Fish is good. Fish is good for you. Let’s eat some tilapia, which is a very mild fish, and tends to take on the flavors of what you cook with it. So we are going to add in a little spice and a little tang via a flavorful spread for the fish, and a little […]
Eating seasonally is awesome. But I am not very good at it, mainly because I have a hard time knowing when things are in season. I think this is the plight of most Americans who don’t grow up in agricultural communities (which I’m given to understand is most Americans), because most grocery stores stock the […]
Happy New Year! What is it about fresh starts that is so exciting, so full of promise? I made like 10 resolutions this year (of course, about 5 of them are already shot…oops). Like…well, every American after the holiday season is over (ahem), several of my resolutions centered around eating well and getting back in […]
So I haven’t posted in a week…but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been cooking!

And don’t worry, I will share with you what I learned about the right proportions of curry paste to […]

There was always just something about the texture and greasiness of ground beef that was off-putting to me…it didn’t match with the smooth noodles and the creamy, stretchy cheese. Even before I became a vegetarian, I never felt quite at home with ground meats. So…imagine my delight when my […]
My husband and I don’t have a cable plan at our house. This is really no big deal, as Hulu keeps us knee deep in shows to waste time watching. The main drawback for me is that the Food Network hasn’t really caught on to the online episodes trend. Sure, they do have some episodes […]
It’s the time of year when I start thinking a lot about my waistline (er…actually, when isn’t it that time of year?). I’ve been going to a lot of events lately where I eat a lot of carb-rich foods (also known as: my favorite). If you are anything like me, not only are those calories […]
