This was a complete and total last minute throw together. I was ready to serve tofu and veg when the little guy chimed in that he wanted curry. (He saw the pot of spicy red curry intended for Daddy.) I was in luck. I grabbed a handful of veg from the summer roll box, added […]
1. Someone gifted me with lots of late summer yummy tomatoes. 2. I’ve run out of oregano, and there was none at the store. Only tarragon. I’m not sad. 3. After making the Italian bean spread three times last week I’m still in love, but I was ready for a new version. 4. When visiting […]
Red curry with fresh tomatoes and lots of onion. I finally scored more bean thread noodles, so I’m back on a mission to perfect pad woon sen. Dizzle requested a pasta salad with more fresh tomatoes and summer squashes. I’m in love with the olive focaccia and bean spread. I’ve run out of oregano, so […]
This was a super fast throw-together stir fry. I already had veg and rice prepared for summer rolls. I grabbed that, sprinkled on a little soy sauce and lime juice, barely heated, and served. Voila! This was also accompanied by a previously requested baked sweet potato. 🙂
I started something when I did the snack plate for US Open viewing. The little guy took one look and said, “Look at that fancy pants plate!”. Love those moments of appreciation! So….I’ve happily done snack style plates for most of his dinners this week. Fun little portions of several healthy items all on one […]
My absolute favorite lunch lately is still summer rolls. (I was calling them spring rolls, but I noticed sometimes these are called summer rolls when not cooked. Whatever.) Dizzle turned me on to these, and I can’t get enough! There is a decent amount of prep work, but I’ve gotten in the habit of doing […]
This was my BIG WIN in an otherwise relatively boring food week. I love this stuff. I’ve made the bean spread twice already, once for a guest. I’m working on another batch along with another focaccia. I can’t possibly convey how much I love this stuff. Seriously. I’ve eaten quite a lot of hummus in […]
This was our US Open Women’s Finals food. Hummus, tomatoes, pickles, salsa bread sticks, roasted nuts. It also served as dinner for the 3yo tennis fan.
The little dude and I share a love of pizza for breakfast. We haven’t done it in a long while. I threw this together recently when Dizzle was out of town, and it has stuck as a once or twice a week treat. I use the tofu fresh out of the package, drained but […]
Back to business as usual. I’m in a serious rut with menus. I actually don’t mind that much because we love the meals, but I think next week will be time to roll out some new experiments. In the meantime… Oh how we love curry. We started with yellow last night. I’ll follow up tomorrow […]
