This snow pea fried rice recipe is simply a classic fried rice recipe which swaps fresh snow peas for frozen green peas. Nutritionally, they are the same, but when you have garden fresh snow peas why use frozen?
Snow peas have a tender pod and are often times used in stir fries because they cook quickly. They fit seamlessly into a fried rice recipe as well, perfect for late spring and early summer when snow peas are ripe and bountiful. Continue reading

I have another asparagus recipe for you this week! This time, I made a quick and easy lunch, asparagus and pesto baked eggs. I used sundried tomato pesto, and it was stunning in this dish!
First, many asparagus baked eggs do not use pesto. I used it because I wanted an extra pop of flavor. If you don’t have any, this dish will still be tasty, just not as complex. Continue reading

Friends, it has been a busy fall as usual (busy but good), and I have not been posting as often as I like to. Today I have a great fall recipe for you to try, purple sweet potato and kale mini crustless quiches, and there will be many more recipes coming once winter break has started!
So, more about quiches!

Who else thinks that pasta is comfort food? I can eat pasta all day, and this miso butternut squash and spinach spaghetti pie hits the top of the list! Why? This recipe has a few things that other pasta bakes do not.
A spaghetti pie is unique because it is bound together by egg, just enough that the strands stick together making cutable wedges. Most bakes fall part upon serving, or have loads of cheese holding them together. Continue reading

I have long read about savory oats, but it took me a long time to try them. I was going through all the grains stashed in the back of the pantry, deciding what needed to be used first. The steel cut oats were on the top of the list, and thus I made savory fajita steel cut oats!
The steel cut oats have a creamy texture in comparison to making a grain bowl with rice or quinoa. Think of it like a polenta bowl instead, but made with wholesome oats. Continue reading

My husband has said hands down, this soft zucchini taco shells recipe is his favorite way to enjoy the gluttony of zucchini that has come out of our garden this summer. It might be a good way to sneak some veggies in for picky eaters too!
What make this recipe a taco shell and not just a tortilla? Masa harina is the flour used to make corn tortillas, the base for most authentic tacos. I use it here to give these tortillas the flavor of a corn tortilla, and help bind the zucchini together. Continue reading
