I realize this looks like kinda a mess…buuuuut… What can I say? Do you eat with your eyes? No. I created this dish because I had squash for days and thought it would be a good idea to cook some bulk freezer meals so I have healthy home-made stuff on hand. Hello layerzzz. I ended up using 3 summer squash and 4 tomatoes, but you could really use whatever you have on hand…eggplant, zucchini, etc. The top is a corn meal crust, which I probably should have cooked a bit first because it ended up… 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 >

I rarely keep more than one dessert in the house because…well…because it’s dangerous. Ok, I ALWAYS have dark chocolate, but that doesn’t count because that’s just common sense a pantry staple. Anyway, despite the fact that I still had a slice of GF vegan chocolate cake left from our weekend in SF, I was in the mood to make some cookies yesterday. For Kyle (that’s what I told myself). Because he could use a little fattening up. Of course my baked treats are usually on the healthier end of the spectrum, so fattening… Read more >

I’m not sure anyone will want to replicate this dish, but here’s what I did, in case you want to tweak it to improve upon it. For the record, I usually don’t post iffy recipes, but this was still yummy, so I’m doing it anyway. Just note the errors I made along the way and how you can possibly prevent them. Starting with the crust. Are you kidding me Immaculate Baking Co?? I followed the directions for using their pie crusts to a “t” and as you can see from the above, I… Read more >
