I sit here today with a big fat leftover bowl of this on my lap and a giant forkful in my mouth. It’s a good thing this blogging deal isn’t live and in video…you would question so very many things about me; including but not limited to: my upbringing (potentially questioning whether or not I was raised by wolves), if, in fact, I actually feed myself real human food on a regular basis (because the shoveling would lead one to believe genuine starvation could be a factor in this picture) or, if I treated myself to take out for lunch (from a very fresh, hip, homegrown-type of joint).

Simple Hot Cocoa
I hope your weekend was filled with so much love, friends! We had a great one…that consisted of much needed time out with friends, a lot of QT with the kids, all things heart shaped, sledding and…the only thing that should ever proceed a sledding experience..hot cocoa! Continue reading
Sausage, Bean and Veggie Soup
If you’re looking for a phenomenal tasting, ridiculously quick and easy recipe for a warm, cozy pot of soup head on over to Twin Cities Moms Blog, friends. I shared a family favorite today that I’m pretty positive you will adore as much as we do. I have shared the recipe with you in the past, but it’s been a while, so in case you’ve forgotten about it or missed it the first time around I thought it would only be noble of me to share it again. Especially considering the forecast here in Minnesota for the weekend. Oye. A piping hot bowl of this stuff juuuust might come in handy…brrr! Continue reading

Well, if you want to pair it with a fine white wine that would be okay. Continue reading
Lentil and Sausage Stew
I may have had MFPD when I threw this stew together. That’s a thing, right? Multiple Food Personality Disorder? You know, when you get cooking and throw a bunch of random ingredients together that aren’t typically supposed to “go” with one another?
Italian sausage and greek yogurt? Eh, it’s happened I suppose. But cilantro? Now thats just peculiar. But right. So very right with this stew. Continue reading
Roasted Spaghetti Squash Carbonara
I won’t deny it. Pasta Carbonara tends to be one of my favorite dishes on the planet when I’m in the mood for comfort. And my entire family is right there with me, even on picky-eating days. It’s as indulgent as all get out and I am always able to get it on the table in a matter of minutes which is huge.
But my little unsatisfied food brain got to thinking….if Carbonara is so delicious and weeknight savvy with spaghetti pasta…why the heck couldn’t it be with spaghetti squash? Continue reading
