I do not claim to be a full-blooded vegetarian. But Cobalt and I do eat a lot of meatless meals for the following reasons: Omitting meat is more affordable. Vegetables and fruits have the best balance of nutrients a human needs: carbs, protein, fat, vitamins, minerals and fiber. The right combination of vegetables and fruits […]
Well, hello again! Apparently it’s been four months since I last wrote – little did I know that my summer job would take up so much of my time and that my habitual photography whilst cooking would dwindle! Needless to say, I am back! It will take a bit of time to readjust to documenting […]
Happy Thursday! What a great week it has been! My dear sister flew out to visit for the last week. Since she’s never been to Cali before so we spent nearly every day out and about, site-seeing Los Angeles. For the first few days, I showed her all of my favorite beaches: Santa Monica Pier, […]
I have a lot of trouble eating vegetables. I know, I know. I have a Dietetics degree, so I should like vegetables, right? They’re all full of vitamins and minerals and yada, yada. Everyone knows that. But unless they’re cooked a certain way, I avoid vegetables like the plague. Personally, I have no idea how […]
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday season. Cobalt and I didn’t visit our families on the East Coast this year but instead enjoyed quality time together at our new home in Los Angeles. We watched a lot of movies, enjoyed walks around our neighborhood, decorated Ginger Bread Houses (Cobalt […]
I love one pot meals. And I love Mac & Cheese. This super simple recipe for cheesy pasta with kale is SO delicious and a much healthier alternative than the artificially flavored, chemically colored box of neon orange mac ‘n’ cheese. It’s just as easy to make, too! You only have to clean one pot […]
What do you think of when you hear the word pizza? I bet a lot of you think of it as party food or junk food. Well…let’s sit back a minute and think about this: If the ingredients of a pizza are bread dough, tomato sauce, cheese, vegetables, and meats–all of which are in many […]
Recently, I’ve added a new hobby to my life: Teaching Cooking Classes. I meet a friend once a week or so to teach her some simple recipes and techniques that she can take with her for the rest of her life. So far we’ve learned knife skills (though I will say that I’m not the best […]
What a beautiful summer it has been here in Chattanooga! It’s been hot all right (as I sit here typing this post, in my house with a fan blowing on me and wearing a tank top, I’m still sweating) but beautiful nonetheless. We’ve had a perfect amount of rain and sun mix; and for the […]
“Meat & threes.” You gotta love ‘em. Protein, starch, vegetable (and/or fruit) and bread — it’s all there, perfectly blanketing the plate with colors, nutrition and deliciousness. I don’t often cook meat and threes. Mostly because it’s a lot of work to make for only two people (Hubs and I). I usually make a meat/protein and one. Tuna […]
