A savory, healthful crustless quiche, packed with veggies and eggs, and sacrificing none of the flavor! – – It’s time. We’ve set a date for our wedding, and while October 2018 is over a year away, I really need to do better about my eating habits. I was doing pretty good there for a while with recipes like vegetarian samosa burritos (tcc recipe), and rainbow vegetable pad thai (tcc recipe), but I’ve been pretty lax the past few months with the stress and business of buying a house and traveling up to NJ to look at wedding venues in addition to normal life. So this was an attempt to…

Rice noodles tossed with a rainbow of veggies and egg, pulled together by a complex sticky sauce and topped with fresh herbs and chopped peanuts. – – It’s been a full weekend! Luckily I have off today to recover, and generally be a lump! Sometimes you need one of those laze-about days, and I think I need one! To be fair I still have a phone call and a doubleheader volleyball match, but those aren’t until the evening so we’re gonna ignore those for now. We’ll go day by day since there was so much going on! Friday I just…

Has anyone else seen these strange savory “jams” that are a thing now? I won’t lie, I still think they’re a little strange. Delicious yes, strange, also yes. But I’m a fan! Especially of anything bacon. And since maple bacon is also a wondrous thing, I thought this was a great combination! I basically just adapted my tomato onion jam (recipe made for the juicy lucy burger) to use bacon instead of tomatoes, and use maple syrup in addition to some water. It’s pretty simple, and was a hit at our New Year’s Eve party! They went on Brunch Burger Bombs, recipe…

This recipe for Beef Kofta is another hello fresh recipe. I got another coupon in my e-mail, and with my life being ever-crazy, I figured it would be nice to skip the grocery shopping and have meals already planned! So far I’ve tried hello fresh and blue apron by way of the food services. I’ll sum up: both are good and convenient. A little expensive for my taste, except when I get coupons in which case it’s a wonderful deal. If you want to read more in-depth, check out my detailed comparison post of both: huevos rancheros quesadillas. This recipe kinda followed the pattern with…

Today, T made dinner! Like whole hog, from shopping to marinating to grilling. I mean, to be fair, I guess I made a rice side from a bag, but it was the kind where you just add water and boil. So it doesn’t count, and this meal was suuuuper tasty! Super flavorful, and not too hard. T estimated he spent less than 30 minutes total working on this, though start to finish is a little longer, since you have the marinating time in there. I will say that we did forget to throw in a few extra vegetables. We did only…

So today was game day! D&D Sunday as they usually happen to be, and instead of going all out to make all of the food, we did a potluck! It was wonderful–worked out perfectly. Zack made jalapeno poppers, Matt made quiche, and Dustin brought brownies! Tyler got away with nothing because he’s dating me, and I provided this awesome mediterranean dip! Plus he’s the DM so he has more work to do than the rest of us when it comes to preparing for D&D. This mediterranean dip recipe stems from Dara’s Healthy Mediterranean 7 Layer Dip over at Cookin’ Canuck, with a…
