  • Cast Iron Skillet Pesto Pizza

    Introducing the best pizza I’ve had in YEARS. Oh MAN does this pizza impress. This was a group effort the other night – my brother-in-law, sister, and I all worked on getting this pizza together. We fought with it, we had a serious setback, we had delays. But an hour and a half later when…

  • Mushroom & Artichoke Pastry Cups

    I have been working on my “use my cookbooks” goal a bit more this month, and doing pretty well.  This simple and incredible meal came from a cookbook, and I just HAD to share.  These awesome little pastry cups are filled with sautéed mushrooms, garlic, chives, and marinated artichoke hearts and stuffed into puff pastry. …

  • Stuffed Avocado Nacho Bowls

    Quickie recipe post today! I found a low-maintenance, super easy meal that is SO.MUCH.FUN. Like most of my favorite recipes, this is also easily adjustable so you can make it suit your own taste.  Or give it some variety and make it over and over and over again.

  • Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Pizza w/ Mushrooms & Caramelized Onions

    Happy Tuesday, folks!  How is your week going? My last couple weeks at my new job are flying by faster than usual.  I think that’s a good thing.  But I also have no idea where all the time is going! But more of it should go to food, probably.  Food time.  For sure.

  • Marsala & Garlic Roasted Mushrooms

    Want some mushrooms that have been roasted in sweet wine?  With lots of garlic too? I thought you might. I have never had marsala wine before, but always wanted to try, so I picked up a bottle at Trader Joe’s this weekend and just tested cooking a couple mushrooms that I’d completely drenched in it. …

  • Everyday Sauteed Mushrooms

    You know what’s weird?  Sometimes I forget that my favorite go-to dishes would make a great post!  This mushroom recipe is a really common side-dish to my dinners; in fact, it’s so commonplace to me that I failed to realize that it is still blog-worthy.  But then other day I had some friends over for…

  • Mushroom & Brown Rice Noodle Soup

    Now that it’s pretty much winter, prepare for more soup posts!  I love winter soups.  Nothing warms your soul and fills your belly more!  I planned this to be a soba noodle soup, but when I was perusing the noodle section, this pre-packaged Happy Pho box really caught my eye.  So this is half my…

  • Mapled Squash & Sauteed Mushroom Fall Salad

    Alright, my last couple posts were fall in a mug and fall in a bowl (well, I guess my bowl was really a giant mug.  Technicality.)  Now fall on a plate!  I had originally titled this my “Beckoning Fall Salad,” because I planned to post it last week when the weather was still bright and…

  • Truffled Mushroom Bruschetta

    Truffled mushrooms.    On toasty whole grain bread.   I’m not sure I need to say anything else. Here’s a super quick and simple recipe (and post) for you.  This is one of my go-to snacks.  Or a little treat to put on the side of a big salad for lunch or dinner.  It’s fast,…

  • Creamy Vegetable Bolognese Pasta

      This is the first recipe I vegan-ized after my vegan switch!   It is a brilliant tasty recipe for vegetable bolognese sauce from the lovely Giada DeLaurentiis.  And veganizing it is super-simple – just swap some Tofutti cream cheese for the mascarpone cheese the recipe calls for, leave out the parm, and you have…
