Recently, as the temperatures here approached highs of 2 degrees Fahrenheit, our furnace stopped working! It was something we had all been “bracing” for, as it was older than me. But the timing really was comical. Thankfully, the replacement was installed the next day. And thank you to my landlord parents for shelling out for…
Mushroom and Leek Galette
When I had pie crust leftover this summer, I made this Rustic Tomato Tarte. So naturally when I had pie crust leftover from my Thanksgiving Apple Pie, I wanted to make another savory dish, but this time with fall flavors. For Thanksgiving, I also made this Winter Vegetable Crumble from Joy the Baker that never…
Calabrian Vodka Sauce
I only just recently discovered Calabrian peppers, when I was recreating an egg salad recipe from a deli here in the Twin Cities. Now, I feel like I see them everywhere, including in the aisles of Target. When I saw this Creamy Calabrian Vodka Sauce at Target the other day, I figured I just had…
One-Pot Orzo and Chicken Meatballs
In addition to being “one-pot,” this meal also only takes about 30 minutes to make. And I was sat on the couch with a dog on my lap for half of that. But saying “30 minute one pot meal!” in the title of this post made it feel a bit too crammed with buzzwords! I…
Creamy Sausage and Veggie Pasta with Scissor-Cut Noodles
This was one of the first proper meals I cooked in the new house after moving to Minnesota! I made it in a half-setup, half-unpacked kitchen, and enjoyed at a kitchen table in a room that didn’t have a ton of other furniture. It may have even been the meal made to celebrate having a…
Green Goddess Sandwich
I recounted the tale of my carrot addiction in a post recently. It was at its peak when Molly was living at home after college. And during that year, she made a green goddess dressing a lot. It was the first time I ever had it, and it was great for dipping carrots in. I…
Tomato Mascarpone Pasta
When I order pasta, or plan a pasta meal, I *rarely* go for a tomato sauce. Occasionally, I’ll go for a Bolognese. But usually, it’s pesto or carbonara for me. Plain old tomato sauce? Forget about it. Boooring. However! I decided to give a tomato sauce a whirl, because the thought of having a notably…
Hot Honey Chicken Bowl (from Sweetgreen)
The proliferation of fast casual restaurants that make salads and bowls needs to be studied. They all have a name that sounds as if it was generated by the same focus group: Crisp and Green. Green and the Grain. Sweetgreen. Tender Greens. Chopt. Mixt… It makes your head spin. The amount of times I’ve mixed…
