Baked Buffalo Cauliflower Bites

I’m not the biggest cauliflower fan, but I recently got a head in my Imperfect Foods box. I don’t hate it, but it’s not something I’ll go out of my way for. Unless it’s coated in hot sauce, like this recipe for baked buffalo cauliflower bites. Truth is, I’ve never had anything coated in hot [...]

Roasted Garlic Lemon Yogurt Dip

I like versatile sauces and dips that you can use on just about anything. Bonus points if they’re super easy to make, and seem a little fancy. Roasted garlic achieves that well, as you’ll see with this simple roasted garlic dip flavored with lemon. It starts with a head of garlic that you drizzle with [...]

Quinoa and Kale Stuffed Squash

For a vegetarian, the holidays aren’t always easy. I mean, sure, sides are good. Who doesn’t love mac n cheese or dinner rolls? But you need more than just starchy sides. Right….right?!? I mean, okay, maybe not. But maybe yes. This stuffed acorn squash comes to the rescue. It’s easy, impressive, and seasonally appropriate. It’s [...]

Best Oven Baked Fries

Oven baked fries are a tough one. I’ve made them lots of times, because fries are a satisfying side dish and sometimes you just don’t want to (or these days, can’t) go out to get them. And deep frying in the house is rarely a thing that’s worth the trouble. So I’ve been trying to perfect [...]

Creamy Potato Leek Soup

Some days are just cold and windy, and you don’t want to do anything but curl up on the couch with comfort food. Especially when you look out the front window and see snow flurries. While there are lots of options for comfort food, my favorite when the weather is crisp and blustery is soup. [...]

Low and Slow Sweet Potatoes

Thanksgiving is going to look different for a lot of people this year, at least for me. No big gatherings, which means no marshmallow topped sweet casseroles that feed a dozen people. I mean, I know I could still make one, but is it as enjoyable when you’re still eating it a week later? Doubtful. [...]

Cheddar Cornmeal Pancakes

Given the choice between pancakes and waffles, I will almost always choose waffles. In fact, these cheddar cornmeal pancakes were originally headed in that direction until I realized my waffle maker is broken and I need a new one. So pancakes they are. These are pretty easy to whip up, and make a quick and [...]

Black Pepper Cheddar Bread

Many of the things I eat are just variations on bread and cheese. So it should come as a surprise to no one that a no knead cheddar bread has become my new favorite thing. I decided to add pepper to this bread because whenever I eat anything with cheddar, I tend to douse it [...]

Tomato Basil Cheese Sauce

This is one of my favorite things to make at the end of the summer when there are still tons of tomatoes, but you’re tired of salads. It’s super easy because it requires no cooking, but is still creamy and cheesy, and you can use it in a lot of different ways. There are just [...]

Charred Scallion Salt

I spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Mostly cooking everyday things like tacos or mac n cheese, but occasionally an experiment comes along, like this charred scallion salt. This recipe is not a quick one, as it will take a whole day, but the results are a beautifully mellow, toasty, onion salt that [...]
