This is a dish that I first made last week for a new mom. We’ve typically made this recipe, but it tastes best with sausage in it – and my friend only eats chicken. So, I did a bit of searching on Pinterest, and found this very appealing recipe. It went over really well, so I decided to make it ... Read More »

Meatless Monday: Guacammous
Last week sort of knocked me flat on my back, and I didn’t even have kids heading to school. I did, on the other hand, start babysitting – and had 2 long (7:30-5:30) days of 5 kids under 5. Between recovering from the Long Weekend’s antics, babysitting, and trying to get my house in some sort of respectable shape (I ... Read More »
Vegetarian Zucchini Boats
I happened to get a bunch of zucchini on clearance yesterday and wanted to do something fun with it. The kids and I searched on Pinterest and decided on zucchini boats.

I’ve tried a few different Eggplant Parm recipes in the past couple years, but all of them just required way too much work for me to repeat them again – the egging, breading, & frying BEFORE all of the work to make them actually happens! So I was thrilled to find this recipe from Chic galleria in which the eggplant was ... Read More »

Meatless Monday: Goat Cheese & Fresh Herbs Soufflé
Along with those super delicious spinachballs that my two-year-old just devoured, I made an attempt at my very first soufflé.My first exposure to soufflé was watching Sabrina (the classic movie with Audrey Hepburn, not the teenage witch). She learned how to bake a soufflé when she went off to cooking school in Paris. “A woman happily in love, she burns ... Read More »
Meatless Monday: Spinachballs
Yes. Spinachballs. Like meatballs. But instead of meat, spinach. And you know what? They’re really good. My husband and I really liked them. But our 2-year old toddler, who believes that he’s allergic to vegetables? LOVED them. I’m fairly certain that he ate about 1/2lb of spinach last night. I’m not exaggerating. Yesterday during naptime, I was frantically searching my ... Read More »
