Noodles with the works

  This is the easiest meal of all.  I make it at least once a week.  It’s flexible depending on what you have on hand, but as long as you have some kind of past in your pantry and some kind of fresh/frozen veggies, you’re set. Boil water.  Cook pasta.  Drain pasta, saving a little of the water.  Add olive oil (a few [or more] glugs).  Add fresh/frozen veggies.  Toss into the pasta and let them cook.  If you add tomatoes, wait until they pop.  Add herbs (optional but recommended) like basil, parsley, etc.  Add… Read more >

Two ingredient pancakes

I got a few questions about the two ingredient pancakes I showed last week, so I thought I’d just answer them in one place.   I’m definitely not the creator of this “recipe” (if you can call it that?).  I don’t know where it originated exactly.  To be honest, knowing it was made of just bananas and eggs, I was skeptical that it would (a) turn out & (b) taste good.

Mis-schedule

I’ve been very uninspired lately.  In the kitchen, in my day-to-day routine, in lots of ways…I just feel like I’m tired and bored all the time.  It’s weird.  My days off are so lazy.  I read, I draw, I read some more.  But I miss my desire to be in the kitchen.  I don’t know where it’s gone.  Thinking of dinner ideas is hard for some reason.  And it’s never been like that before.  I ask Kyle to suggest things since I seem incapable of coming up with anything other than eggs and toast and… Read more >
