I have a thing against pre-boiling lasagna noodles. Most prep work I don’t mind doing, especially if it will make the final product that much better. But I’ve never really felt found a difference in lasagna texture and the cook time doesn’t change – so why bother? It doesn’t help that the only time I […]

I know I was MIA again on Monday. I promise I’m not being flaky on purpose! After being sick all of last week, I went to Chicago for the weekend. I definitely wasn’t 100% ready for that adventure, but I’d agreed over a month ago to go to this Chive meet up with Josh, so […]

I know the name of this recipe sounds so weird, but hang in there, okay? I’m clearly not the best at naming recipes and normally just use descriptive titles. I’m just not a cutesy person. I’m not into pink or frilly (shiny is a whole different story!) and coming up with adorable names does not […]

Oddly enough, my favorite part about ordering a pizza is getting a big Greek salad to go with it. I put my salad either right next to or right on top of my pizza and let the dressing get all over. There’s something crazy delicious about the combination of a vinegary dressing, crust, and pizza. […]

I love a nice, coarse, dense cornbread. Josh is more of a cakey, floury cornbread fan. We’ve seen and tried a lot of recipes for a sweet breakfasty cornbread and both of us were yet to be impressed. I set out to make a sweet cornbread loaf to have for breakfast last week and found […]

Happy Pi Day!! Definitely in the top 5 of every nerd’s favorite holidays. Because I’m a super nerd, I decided to throw in an extra post this week to celebrate. I’m not normally a pie person (something about gelatinous fruit goo just doesn’t sit right with me!), but I have been known to go crazy […]

I am a pancake lover. They’re in my top 3 favorite foods and I usually make them at least once a week. I have all kinds of pancake recipes I like to use, most of which are vegan. I’ve only posted one recipe so far, so I figured it was high time to celebrate a […]

Brussels sprouts are one of those things that I’ve heard so many awful things about, I never bothered to try them. Recently, they’ve been popping up on pretty much every blog I read, so I figured I’d finally give them a try. I saw a recipe for Buffalo Veggie Pasta bake over on Coffee and […]

It’s Lent right now and that’s pretty much my favorite time of the year. As a mostly vegetarian, sometimes fish eater, every Catholic on the planet eats like me on Fridays. It’s the only time of year where my obnoxious restaurant questions can be excused and menu items are specifically tailored to my diet. One […]

Eggplant parmigiana is one of my favorite foods to get at an Italian restaurant. It’s so comforting, but it’s also so fattening. When I randomly found a 4 oz jar of my homemade spaghetti sauce I thought was long gone, I knew I had to do something special with it and lightened up eggplant parmigiana […]
