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 had decided that I wanted to [...]

Vegetarian Enchiladas
Spicy Black Beans
My husband “doesn’t like black beans.” At least, that’s what he thought.
In addition to the goals I mentioned in my first Ten in 10 post, another ongoing goal that I have is to make more vegetarian meals. I typically make one or two vegetarian dinners each week, but I would like to be eating meatless meals [...]
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 the store. It was free, though, [...]
Vegetable Frittata

Napoleon: “Fine!”
I have probably seen that movie 50 times, but I still laugh every time I watch it. And, I annoy everyone I know with quotes [...]

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 Earth Day resolutions are a lot [...]
Roasted Vegetable Lasagne
Here is another vegetarian dinner that I like to make. It’s not a quick meal to make, but if you can spare the time, it’s definitely worth it! You can play around with the roasted vegetables and pick ones that you like – bell peppers, mushrooms, and zucchini are my favorite.
Ingredients:
3 small zucchini, cut into [...]
Asian Inspired Vegetable Stir Fry
I try to cook a few vegetarian meals each week. Sometimes it can be difficult to come up with new, flavorful, and satisfying recipes that both my husband and I will enjoy. This vegetable stir fry is filling, because it’s high in fiber, and also very flavorful. I have spiced things up with some of my [...]
