Extra eggs

Our neighbors texted our group chat that they had too many eggs and needed to unload some…so I sent Kyle over to collect some (thinking he’d come back with a half dozen or so). And this wasn’t even all of them! Suffice it to say, we’ve been eating a lot of eggs! I’ve made a strata, two quiches, and hard boiled a dozen…and lots of breakfast omelets… This egg and veggie dish had tomatoes, bell peppers, and greens (from various CSAs and our yard) along with olive oil, eggs, and cheese. And that’s it! It… Read more >

Waldorf wedge

This is not exactly a normal salad, but it also started out as one thing and then it morphed into something else as I was making it… Ok ok ok. Truth be told, I didn’t have a clear vision of what I was making when I started, I just figured I’d find things in the fridge and make it work. I knew I had enough cheese, nuts and whatnot to make a good salad happen, I just hadn’t yet gotten to the editing phase of the process when I started (which is not necessarily unusual… Read more >

Chicken red curry stew

This is going to be short and sweet because I’m waiting for a plumber and trying to get everything squared away for dinner in advance of the mess I’m anticipating will ensue. But first, can I please vent on how annoying it is to be given a five hour window?!? That’s a big a$$ range to plan around. Anyway, I promise to move on now. Let’s get right to the recipe. Chicken red curry stew Ingredients: 1 red onion, minced 1 garlic clove, minced 1/2 tsp salt 2 tbsps olive oil 2 tomatoes, diced 2… Read more >

Breakfast lunch and dinner

I started the day with nourish bread and miyoko’s butter. For lunch I had the leftover Brussels salad from What’s Gabby Cooking. I think the salad was even better the second time around! Probably because the Brussels were even more softened from an extra day of dressing breaking them down. Anyway, I added the toppings – avo, candied nuts, and pecorino romano – and savored every single bite. We ended the day with a simple salmon and broccoli bowl over wild rice. I made the Vietnamese caramel sauce from my Dinner in an Instant cookbook,… Read more >

The never-ending battle

We got back from Tahoe and I haven’t found the time to go shopping because Kyle’s out of town so we are living off the freezer and pantry. It’s fine. I’m fine. We are all fine. Fancy stuff going on over here… Luckily I have alllll of this chocolate (and more!) to keep me fulfilled in a different way. I will make it to the store eventually, but I still have so many old meals to catch up on posting anyway. Like these two meals from Run Fast Cook Fast Eat Slow. First I made… Read more >
