Eating Fast but not Fast Food

April 19, 2011

We’ve been insanely busy the past two weeks so we’ve been eating a lot of quick dinners. Morningstar “Chik” Patties and homemade baked spicy fries are a go-to staple for us. I like my fries super skinny and “McDonald’s-style,” how about you? Picked up this awesome new bowl on Amazon. We’d been using an ancient [...]

Baked Falafel and Mujadarra

February 25, 2011

It’s official. My Greek yogurt obsession is out of control. It’s become almost a game. “Can I put Greek yogurt in this?” The latest challenge was born out of Neil’s insistence that I find a use for the two black bananas in our freezer.

Because Beer + Bread = Awesome, No-Knead Crusty Pale Ale Bread

February 23, 2011

It was only a matter of time before beer found it’s way into the mix of my bread making obsession (evidence here, here and here). And this weekend I just happened to have one lonely Sierra Nevada Pale left that begged to be used for a loaf of crusty pot bread. Well it didn’t beg, [...]
