Mac n’ cheese is one of my top comfort foods and it’s something that pretty much always sounds appealing. Whether it’s homemade or a box of Annie’s, I don’t discriminate. I love it all. I think some people get intimidated by homemade mac n’ cheese because of the roux, but it’s really quite simple. I do recommend that you buy blocks of cheese and shred … Continue reading Secret Ingredient Mac n’ Cheese
I may have just made a perfect meal. Possibly my new favorite meal?! And it’s vegetarian. Guys, this is a big deal. I cook a lot and there aren’t a lot of meals that I cook repeatedly. Mostly because I prefer to make new things so something has to be really freaking good to become a staple. I think this is staple worthy. Andrew agrees. … Continue reading Dinner for two: Crispy Black Bean Tacos, Spicy Margs + Dessert
TOMATO. BACON. JAM. Whoever first thought that was a good idea was a genius because it’s delicious. JAM packed with flavor, if you will. Sweet and savory, utter perfection. Slow cooked, it takes on a bit of a BBQ flavor profile. I have a hunch it would be good on just about anything, even a lonely spoon (Andrew and I can confirm). We did manage … Continue reading Tomato Bacon Jam Breakfast Sandwich
In the spirit of Sam Sifton of The New York Times Cooking, here’s a non-recipe recipe to inspire a quick dinner this week. Think crispy, chewy gnocchi paired with sun dried tomatoes and perfectly wilted spinach although, truth be told, I’ll probably skip the sun dried tomatoes in the remake. The dish pairs well with simple roasted broccoli making for a complete vegetarian meal that … Continue reading Crispy Gnocchi with Sun Dried Tomatoes & Spinach
One of my favorite things to eat in college was grilled ham and cheese sandwiches from the student union. With a packed schedule, I often didn’t have time for a sit down meal in one of the dining halls, but I could get a fresh, made-to-order grilled ham and cheese on the run between work and night class. It always hit the right note of … Continue reading The Count of Monte Cristo – Sandwich Edition
I don’t know about you, but a bowl of noodles is the peak of comfort food for me. I love pasta in general, but noodles are in a category of their own. I’m a big fan of ramen, but I’ve recently been introduced to Chinese Yang Chun Noodles. They take a bit longer to cook, but are more substantial and truly a delight to eat. … Continue reading Garlic Noodles + Ginger Lime Shrimp
If you want your home to smell amazing, bake some bread. It’s tough to beat the yeasty aroma, unless you happen to follow it up with cooking some bacon which is what I did yesterday. To break in the KitchenAid Mixer that my boyfriend surprised me with (I know, I’m the luckiest :)), I decided to make french bread for BLTs. Or BLTCs, as we … Continue reading Homemade French Bread BLTs
There is nothing worse than a sad salad. Perhaps that’s a bit hyperbolic, but have you ever eaten a salad where the lettuce is wilted and starting to take a turn for the worse, there are meager add-ins, and it’s soaked in flavorless, extra oily dressing? I mean, it makes me sad just thinking about it. We deserve better than that. I’m a big believer … Continue reading Make Salad Great Again
