Looking for something to make for dinner? Or just as a side? Look no further for inspiration.
Many times I’m looking for something to make for breakfast or as a side for dinner or as a main course. I don’t necessarily know what I want to make. But I know that I want something in that general category!
This section is for when you just need a inspiration for a category of meal.
I bought an absolutely massive fillet of salmon today. I went to Costco because I needed gas and I had to make the trip worth it somehow. So, an absolute fortune in salmon later because… Costco! I had to figure out what to do. I’ve […]
I acquired a barbecue the other day. Which is really just code word for someone left a perfectly functional grill on the side of the road and I am from Portland, where picking up orphaned furniture is practically a past time. So now, of course, […]
I am trying to step up my bread game. Now, I’m by no means a master bread maker. To date, this Dutch Oven bread recipe is the only bread that I have been able to consistently make successfully more than once! But we all know […]

Ahh leftover season. Turning absolutely everything in my refrigerator into a burrito is one of my favorite thins to do. It’s a quick and easy way to make what you already have on hand into a new and fun dish. Burritos work with so many […]
I’ve really been in a fish mode lately. Maybe it’s because we’re in the peak of summer. Maybe because seafood has been on a good sale streak as of late. Maybe because I’m just craving a little taste of home by the sea. But every […]
This week I have made Slow Cooker Pinto Beans w/ Bay Leaves & Lime, Vermicelli Salad w/ Cucumber & Tofu, and Avocado Dip w/ Greek Yogurt, Walnuts, & Lime. Now, these may all seem like disparate dishes from around the globe. After all, pinto beans […]
When I find myself unsure of what to make for the day, I often just go to the grocery store and peruse the aisles until something sparks my interest. Now, it’s not necessarily the best idea to go shopping while hungry! Especially if you may […]
