Sometimes dinner ideas come easily, and other times I need a bit of inspiration. Inspiration is exactly what I found when I was browsing Hungry Hungry Hippie and saw this beautiful fall butternut squash salad. She eats a lot of butternut squash salads, but this one really called to me and I knew I was […]
Every day I go through this cycle of racking my brain trying to think about what to make for dinner. I like to cook and I like to follow recipes, but there are so many recipes out there and sometimes I feel like I have so little time that the idea of following a recipe […]
Yummy, but we probably wouldn’t have it again and I’ll tell you why… While I was home, I was all about “doing American things”. I enjoyed big glasses of water in restaurants, going to rest stops on the highway, eating huge portions of food (or…ordering huge portions), drinking craft beers… and last, but not least/ going […]
Good morning friends! I disappeared for much longer than I intended to (actually, I never intend to disappear), but as always- life happens. Side note, but I actually just received the email that it’s time to update my hosting service for this blog and renew it for another 3 years- time flies! Didn’t I just […]
These taco bowls have been a go-to recipe for the last couple of weeks. They came together after making a vegan ‘taco’ mix and then I added all of the other ingredients to make Taco Bowls! The taco mix in this recipe is vegan, but you could use meat if you prefer. Besides the tofu […]

Wow, didn’t mean to fall off the face of the earth for a good two weeks there, but it was nice to take a large step back and just enjoy the time away from school and work and this blog, etc, etc, and do lots of fun things. Luis was able to get off from […]
Looking for a delicious alternative to potato latkes for Hannukah this year? What about corn latkes? I made these for a hannukah party last year and they were a big hit! They came out so well and got rave reviews. Call me crazy, but I’ve never been a huge fan of potato latkes so that’s […]
I honestly can’t believe that this year’s Thanksgiving is already over. There was so much planning and time that went into it and the week leading up to it was a huge whirlwind of pumpkin pies. All of that craziness ended in putting together a dinner for 30 people and now, two days later, and […]
