Last week, I was trying to use up things from my freezer. So I made some homemade tomato sauce and fresh meatballs. I served this with pasta but ended up having quite a few leftovers. So I decided that an easy meal from the leftovers would be meatball sandwiches. I reheated the sauce and added […]

The last two weeks my CSA box has had lots of spring onions in it. I use some of these in my stir fried or quiche but I was still left with quite a few that I needed to use. I thought that made I should make an onion cheese bread with them. Given that […]

Kale is one of those things that I get a lots in my winter and spring CSA boxes. My husband despises it and I don’t have a Vitamix blender so I can’t just make it into juice and smoothies. As a result I’m always trying to find things to make with it. This week I’ve […]

Sweet potatoes are something that I get on a regular basis on in our CSA box. So, I’m always trying to figure out ways to use them. Waffles are a something we regularly make for breakfast on the weekend. So I wondered if it would be possible to make sweet potato waffles. After looking around […]

However, sooner after making it my spouse said “do you think you could make Peruvian Pesto for us”. I honestly didn’t know what Peruvian pesto […]

Yesterday, I had a bunch of spinach that I needed to use up. I decided that the best way to use it was to use it to make bread. I did a bunch of internet searching for a quick bread recipe because yeast bread isn’t really my forte. I ended up deciding to make a […]

Tonight, I decided to make and serve a bunch of different asian inspired dishes for dinner. The menu was pork satay, kimchi cucumbers and curried roasted sweet potatoes. Earlier I shared my recipe for kimchi cucumbers. To go with this and my satay, I decided to make sweet potatoes. This time of year I get […]

Summertime always means lots of fresh vegetables and at my parents place especially lots of cucumbers. I also get lots of cucumbers in my CSA box so I’m always trying to think of ways to use them. Pair this with the fact I really really like bulgur and the flavors or tabbouleh but don’t really […]
