IntI spent all of last year making enchilada sauce! And I have finally gotten to the point where my peppers and tomatoes are ripening. Wisconsin had a horrendous spring this year with snow in April and frost well into May! So, all of the slow […]
I almost never make rice in my rice cooker. Ironically enough, quinoa and lentils cook up much better and are far easier meals to toss together. Rice often ends up too thick or thin, too moist or dry, and just relatively unpleasant. Part of the […]
I adore macaroni and cheese. It’s simple enough to make from scratch and I absolutely make it far more than I probably should! But sometimes you do just want to consume your body weight in cheese and pasta. My biggest problem with this is that […]
I roasted an Ambercup Squash the other day. It’s an incredibly rich and flavorful winter squash that vaguely resembles a more intense version of butternut squash. And, while I didn’t originally intend to make squash macaroni and cheese out of this? It is always a delicious way […]
I am a huge fan of making avocado dip. Over the last couple of weeks or maybe even months at this point, I’ve made it almost a dozen times! So, I’ve been making a big potluck batch. What I ordinarily do is just double my […]

Fall is in the air. It’s back-to-school time for little children. And my YouTube feed has started recommending Hocus Pocus-themed videos. Ahhh but it is only mid-August, 90 degrees out, and my local Costco has begun with their Christmas displays. Which makes me culinarily confused. […]
I’m in a nacho mood lately. I’ve been making a lot of Macaroni & Cheese lately and really just am intensely craving cheese! It’s really a comfort food. If anything is tiring or stressful or unexpected in my life, all I want is cheese. And […]
I like this daikon burrito as is. With just daikon quinoa wrapped in a tortilla shell? It’s a perfectly acceptable burrito! I have made several variations of tamari, tahini, and rice vinegar quinoa that I have turned into burrito form. I will link to several […]
I was perusing the grocery store this morning. Not my local grocery store, but my favorite out of the way grocery store with the best unusual produce. Now, daikon isn’t the most out there of ingredients! But I do live in rural Wisconsin and my […]
