Our country and world are in a bit of a crisis mode right now, and because I don’t have useful skills as a healthcare professional, mask seamstress, or 3d-printed ventilator expert, I decided to use my practical cooking skills to help people the best way I know how: with food. I’ve compiled a collection of…… Continue reading Pantry Recipe Ideas for Eating Well During a Pandemic

Joy Bauer’s Pumpkin Pancakes
Autumn is finally here, and with the changing of the leaves, so changes my diet to include more pumpkin. It’s practically a requirement, am I right? Really, pumpkin is an extremely healthy ingredient (rich in the anti-oxidant beta carotene) that could (and should!) be used year-round. There is just something about this time of year,…… Continue reading Joy Bauer’s Pumpkin Pancakes

Watermelon Agua Fresca
This drink is the embodiment of summer! My original plan was to get the recipe up before July 4, but *coughs* I’m not sure what happened. I’ll go ahead and blame it on Congress.

Spring Pasta with Baby Spinach, Tomatoes, and Ricotta Cheese
To me, this pasta dish announced the arrival of spring. Never-mind the fact that it’s snowing outside right now, on April 1. That’s beside the point. I originally saw this recipe for Papardelle with Baby Spinach, Herbs, and Ricotta featured on the April cover of Cooking Light, and was super excited to try it.…… Continue reading Spring Pasta with Baby Spinach, Tomatoes, and Ricotta Cheese
Pizza Margherita
I made this pizza a while back when I had a severe pizza craving, but didn’t want to give in to the grease of Domino’s. I’m not saying that this pizza is particularly healthy or diet food, with all of that mozzarella… but it’s better for you than delivery, tastes better, and is ridiculously easy…… Continue reading Pizza Margherita
Chick Peas and Greens Salad
First of all, hooray, I’m not dead! I apologize profusely for the lack of January (and now, at the time of finishing this, February and most of March) posts. I just realized that I could not stay away from this wonderful world of food blogging. I’m finally adjusting to the new job, though. I’m coherent…… Continue reading Chick Peas and Greens Salad
