It’s the new year and I wanted to have something fresh and easy to start it off with. I tend to turn to tomatoes and herbs from my garden when I’m looking for something special and fresh. What do you tend to go for? Tomatoes and herbs just go together so nicely and have the […]
It’s been 2 years (YEARS!) since I’ve eaten red meat. That’s a long time. That said, I haven’t had the most consistent path with red meat…. I didn’t love it growing up and in fact, I didn’t eat it from ages 15-27. My mom used to make me eat meatloaf and I would literally gag […]
It’s football season! We love making some warm foods that fill the house with delicious smells every Sunday. While Trevor is a Jets fan, I’ll forever be a Giants fan. It’s tough not being able to watch our teams on our local network, but we make do. 🙂 And the food definitely helps make up […]
Need a quick and easy dinner for Halloween? Try this delicious meatball mummy! It’s made with some store-bought puff pastry, cheese pre-made meatballs (I just used some veggie turkey meatballs I had leftover in the freezer) and sauce. That’s it! It’s done in 30 minutes and it couldn’t be more spooky. If you want some […]
There are those nights when you look in the pantry and realize you have ‘nothing to make for dinner’. Those are the nights I usually whip out the pasta. Pasta is the best, too, because it can be on a meal on its own, or the glue that holds a dish together. This is one […]
In the fall, I bought Tieghan Gerard’s latest cookbook, Super Simple, after my friend Amy RAVED about it to me. I knew Tieghan had a new cookbook out but debated buying it since so many of her amazing recipes were online. But, after Amy would tell me daily (not kidding!) how good her recipes were, […]
Sometimes, I want cereal for dinner. And sometimes I want cereal in my dinner. Tonight was the later. I bought a ton of these massive drumsticks before Corona hit thinking we’d use them to bbq for a party, but we’re not having any of those these days (cough – stay 6 feet away, please!!). So, […]
Tonight’s dinner is a quick pantry/freezer bake inspired by a recipe Inspiralized post a week or so ago. I didn’t have all the ingredients, so I altered it and came up with this super yummy bake. It’s veggie and protein packed, gluten free, and absolutely delicious. I gave this to the girls and they were […]
Here’s another easy dinner that you can make with just a few ingredients. Take the tilapia you have in the freezer, a lemon and lime (these keep for a long time, so they’re good things to stock up on) and a few sprigs of parsley from the home garden (inside or outside) and you have […]
Corona Virus. It’s all anyone is talking about, thinking about… talking about…. thinking about… these days. It’s hard to find fresh foods at the shops. It’s hard to find the desire to go in public to shop at the food stores. So, I’ll be focusing more on Mostly Pantry Dinners. Tonights dinner is brought to you […]
