Broccoli & Soy Curl Red Curry + “Homemade” Curry Paste
I already told you I’ve had an endless Thai curries craving. Well, that also had me on a search for the perfect Thai red curry paste. An excessive search. That had me in grocery stores too many times, which is really dangerous for me because I love grocery shopping and I want everything right now!…

Blueberry Lemon Coffee Cake
Another week, another loaf baked. Fall just brings out the baker in me. It will be an unofficial goal to post one baked good recipe a week for the rest of the fall/winter season. No promises, no pressure. But as long as this desire to bake keeps up, I’m going to keep frequently posting treats.

Avocado Polenta Toast Bites
I made a new version of avocado toast. Avocado on top of toasted polenta rounds! I am so happy with this creation. I had a partially-eaten tube of polenta in my fridge and thought “I had better think of some way to use this up! Maybe breakfast tomorrow…but wah, I want avocado toast for breakfast! …

Hazelnut Sipping Chocolate
When you were little, did you ever make a batch of hot cocoa that was pretty much equal parts cocoa mix to water/milk? (Hope I’m not the only one…) Well, here’s the adult version. To make it sound like a classy adult-appropriate drink, we can call it “Sipping Chocolate” a la Trader Joe’s. I saw…

Baked Lasagna Toss (aka Almost Lasagna)
I just HAD to make another recipe with the second half of this ricotta recipe. I can’t get over how much I love it. This is the recipe I thought I’d start with rather than my squash pasta, but as I mentioned I went all squash-crazy at the store, so plans changed. Now it’s time…

Roasted veggies, pasta, and a sweet-and-tangy vinaigrette = my new winning dish. Plus candied pecans! But enough was enough in the title 🙂 Just a quickie post for you today, jumping straight to the…

Peanut Butter Grilled Cheese
Preston has been telling me since we met that a peanut butter grilled cheese is one of his favorite sandwiches. Weird. So weird. The other night I made a recipe with Daiya’s new cheddar style slices, and he took a bite and said, “you know what this would be good for?” To which I immediately…

Sweet Apple Cider Oatmeal
I have been going through apple cider like nobody’s business. I bought a gallon of it in Apple Hill and slowly had a small glass almost everyday until it went away. Preston tried to pour himself a gigantic glass full and I set him straight 😉 so it lasted for a nice long time. Just…

Chocolate Babka
I have had a torn out recipe from Cooking Light for years: chocolate babka. Even though I cook all the time, there are still recipes every now and then that are completely intimidating. This was one of them. One that I simply decided to get over. Last week when I made my simple white bread,…

Squash & Roasted Garlic Ricotta Pasta
As soon as I saw this beautiful recipe for vegan ricotta, I had to give it a try. It. is. divine. Seriously don’t need to try any more ricotta recipes, this one is fantastic and simple. Expect to see a handful of ricotta recipes with this one, because I am super happy to have ricotta…
