It is finally feeling like summer… AKA 100% humidity and 80+ degree weather. Which means that I do not want to turn on my oven to make dinner. So that means that I turn to the grill. All the heat stays outside and we end up with dinner that is delicious and nutritious! So, it’s a win…
Easy As (Spaghetti) Pie
Is anyone else obsessed with Buzzfeed Tasty videos? They are probably my favorite thing on social media right now, because who does not love a high-speed, crave-worthy recipe? Also, their set is !!! (and I love that they use basic kitchen equipment that we ALL have in our kitchen… yay for accessibility!). During my daily…
Gigantes (AKA Greek Giant Beans)
Hi! I missed you! And because I missed you so much, I want to share my newest recipe obsession – these AH-mazing Gigantes… AKA Greek Giant Beans. They are these awesome giant beans that are boiled until tender and then stewed in a homemade tomato sauce, turning into a glorious casserole of heartiness that is a…
Pizza Bagels
This past weekend was Easter Weekend, which meant family, fun, and a whole lot of food. Since my sister was here (and it was a holiday weekend), I chucked my CNSC book to the side and decided to give myself the weekend off. (best. decision. ever) After a weekend filled with sister time, chocolate bunnies,…
The Easiest Beans and Rice
Happy Friday, everyone! At the end of a long week, all I want to do is sit down to an easy dinner with my crew and enjoy a long leisurely dinner. It is my absolute favorite way to wind down after a crazy, hectic week before heading into a crazy, hectic weekend. My favorite go-to,…
Roasted Vegetable + Farro Grain Bowls
I love playing with my food. Which means that I LOVE grain bowls. My favorite way to eat is having the ability to create my own meal from a bunch of different options right in front of me (pancake bar, mimosa bar, chili bar… you name it, I love it!). Grain bowls lend themselves beautifully to…
Spanakopita Galette
This magnificent creation is the Spanakopita Galette. Or the “Spinach Pie Cake”. Or the “Flat Cake Made of Spinach Pie”. Or the “Yay, it’s finally Pi Day and we should celebrate!” dinner of champions. (definitely the last one!) Today is March 14th, AKA Pi Day. This is the day were all math classes come to…
Butternut Squash Pizza
Guys… THIS IS A GAME-CHANGER. Butternut squash + pizza = !! As you all know, I love pizza more than anything. And when I went to my local pizza restaurant a few years ago and spotted a pizza that was smothered in butternut squash puree, sautéed spinach, and bacon, I was floored. Butternut squash instead of…
BBQ Chicken Pizza
So this is actually is not my recipe. It’s E’s. My sister is amazing. She is on a stellar career-path, runs half-marathons, and is an awesome human being. While she is rocking her work place and running obscene amounts of miles, she really does not like to cook. During our schooling overlap (my two years…
Basil Pesto
Pesto is my jam. I love it on pasta (see recipes number one, two, three). I love it on sandwiches. I love it in salads. I love it on a spoon… *no shame* As you can see, I am pretty obsessed with pesto sauce. Besides it’s delicious flavor, I love that pesto is SO EASY…
