baguettes and berets. But this French Yogurt Cake (chosen by Liliana) has made me more thankful for the French than ever. Check out this ooey, gooey, marmaladey slice.. so moist it’s toppling over! I made 1/3 of the recipe, and used […]
Homemade Orange Marmalade
Orange marmalade is kind of a random thing for me to make. The reason I made this recipe in the first place is because I needed some marmalade for this week’s TWD recipe (check tomorrow to see how I used it!). I didn’t really want to buy a jar of marmalade, and I had a […]
You Want Pies With That? Rosemary Apple Crumb Pie
Pies? And herbs? Really? Yes, really! This month’s You Want Pies With That? challenge, chosen by Elizabeth, was this: “After playing with a few ideas, I’ve decided on “Herbs and Spices” as the theme. I think there’s a lot of possibilities there. Obviously a lot of spices go well with pies (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger etc) […]
Playing Around: Blueberry Peach Treats
Today, while I was working on my entry for this month’s You Want Pies with That?, I decided to throw together another little creation- Mini Blueberry Peach Pie and Blueberry Peach Crumble. I was feeling summery, and these little treats really did the trick! To make the pie, I used up some leftover tart dough […]
Amazing Glazed Salmon: This Glaze is like Candy.
This picture was taken in motion- we were wayyyy too excited to eat this. I think most of us would agree that glazes are delicious. Who can argue with adding a little sugar to a savory item? But people, this glaze is outstanding. We used it on some salmon fillets – first I sauteed them […]
Tuesdays with Dorie: Vanilla Almond Cup Custard
This week’s TWD is filled with controversy- who knew so many people disliked eggy custards? It’s a phenomenon I’ve yet to understand, because I enjoyed this week’s TWD. The chosen recipe was Lemon Cup Custard, and the chooser was Miss Bridget from The Way the Cookie Crumbles. I say, kudos, Bridget, for trying something a […]
Saturday Fun: Julie’s Baby Shower
As you know, I love to cook and entertain for people. Yesterday, Tammi and I threw a baby shower for our lovely friend Julie, who is expecting a baby boy (Hank!). Julie had already had two big baby showers, so we decided to do something a little different from basic blue and do a green […]
I know, I said I was done talking about cupcakes, but..
