After a quick burst of recipes to make in the heat of summer (Portobello Pineapple Burgers and Fresh Veggie Spring Rolls), we had a few days of cold, rainy, blustery weather. When it first started to rain, I opened all the windows to cool down the house and it never really warmed back up. I’m…

Fresh Vegetable Spring Rolls
How’s the weather where you live? Its been a little moody here in Ohio. Just this week there was frost warning at night and a day later the high was 92. In this spring weather, some days are perfect for soup and some are perfect for this spring roll recipe. I hate using the oven…
Portobello Pineapple Teriyaki Burgers
When ever I get hamburger at a restaurant, I always end up getting some sort of pineapple burger. I always tell myself I am going to try something new, but I always end up falling back to my favorite. My mouth is watering as I write this. While I do like a good hamburger at…
Roasted Vegetable Stacked Enchiladas
My sweet 2 month old daughter loves to “help me cook”. In other words, she is content to sit in her bouncy chair in the kitchen and stare at me while I cook. She has just started making spit bubbles. I love to look over at her while I’m cooking and see her smiling face,…
Brown Rice with Creamy Cauliflower Sauce
If I had to pick my favorite dinner, it would be something Italian with a super unhealthy creamy white sauce. Alfredo something or other. Something with lots of butter, cream, and cheese. Sadly if I ate that as much as I wanted (every day) I would probably dead in 5 years. Luckily I have found…
Mediterranean Quinoa Salad
I am so excited! I am so excited about lots of things. For starters, life in general and the new life that’s joined my little family. I am excited that I have finally recovered from having a baby. I am excited for summer. I am excited to start going on walks and jogs. I am…
Tomato and Rice Soup
What do you do when you need to go grocery shopping, but you just don’t want to and all you have in your fridge is a couple carrots, an onion, and a few stalks of celery? I just hate going out and running errands in the cold winter weather. So I knew I would have…
Vegetarian and Sweet Potato Flautas
It’s the fifth day of a new year. How’s everyone doing with their resolutions? I really didn’t stress much about making resolutions this year. My goals are pretty simple and after a few spiritual goals, my resolutions consist of 1) have a baby 2) learn how to sew 3) meet my Goodreads goal of reading…
Spaghetti Squash Casserole
I love this casserole! It’s really easy and the Italian flavors really perk up the squash. I will usually tolerate winter squash, but this in this meal I forget that I don’t really like squash. It reminds me of a yummy baked pasta casserole. Just make sure you plan enough time to roast the squash…
Mushroom and Spinach Enchiladas
It’s bad, people. I’m to that point in my pregnancy where my mind wants to nest and get ready for the baby, but my body wants to sit at the computer in my PJ’s all day. I actually want to go on a walk right now, but the only place I want to go is…
