I have been making a bunch of rice lately. But fall is in the air. The leaves are changing. It’s been raining.. And I am breaking out the skeleton bones, ghosts, and ghouls. But I also have the last of my peppers still ripening! And […]
I have been craving peanut butter lately. I can’t exactly explain it. Maybe it’s the crummy weather and needing a comfort food. Maybe it’s the rapid 30 degree shifts in temperature overnight. Or maybe it’s just stress eating! Because life also happens. But all that […]
I adore making crustless quiche. Especially in the fall and winter when the last of the fresh produce is in season, the rain is beginning to set in, and you just need something warm and cosy to bite into! But, as much as I like […]

This is a surprisingly classic burrito for me. I’m quite often throwing everything plus the kitchen sink into a burrito. But squash, rice, avocados, and enchilada sauce? That is pretty tame for me! It might be Calabaza Squash Infused Rice w/ Homegrown Anaheim Peppers, Avocado […]
I made Brown Rice w/ Ambercup Squash & Red Chilis the other day. It was one of those recipes that was absolutely delicious and a game changer for my seasonal rice recipes! I tend to do this. I tend to make different types of rice, […]
