I first started cooking for myself when I was in college and lived in an on-campus townhouse with 3 other roommates. Taco night was always a big hit. We would pick up one of those taco kits - you know the ones, with taco shells, salsa, and a taco ...

Pesto Pasta Primavera
I almost called this recipe "Presto Pesto Pasta Primavera," but I thought that might be a bit much. The thing is, it's really quick and easy... Especially if you already have some homemade garlic scape pesto on hand! Even if you don't have the pesto, that can be ...
Fresh Cherry Tomato Salsa
During the summer, I love to make fresh salsa. We don't have fresh tomatoes from our garden yet, and we've only had a few tomatoes from the CSA. So, I picked up a pint of organic cherry tomatoes at the store to make some salsa. I've never made ...
Sausage, Pepper, and Onion Stromboli
I love stromboli... Especially in cold weather! I'm not sure what it is about cold weather that makes me hungry for stromboli, but ever since we had a taste of snow over the weekend, I have been wanting to make stromboli. A lot of the time when I make stromboli, ...
Cheesy Baked Pasta with Collards and Bacon

Caramelized Onion Burgers
What could be more delicious than caramelized onions? Caramelized onion burgers, of course. Sometimes I just get hungry for a nice juicy burger for dinner. I think one of the reasons that I like burgers so much is that they are a blank canvas. This time around, my inspiration was caramelized ...
Grilled Chicken and Vegetable Fajitas
I don't know if it has been the heat or just lack of enthusiasm on my part, but I have been having trouble figuring out what to cook lately. I think part of it is the fact that everything I want to eat doesn't register real well with trying ...
Mexican Cucumber Salad
I don't know about you, but when it's hot and humid in the summer, the last thing I want to do is cook on the stove or use the oven. With the amount of delicious fresh produce I have been getting from our CSA and our garden, I ...
Mexican Cabbage Rolls
While this dish was inspired by my beef enchilada recipe, I am not going to try to tell you that cabbage rolls and enchiladas are the same thing. That's like those diet articles that say to substitute carrot sticks for french fries, a bowl of fruit for ...
