You’ve probably seen the one pot meals floating around the internet, praised for the simplicity of cooking everything in one pot (even the pasta, gasp!), and touted as being simply delicious. Well, I’ve seen them, and they did seem simple – pasta, tomatoes, and basil – for example. Almost too simple. So I wasn’t really […]
Wow, it’s been a while since I have posted a recpie! I’ve been cooking, I have just been using my free time to play with Wes instead of blogging. The good news is that I have several great recipes to share with you, so I’m going to do my best to get them out there. […]
What can I say about butternut squash? It’s delicious, good for you, inexpensive, and incredibly difficult to cut. I did not discover how much I liked butternut squash until about 4 or 5 years ago. I had no idea what I was missing! Now, every fall I look forward to loading up on them at […]
I know it’s almost spring, so our time for soup is really winding down, but I think this soup recipe is perfect for this time of year. It’s light, brothy, full of flavor, and very refreshing with the hint of lemon and fresh grassy parsley, yet definitely filling enough to be a meal. I […]

This is a recipe I’ve made many times, and it’s definitely a regular in our spring/summer rotation. That’s saying a lot, because generally my philosophy is “So many recipes, so little time.” Tim and I both love this because it’s healthy and full of vegetables. It’s light, very fresh tasting, and perfect for spring! And primavera […]
It’s soup time again! I told you I’ve been obsessed with soup this year. In my previous Salsa Stoup post, I mentioned a soup chock full of vegetables with pesto in it. Well, wait no more. As promised, here is the veggie soup recipe. It’s extremely healthy because it’s basically all veggies with some herbs […]
