A few months ago I received Eat Vegan On $4 A Day by Ellen Jaffe Jones to review. I was excited to read it because I have been trying to get back to better eating habits and we are on an incredibly tight budget. Win-win. I opened the package right away and thumbed through it. […]
Eat Vegan On $4 A Day: Peanut Butter Smoothie
Smoothies have become my breakfast of choice most days. I have been so busy with various things that drinking my breakfast while I’m working has been a wonderful solution. If I don’t start the day out with a good breakfast, it’s almost certain the day won’t go as well. See? Your mom was right! This […]
Items of Interest.
Is it really October 19th?! Where is October going? I’ve been super busy with work and kids and other things. So I haven’t been over here much. This is what I’ve been up to while I’ve been away from you, Dear Readers. (I miss you!) *Watching the mountains turn gorgeous shades of orange, red, and […]
Make and Takes: Salad Nicoise
I have been soooo busy the last few weeks. I apologize, but I am yet again directing you elsewhere for a recipe. Hopefully things will slow down a little and I’ll be back with more consistent posts. Salad Nicoise? Do you want some? I think it’s the perfect end-of-summer salad, considering we are now officially […]
Make and Takes: Fresh Peach Ice Cream
I’m over at Make and Takes today with my new favorite peach ice cream recipe. Head on over. :)
Cream of Fennel and Zucchini Soup with Fennel Pollen
Fennel became one of my favorite vegetables a few years ago. We like to buy a bulb or two every so often as a special treat. It’s not always easy to find at the grocery stores here in Utah like it was when we lived in New York. Sadly, all the fennel I planted drowned […]
Peach Lavender Fool
As soon as peach season ends, I’m eagerly awaiting its return. Peach season is my very favorite time of year. Two weeks ago the first freshly picked peaches from my favorite local stand, Allred Orchards, became available. (Believe me when I say that my eyes filled with tears as I turned into the parking […]
Sourdough-Sour Cherry Bread Pudding with Cherry Sauce
It’s summer and I don’t usually make bread pudding in the summertime. I save it for those chilly nights when we bump up the thermostat and pull our sweats on, and snuggle up with a good BBC show. But thinking about that makes me hot and want to jump up and turn my a/c on […]
Vinto Pizzeria
I Ever since I first read about Vinto Pizzeria early last year, I have been wanting to try it. We live about an hour away from Downtown Salt Lake City, so it hadn’t happened until last week Becky, also know as The Vintage Mixer or @slcfoodie on Twitter, put together a dinner for some of […]
Fast Chicken Enchiladas with Green Sauce
A friend in need is a friend indeed. And sometimes you have friends who need a good meal brought to them. Furthermore, if you bring these enchiladas to a friend in need, they will be your friend indeed. These are pretty special. (Come closer–they are super easy to make. Don’t tell though. Tell everyone you […]
