We bought duraflame logs at Target last week so that means it’s officially fall. The season of soups and stews! Or maybe that’s winter. Either way, it’s time for warm comfort food. Crock pot recipes do NOT photograph well (and I’m not the type of blogger to dirty extra dishes to better show off a recipe). So you’ll just have to trust me that this tastes better than it looks. I know I have a (few?) chili recipe(s) on HHH already but this was really good. Plus, after a summer of neglect, the… Read more >

I’ve been on a Mexican kick. Namely a nachos kick. I know I said I was going to show all my eats, day by day, but the highlight of this day was this guy, so why bother with the other stuff. It’s nacho time!!! What makes up the nachos? tortilla chips (plus the remainder of the riceworks chips) black beans daiya shredded mozzarella tomatoes Sabra pico de gallo avocado Green Valley organic lactose free sour cream There’s really no rules on the process, just pile things on more things and keep piling… Read more >

You’d think after a week of breakfast burritos Kyle wouldn’t be stoked for Mexican night, but you’d be wrong. [The above is a burrito I made for him with Boca veggie chik’n burgers, salsa, & cheddar] For both of us, I made this huge thing of brown rice, pinto beans, and salsa because it allows for flexible meal creation. brown rice –> 2 cups in the rice maker pinto beans –> 1 cup in the rice maker salsa –> 1/2 cup of Sabra’s mango peach salsa (!!!) Super easy. For vegan options:… Read more >

Don’t let “perfect” be the enemy of “good”. That’s one of my favorite phrases. We could all do well to remember it, which is why I’m posting it here. I get questions and comments all the time about foods that I show on the blog or use in recipes that are/are not FODMAPs friendly. I’m not perfect.

Another weekend filled with outings and travel and showing off our little man! Starting with a leisurely Friday. Since I finally polished off the last of the millionth loaf of banana bread I made, I decided to bake a new somethin’ somethin’. More on the above [oatmeal caramel creation] later… This is my new favorite meal. It’s been on repeat, so don’t be surprised if you keep on seeing it. That’s an egg/avo combo on toasted Essential Baking Co bread with a side of veggies (tomatoes from my garden). Look I finally… Read more >
