We've had some beautiful tomatoes from our CSA this summer. I haven't really cooked with them much, though... They seem to get eaten up before I ever have a chance to use them. So, I was thrilled to have a few tomatoes on hand the other day for lunch ...

Grilled Vegetable Tacos
We've been making a conscious effort to eat more vegetarian meals throughout the week. In comparison to many families, we don't eat a lot of meat. But, I think we can do better. My goal is to cut back to having fish/poultry 1-2 times a week and meat no ...
