I made this cornbread for one purpose. Salad croutons. All the cornbread panzanellas have been floating around in my mind lately. So I had to do one too. So I did. And it was good. And so I had the same thing for my next meal. And the next. And the next. And the cornbread was gone in 48 hours and 4 meals. The end. This recipe is not meant to be eaten as cornbread. It’s purely a salad accompaniment. Crispy Cornbread (for salad croutons) [vegan, gluten free, dairy free] Ingredients:… Read more >

Parties all around this weekend! And lots of driving to get to them all! This was the only thing I took a picture of on Thursday. Clearly it was the highlight of my eating day (the highlight in the non-food realm was Peyton Manning scoring a million points for my fantasy team). Dove dark chocolate is crazy good. My mom gave us two bars as a part of a wedding anniversary present and I had been saving them…for what I don’t know. I wasn’t expecting to love it as much as I did though. … Read more >

Quick meals these days! My philosophy: Throw something on toast or a bed of lettuce and call it a day. [The Essential Baking Co] GF toast with avocado and goat cheese. GF toast with almond butter and a fried egg. GF toast with goat cheese and smoked salmon and balsamic glaze (carrots and grapes on the side). GF toast with goat cheese and eggplant “bacon” Had this a few times…topped with fried eggs to make it extra snazzy. And now for the salads… Spinach, tomato, carrots, avocado, and (lots of) hemp seeds…. Read more >

Saturday and Sunday were weekend warrior status for me (boo). I work every 3rd weekend at the hospital which is a nice change from my previous jobs that were every other. I guess that’s one of the big differences between full time and part time. But it was still a bummer since the rest of the world had long weekend. Anyway, my holiday pay started at midnight on Sunday (I think?) so even though I didn’t work on Monday I still got a little somethin somethin for ruining my 3 day off getaway potential. … Read more >

I said that to Kyle an embarrassing number of times on our last Costco run. First of all, I was in a really lazy rut with food prep. But in reality, I’m more and more impressed with the Costco selection every time we go! Why should I make anything from scratch!?! [I kid, my love for the kitchen will obviously prevail, but my previous point is still valid. Costco FTW!] This dinner came together in a matter of minutes – and how fancy does it look! An avocado and goat cheese massaged kale… Read more >
