Thanksgiving is tomorrow and I know you probably have your menus all planned out already. But just in case you are still looking for ideas, I thought I’d post a quick recipe for my favorite way to make mashed potatoes. I basically just make mashed potatoes and add a whole head of cauliflower to the…

Vegetarian Thanksgiving: Buttercup Squash Pie
When I heard that my favorite ice cream shop, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream had a new buttercup squash flavor for fall, I knew right away that I had to find myself a buttercup squash and make something out of it. I had never heard of buttercup squash before this year, but everything about it…
Kale Pesto
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! After eating way to much and a few days of left over pie for breakfast, I’m ready to get back to some healthy food! At least for a short time before Christmas goodies become too abundant. I am a huge fan of pesto sauce. All summer long,…
Pumpkin Bread French Toast
The other day, my husband and I were looking for a place to go out to eat. We are really indecisive about restaurants. I think we had already spent 30 minutes looking through online menus. I don’t remember where we went or what we got (must not have been that great), but I remember seeing…
Savory Roasted Pumpkin Soup with Mushrooms
Did you all see my Italian Stuffed Acorn Squash recipe a few posts ago? Do you remember how I talked about always having a random squash or gourd of some sort sitting on my counter in the fall and never getting around to baking it? Well, folks, the problem has escalated! I thought I was…
Pink Applesauce (Small Batch)
A few days ago I went apple picking with my husband and daughter and it was magical. We ate straight from the tree until we were sick and went home with a big bag of the most beautiful, delicious Suncrisp apples. They are the best apples I have ever eaten. We decided right away that…
Italian Stuffed Acorn Squash
Every fall I always end up with an assortment of random squash and gourds sitting on my counter top that I did not buy. Please tell me I’m not the only one who goes through this squash dilemma every fall. Half the time some one gives them to us because they are sick of them…
Grilled or Roasted Cauliflower Steak Burgers with Chimichurri Sauce
Happy Fall everyone! I feel like Fall snuck up on me. I am still having a hard time relinquishing summer. Where I live, the fall nip in the air has started making its presence known, but there are still quite a few hot days that feel like summer again. Some days all I want is…
Ben Patch’s Fresh Peach Pie with Cream Cheese Filling and Fresh Berries
Is there anything better than fresh peaches? I’m not sure. This pie recipe was given to me by Ben Patch. Do you know who he is? He is college Volley Ball player for BYU and he is really good. And he is really really tall. 6’8” people! He is full of energy and personality and…
Crockpot Red Thai Veggie Curry
Mmmmm…Thai curry. Somebody please make me stop eating these Thai Lime & Chili Almonds from Trader Joe’s. I just ate one of the little dried chili’s and my mouth feels like hot lava. And I’m too lazy to go upstairs to get a drink, so I just keep eating them! I am a huge sucker…
