Last week I wasn't able to write my Friday Favorites post... But, I had a good reason! We were camping (and by camping, I mean renting a cabin) in the woods, and I had no cell phone or internet access. Honestly, it was relaxing to ...

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 ...
Pasta e Fagioli Soup with Kale
The best thing about slow cooker recipes is that I usually have leftovers. When I take the time to prepare a meal in my slow cooker, I always make sure to make a large batch so that I can use it later in the week or pop it into the ...
Friday Favorites – Episode 46
I am happy to announce that I have not let my RSS reader get out of control again this week. In fact, for about 5 minutes during the middle of the week I achieved the ultimate RSS reader goal - ZERO unread items. It was very short-lived, but I ...
Vegetarian Enchiladas
Sometimes I have a clear cut idea of exactly what I am going to do when I attempt a new recipe... Other times, I just have a general concept, and I just go with the flow as I'm cooking. This recipe was a result of one of those times! I ...

Roasted Eggplant and Squash Pasta
During the Penny Pinching Pantry Raid, I was determined to use up the two bags of Wacky Mac (multi-colored rotini-like pasta) that were hanging out in my pantry. I'm not exactly sure what I thought I was going to do with them when I picked up two bags at ...
Vegetable Frittata
Each week, I try to make a few vegetarian meals - it's both eco-friendly and waistline-friendly. In the past, I have made frittatas with ham, but this week I had a nice selection of my favorite veggies on hand, so I decided to make a meat-free frittata for dinner. ...
Roasted Corn Quesadillas
Each time I make quesadillas, I am reminded of one of my favorite movies.. Napoleon: "Well what's there to eat?" Grandma: "Knock it off, Napoleon, make yourself a dang quesadilla!" Napoleon: "Fine!" I have probably seen that movie 50 times, but I still laugh every time I watch it. And, I ...
Friday Favorites – Episode 6
In honor of Earth Day, I thought it was only appropriate that I pick my favorite Earth Day themed posts from the past week. I think it's great that everyone gets into the spirit of Earth Day and tries to conserve energy and resources... I just always wonder if ...
