Veggie Overload

June 26, 2011

Since I have been working so much lately, most of our veggies from the CSA were still in the fridge.  Needing to get rid of them because we get more on Tuesday, Matt and I set out to eat pretty much only veggies for dinner. These are some of the best cooked beets we have [...]

Matt and I planned simple meals this week.  Work is crazy and I didn’t know when we would be home for dinner. Tonight’s meal sort of matched the weather of the day – cold and dreary.  We had Pacific Natural Creamy Tomato Soup with a grilled cheese. Plus a salad with tomato, lettuce, cucumber, radishes [...]

Deep Dish Pizza

May 9, 2011

For the second time this week, I found dinner inspiration on Simply Life’s blog.  Saturday I made falafel and tonight I made a deep-dish pizza.  I have never had deep dish pizza before so both Matt and I had no idea what to expect.  What I do know – this will be made again.  I [...]
