Meatless Monday…and Saturday and Sunday

Kyle was out of town Thursday through Monday and since I wasn’t cooking for our whole family, I found it harder to meal plan. It’s weird. I never understood the “cooking for one” dilemma previously, but it’s definitely easier to turn to less stellar options when you are only feeding yourself. I can’t really figure out why I think this is the case. Maybe because it’s annoying and hard to make one serving of something? Is it though? What did I used to do? Go to the WF hot bar? Probably. I mean I could still make… Read more >

The weekly menu

We have two video monitors and there’s nothing more delightful than pushing the “scan” button while they are both asleep in their cribs and seeing peaceful sleeping babes. Am I weird for wanting to get cameras for other places in the house? I guess I just mean the toy room. We can have up to 4 cameras per monitor so it kinda seems fun…that way while I’m in the kitchen cooking dinner and P is keeping himself occupied in the toy room with V I don’t have to wonder if the silence is good silence or bad… Read more >

Bon Appetit’s galette dough made allergy free

If you didn’t know by now (how could you not?!) I’m a Bon Appetit fanatic. I participated in the #cookthecover challenge for a while, and have double subscriptions (on my kindle and a hard copy). And when I’m in a recipe slump I hit up BA first. Basically, BA is the ish and I’m drinking the kool aid. This recipe is from the April 2014 publication. I used it as a template for the crust but made massive tweaks to make it GF and DF. So basically the “whole wheat dough” is not whole wheat at all. It… Read more >

National Hummus Day!!

IS TODAY! Ok, who is excited about this one!?! I know I’m not alone here. Hummus is basically the best food on the planet. The real shame is that I can’t enjoy it as much as I want these days since my son has a sesame allergy. Any long time readers know I used to live on hummus. It made up 50% of my diet on a conservative day, and I’m not exaggerating. And it all started back in NYC with the introduction of Sabra. Taste buds meet heaven. And then there were wedding bells….

The weekly menu

I will warn you going into this post, the planned menu was largely ignored this week thanks to the previously mentioned GI bug that made it’s way through the house. We started strong with the pulled pork Caesar (as written on the blackboard), but from there it all kinda deteriorated. This pulled pork is from Costco… The only ingredients are pork, water, salt, sodium nitrate, and spice extract. It comes with a TON of meat, and even after all three of our dinners, there’s still enough for at least four more family meals. Seriously, lots of bang… Read more >
