Apple Pumpkin Oatmeal

In the world of blogging, one thing you need to do is find at least one good person to collaborate with. It’s beneficial to everyone involved. Ideas are crafted. Bonds are formed. Comfort levels are expanded. Traffic is increased and analytics become more interesting! (Sorry, I work in data outside of this food blog. Ha! Numbers occasionally make me geek out. 😉 ) For many years, I’ve been…

Slow Cooker Brown Bread Rolls

Slow Cooker Brown Bread Rolls

‘Tis the season for the slow cooker to make its annual trip from the lower cabinet near my sink to its rightful place upon my already cramped breakfast bar. (Typical Manhattan Apartment Life, yo.) I know most people will use their slow cooker year round, but I’m strictly an autumn and winter user. It’s just how I roll. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I’ve been searching the World Wide Interwebz for new and unique ways…

Pumpkin Apple Galette

It is the The Battle of the Basic Autumn Foods: Pumpkin vs. Apple! Pumpkin and pumpkin spice are both omnipresent in so many food items and non-food items, for better or for worst! (A friend of mine posted a photo of Pumpkin Spice-scented car detail spray on her Snapchat a few weeks ago, and it made me irrationally angry…) Of course, there is the most basic of pumpkin-associated culinary…

Butternut Squash Soup with Roasted Kale

Butternut Squash Soup with Roasted Kale

Autumn just came out of nowhere, both chronologically and atmospherically. I swear, it was May just a minute ago, and social media reminded me that this past Thursday, at 10:21 a.m., was the autumnal equinox. Two, I was walking around the Feast of San Gennaro in Little Italy on Thursday night, sweating in a pair of shorts at 8 p.m., enjoying the extension of summer weather. Less than 48 hours…

Cucumber Salad with Garlic-Dill Yogurt Sauce

Cucumber Salad with Garlic-Dill Yogurt Sauce

Everyone has a different idea of what “comfort food” is. While the concept of a meal that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside is universal, one person’s mac and cheese may not be another person’s chicken noodle soup. I can definitely boast a few different comfort foods of mine, and they tend to be seasonal. Mac and cheese tends to transcend seasons, while homemade apple pie makes me feel…

Milk Chocolate Cake with Chocolate-Caramel Frosting

Let us throw back to last weekend, once again, as I was home in Connecticut to celebrate Father’s Day with the world’s most chocolate-loving pa. How could I not make a chocolate cake for my father, a man that I have seen making pudding or brownie at midnight simply to satisfy cravings over the years? I love this cake because it has a unique texture. There are so many words I could use, but these…

Curried Whole Roasted Cauliflower

Curried Whole Roasted Cauliflower

Easter is getting closer, I’m prepping my menu more by more, and I’m realizing that I may have a vegan or two to feed that afternoon. I had already planned on making a slew of roasted vegetables for the meal, but I’m trying to figure out a way to make one of the vegetables a main dish, rather than just a side. Hmmmm… There is something very fun about slathering oil and spices onto an entire…

Creamy Avocado Pasta

Here I am, back on my avocado grind… I spent the earlier part of this afternoon curled on my couch, a Word document splashed across my computer screen boasting my Easter menu for next Sunday. In addition, I’ve been toying around with some dessert ideas as well as some vegan side dishes. I was about five minutes away from taking an entire head of cauliflower, rubbing it with coconut oil and green…

Savory Oatmeal with Spinach & Fried Garlic

Savory Oatmeal with Spinach & Fried Garlic

When a person is used to doing things in a certain way, it can be exceedingly hard to look at them in a different light. It may not be due to stubbornness, but more due to being stuck in a routine, to being conditioned. Growing up, my oats were always served sweet. Maple syrup, sugar, fruits, you name it. The closest it got to savory was adding in a small pat of salted butter to melt across the…

Roasted Cauliflower Brie Soup

Roasted Cauliflower Brie Soup

There is little in this world I love more than cheese. It is the singular reason I will never become vegan. I could give up every other animal product in the world, but I need Cabot to survive. If you were to come into my apartment right now and look in my fridge, you’d see block after half-eaten block of cheddar cheese, in various stages of consumption. I’m positive that I go through cheese…

Orange Ginger Scones

I’m trying to recall why I was ever intimidated by making scones. For years, I was. I’m racking my brain, trying to figure out that exact rationale; on the whole, I just recall being told that they are easy to mess up. There is a fine line between making a batch that is moist enough but not too dry, as the hallmark of a good scone is a slight crumble. For Christmas 2014, I took a leap of faith…
