Earlier this week I shared a recipe for Roasted Root Vegetables with Parmesan Wheat Berries. We loved this combo of veggies with creamy cheese and nutty wheat so much that I found another way to enjoy those flavors. These pockets are stuffed with lots of veggies, given a good smear of goat cheese, and topped with mustard-y glaze! Continue reading

Roasted root vegetables are a wonderful staple of the season. Enjoy as many root vegetables as you can now, because soon spring and summer produce will be back. I added one vegetable to this mix that is not a root vegetable: Brussels sprouts! It is also a seasonal veggie, that grows best in colder temperatures, and I couldn’t make this dish without something green! Continue reading

When I first came across the idea of peanut stew, I did not like the sounds of it. Peanuts will get soggy when they’re stewed, and that texture might be weird. They are great made into butter, however. The creamy butter from the peanuts is the star in this dish, not stewed peanuts. Don’t be afraid! Continue reading

Every time I am in the store and see all the pre-made packages of food, I say to myself, I can make that! No package necessary. This was my inspiration to make sloppy joes. I did not grow up eating sloppy joes, probably because I was too picky of an eater as a kid! Someone should have told me how fun they are to eat! Continue reading

Spicy buffalo sauce is one of my favorite flavors. I mentioned this in my post for Buffalo Queso Dip.

Or on this appetizer, Beer Battered Buffalo Cauliflower! Continue reading
Tacos are considered a kings food in my house. Tostadas are flat tacos, right? Well, not really. Tostada means “toasted.” It’s kind-of hard to toast a taco because all the ingredients are wrapped up inside it’s crunchy shell (or soft shell depending on your preference). Tostadas and tacos have very similar (if not the same) ingredients, therefore, we are making room for toasty tostadas at the king’s table! Especially these avocado tostadas!

The farmer’s market here is finally over. Finally seams inappropriate because I will miss it so greatly until April rolls around. Saturday mornings in the spring are like Christmas for me. What surprises will there be? What will I not be able to go home without after its first appearance at the market? For this soup, I let the lingering fall produce make my selections. Bok choy was only $1.00! I coudn’t leave it behind, and hence this soup was born.
