Some of the recipes that I make for this blog are inspired by a single ingredient. Maybe it's something I found on sale at the store that wasn't on my grocery list, maybe it's something lingering in the refrigerator or pantry, or maybe I see something that inspires me. In this case, it was a little bit of all of those. I'm a sucker for a good deal and always try to save money at the grocery store. When I found some discounted portobello mushrooms, I needed to scoop them up. Portobellos are ... continue reading...
Blackberry Olive Oil Cake
There are a lot of things to love about living in the Pacific Northwest, but one of the things I love about the summers are the blackberry bushes that are everywhere! Picking blackberries can be dangerous business because of their gnarly thorns, but I think it's absolutely worth it to enjoy these delicious summer berries. In my lavender lemon scones post, I mentioned taking the boys on a daily walk where I can pick lavender. It's on this same walk route that I can pick ... continue reading...
Quinoa Stuffed Poblanos
I get love all the recipes that I test and post here, but this one made me especially excited. I've been making the "Mexican quinoa" filling for these poblanos for years.

Crockpot Mango Chicken Curry
I remember the first time I tried curry. I saw this recipe by one of my favorite bloggers and was intrigued, so I picked up some curry paste and coconut milk on my next grocery shopping trip. Now curry paste and coconut milk are staples in our house. I don't make curry too spicy so Lleyton will still eat it, but the flavor from the curry, coconut milk, fresh ginger, and garlic is amazing. Curry is so easy! And you all know how excited I get about easy, delicious dinners. This is the first ... continue reading...
Watermelon Mint Lemonade
If there was ever a drink that screamed summer, this is probably it. I decided to plant mint in my garden this year, and if you've ever planted mint, you know that it takes over very quickly. The cute little plant I got at a local nursery quickly turned into a giant bush. There are probably some mojitos in my future. This lemonade is non-alcholic, but I have a feeling it would be delicious with some vodka or tequila added to it and topped with club soda. It's the most refreshing thing you ... continue reading...
