Make Lunch Ahead: Baked Chili Brown Rice and Vegetables

As I mentioned a few months ago, I’ve been trying to make food during the weekend that Brian and I can take to school as a hot lunch.  My favorite recipes make a lot of food with little effort and require few dishes or utensils at work. Last week I made Curried Brown Rice with [...]

Getting to Know Nutritional Yeast

Contrary to popular belief, I never set out to be one of those people who eats weird food.  Healthier food, maybe.  Homemade food, definitely.  But I’m not really interested in being known for my strange food choices.  In fact, I tend to shy away from trendy ingredients.  So, while a lot of other healthy living [...]

Kicking off Squash Season with Spaghetti Squash

Winter is quickly approaching (at least, that’s what they tell me, but it’s supposed to reach 80 degrees here today).  As much as I hate winter, I’m definitely looking forward to the return of winter produce, especially squash.  I don’t know how I survived the first 25 years or so of my life without eating [...]

For Fall: Creamy Leek and Potato Soup

After my weekend realization that fall is here and the onset of a head cold that makes me want to stay in bed all day, there was only one thing I could do: make soup.  Luckily I picked up some excellent soup ingredients at the farm last week. I decided to use our CSA leek, [...]

Pizza, for Breakfast

Pizza is a frequent meal in our home and I’ve made some pretty good ones since I started seriously cooking almost 3 years ago (including this one).  It’s also no secret that I love eggs.  This pizza is the best of both worlds and, as a result, one of my new favorites.  I was inspired [...]

Cooking For Other People (+ a Pasta Recipe)

I love cooking for other people, possibly more than I like cooking for myself. I love to share my creations with my friends and get their feedback. Sometimes I try to brainstorm people I can cook for just so I can do more cooking. Unfortunately, when the opportunity often arises for me to do so, [...]

Creamy Rutabaga and Potato Soup

I spent a bit of time in the kitchen this weekend in celebration of being caught up with my life.  In hopes of using some of last week’s CSA veggies, I dug up a recipe for Cream of Turnip soup in Evernote. Of course, when it came time to cook dinner, I realized that I [...]

Guest Post: Cynthia's Simple Polenta Pizza

I discovered Cynthia this fall through Healthy Living Blogs-it was so exciting to meet another blogger just minutes from my home!  We’ve been hanging out routinely ever since and she was quick to respond to my desperate email for help lightening my load this week.  She sent along this recipe for Simple Polenta Pizza and [...]

My First Tempeh

As you may recall, I got a new cookbook for Christmas: The Meat Lover’s Meatless Cookbook by Kim O’Donnel .  My parents bought it for me, chosen largely at random from my inappropriately long Amazon wishlist.  And I am in love with this cookbook.  In the 2 and a 1/2 weeks that it’s been in [...]
