    December 9, 2015

    This past week was a struggle.  Actually, all (two) weeks since Thanksgiving.  Even with the Hello Fresh meals eliminating some meal planning and grocery shopping, I’ve felt like a crazy person.  Just this past weekend there was our company holiday…

    December 7, 2015

    So we made individual garlic monkey breads as a quick side to caesar chicken tortellini the other other night!  They were quite tasty, and simple to boot, considering I pretty much always have some biscuit dough floating around in my…

  • first hello fresh meal: dijon walnut salmon & couscous;

    December 2, 2015

    So a friend sent me a Hello Fresh discount code for 1/2 off a week’s delivery and I forgot about it for months until I got a reminder e-mail from Hello Fresh (guess those reminder e-mails do work!).  And it…

  • cake batter chocolate chip cookies;

    November 18, 2015

    These are yum and fun to pull out!  I found that the recipe I used (see below) was actually a bit sweet, and judging by my taste-test of the batter, I think the cookies lost some of their cake-batter-ness with…

  • stuffed pizza rolls;

    November 16, 2015

    I’ve been cooking up a storm lately, so we’ve been eating leftovers out the wahzoo.  They’re delicious, but they impede my cooking because I don’t want to waste food!  So I made pot pie filling the other day for an…

  • roasted brussel sprouts;

    November 14, 2015

    I recently discovered that I don’t mind brussel sprouts.  I honestly had never tried them before last year when I first made this recipe.  To be fair, it was because my mother hates them and obviously never made them for…

  • pecan pie fudge;

    November 5, 2015

    So what I am about to write might be blasphemy.  I’m not a huge fan of every single fall staple.  I don’t really like apple pie.  I only recently started liking stuffing.  I don’t really like pumpkin flavored things.  I don’t…

    November 3, 2015

    I really wanted to make these lamb kebabs!  I’d never really made lamb before, and these looked simple and tasty.  The spices were definitely aromatic as you heat them up on the stove, although I didn’t do a wonderful job…

    October 28, 2015

    This recipe is one of those easy, pretty, and tasty ones!  This works with both spicy and sweet Italian sausage, as I’ve used both and it’s tasty both ways!  I served Drunken Italian Noodles with homemade applesauce and Parmesan edamame…

  • chicken pesto burger;

    August 25, 2015

    It’s pretty rare that I make a recipe from scratch.  Most times I just browse pinterest until I’m drooling then pick the thing that is most drool-worthy that day.  But these chicken burgers are quite tasty, and I’m pretty proud…
