What do you call cheese that’s not yours?

Nacho cheese!  <— cringe   Last week I decided it wasn’t worth it to make bagels from scratch.  Buying them is fine by me.  Tortilla chips, on the other hand, are now going in the “home-made” column.    Easy – yes.  Delicious – yes.  Cheap – yes.  I’m not joking, this was probably the most simple and tasty thing I’ve “made” in a while. Did I mention how cheap they were?   A bag of 100 corn tortillas from Costco set me back a whole $2.99.  They are made by Guerrero, and when I researched… Read more >

Moon Landing

I made his and hers cookies for dessert the other night.  It was 9 pm and we wanted dessert, but the only thing that we Kyle felt like was warm cookies.   It wasn’t in my vows, but cookie bitch is definitely one of my wifely duties.   You know that scene in Modern Family when Jay and Cam are in the men’s locker room together… That’s what I thought of once I pulled these cookies out of the oven.  Peanut butter moon landing!

Hold me over oatmeal

  This bowl you see here?  It was something special.  I am determined to figure out the exact caloric and macronutrient breakdown because it kept me full for HOURS without weighing me down at all.  I finished it and felt both light as a feather and completely satisfied.  That’s a hard line to walk.  So what was in it? 1 cup dry whole rolled oats 2 cups water 1/4 avocado 1 tbsp nutritional yeast 2 fried eggs   I never wait for the water to boil before adding oats, I just throw them in at… Read more >

I was tagged to do a fun little… Read more >

From Gwyneth Paltrow’s bestie

My sister really likes food.  She also really likes celebrities.  She has been known to say “I feel like we could be best friends” about several A-listers (and some B-listers too).  But I won’t tease her too much because she’s moving to another country soon and I’m afraid if I’m not nice to her she’ll never come back.   Posting this photo isn’t a great start. Anyway.  Every time we talk she is raving about a new recipe from Gwyneth Paltrow, so I told her to send me a guest post.  And she delivered.  Take… Read more >
