souper easy!

On March 31, 2011 By

Some­times avoid­ing going to the gro­cery store is a nui­sance, like when you end up liv­ing off of stale cereal and ques­tion­ably old soy milk.

Other times, it forces you to use up ran­dom things in your fridge, on the edge of extinc­tion, and deliv­ers deli­cious results.

Thank­fully this is the result of the lat­ter scenario, […]

seussical st. patty’s soup

On March 17, 2011 By

Green eggs and ham not only sounds dis­gust­ing, but is also likely to induce stom­ach aches if you’ve indulged in too much green beer. But some refresh­ing and nat­u­rally green soup, chocked full of roasted gar­lic, white beans and greens, is sure to help detox that liver and perk you up.

tasty tempeh crumbles

On March 3, 2011 By

These tem­peh crum­bles are per­fect: nutty, smoky, chewy and deli­cious.  In a wrap, between two slices of bread, sprin­kled over a salad– there are end­less ways to enjoy these lit­tle morsels of good­ness.  Give them a try and I can guar­an­tee that you won’t be disappointed.

winner, winner, chickpea dinner!

On November 23, 2010 By

When there are lots of things going on in your life at the same time, the first thing to usu­ally go is a good meal plan. Quick fixes and faux meat tend to fill the gaps and I always can always feel it. It makes me slug­gish and just feel icky, frankly.

We’re mid-move […]

tomay-to, tomah-to…

On November 16, 2010 By

Okay, I’m kind of suck­ing at MoFo. I think Novem­ber is not as good a month for it, it’s too busy. Plus, I have some news to share soon (no, I’m not preg­nant) that has been tying up my time, but that will come.

I love me some tomato soup. It’s my go-to food when I’m […]

cold weather = hearty food

On October 21, 2010 By

HP friends, sorry to say there is noth­ing Harry Pot­ter related in this post. Many more to come, though!

My life, as of late, has con­sisted of work and bak­ing. LOTS of bak­ing. Not to com­plain, but woman can­not live on cake alone. (You think I lie. For realz, though, if any­one could it would […]

a taste for fall…

On October 5, 2010 By

As the cooler weather sets in, I start to crave com­fort foods. While not nec­es­sar­ily look­ing for overly hearty fare, chilly nights and layer-weather beck­ons for some­thing that sticks to your ribs. Let’s take a stroll down mem­ory lane for some recipes that fit the bill.

Some Cur­ried Car­rot Soup is sim­ple to […]

a visit to my library

On July 19, 2010 By

I have a lot of cook­books. A LOT. I have man­aged to purge some over the past year, but I still own far more than I ever use. And hon­estly, I don’t usu­ally use cook­books very often. I love to read them, page through them, and fan­ta­size over them, but I am too fickle to […]
