I’m obsessed with the Vitamix we’ve now had in our kitchen I think one month or so that we were easily sold on during the usual trip to Costco (how stuff gets into the basket and makes it home, I’ll never know). I’m a professional blow-out blender girl (kitchenaid, cuisinart, black-n-decker) so I’ve been dreaming…
Category: It’s What’s for Breakfast
easy bake quiche
After a day at the wineries, we were all due for a cozy day in. Starting the day off with quiche fills you up for a long haul of resting on the couch. Inspiration here was Tillamook white cheddar cheese from the wine country excursion and ciabatta bread left over that we were supposed to…
Summer BBQ’s beckon some spice. Cornbread that will have you craving for another slice…
Wow it’s been awhile since I’ve posted on here… so while I am collecting ideas on my next postings, this one was easy enough to do. Since my last posting I got a new job at a company I love and did some traveling to Florida, UK and Germany (for the first time). Sadly I…
Back from vacation into the kitchen, easy like sunday morning… sausage sautee
I’m back from my amazing heritage trip- of which I will share later how I ate my way through both Poland and Czech Republic in separate posts- and back in the kitchen. I’m feeling really lazy since I’ve been back so today I wanted to make something easy and that would remind me about my trip. Thinking about…
Lemon sour cream almond pancakes/waffles
I woke up this morning thinking it’s a rainy day, perfect reason to cook. Craving something sweet and hearty. Going through in my mind what was in the kitchen, I started googling ideas, was my idea possible. Lemons (lots of them) sourcream and almonds. I’d made lemon cottage cheese pancakes before (will post later). So…
Grilled Vegetables- it’s what’s left in the fridge
Grilled vegetables, it’s what’s left in the fridge. Tomatoes, squash, snap peas, onion, kale, peppers, potatoes in spanish olive oil, crushed red pepper, tjoes everything seasoning, sea salt and pepper. Fresh pretty and deliciously healthy. Great way to not let the veges go to waste and they held their flavor for over a week stored…
Happy St. Paddy’s day- sustain through the day w-o-lil green smoothie
Kicking this st pattys day off with a little-o-green kiwi mandarin smoothie! Unfortunately I also blew my “miracle” blender as I ironically took out a magic bullet out of my Costco cart yesterday- thinking “do I really need it”?
Lazy saturday morning eggs greek-style
One of my favs. Greek eggs (cherry tomatoes, feta, olives) with crisp potatoes and turkey bacon. Breakfast on a lazy Saturday morning…
Adding flavor to boring turkey bacon
I grew up with a nice treat on Sundays – brown sugar bacon. TJoes turkey bacon is – well meaty- and actually doesn’t taste like bacon for a lot of reasons- it’s not. So to “spice it up” I cook (stovetop in pan) it up with a spread of brown sugar and then some caliente…
