First off, if you’ve made a resolution to lose weight, stop reading right now! For the rest of you…on with the post. I’m spoiled and my waist shows it. I’m a live to eat person and find very few things more enjoyable than a good meal. I eat well…often. However, even for me certain foods […]

Roasted Tomato and Kalamata Olive Pasta
Let’s just say, it’s no secret to Mariel and Mary Ann that I’m a big fan of theirs. I started following Feast on the Cheap when they were just a baby blog 😉 As a point of interest, it was their blog where I first heard about Secret Recipe Club! Ahh-yup, my very first […]
Spaghetti alla Carbonara
This never happens, ever. I got my Secret Recipe Club assignment this month and within 30 seconds I had a recipe picked out. Just.like.that. I was assigned Kate’s Kitchen, as I scrolled down her page I saw this egg yolk nested in spaghetti and the word guanciale jumped out at me. Done. That’s it. That’s […]
Macaroni and Cheese Perfected!
Macaroni and Cheese…perhaps the ultimate comfort food? Mac-n-cheese has been a staple all my life, only it came in the form of a box, not homemade. Typically not the blue box that you may have been thinking of; we were usually stocked up with that plain white box with the black lettering MACARONI AND CHEESE […]
Hearty Spring Pasta
I’ve decided that Mother Nature is either a manic depressive or severely PMSing during the spring. She’s definitely a moody one, especially in Montana. Maybe it’s because she loves us so much that it incurs this severe differences in our days (you know the saying, you hurt the ones you love the most). For […]
Meyer Lemon and Sprouted Pesto
It may be winter outside but it’s spring in my house. My garden last summer was a total disaster, I obviously had no clue what I was doing and while I was gone for 5 months, let’s just say that McGyver and Thing 2 didn’t give it much attention. I yielded a couple of radishes […]
Homemade Pasta–Goose Confit and Ricotta Ravioli
Inspiration comes from many places. I never dreamed that a challenge from another blogger would get me going, I mean really going. Simone over at Junglefrog Cooking, set out a challenge for this month to make something homemade. As in, not a homemade meal, but rather something homemade that you would normally purchase, such as […]
Lemon Pepper Asparagus Pasta Salad
One these days I’m going to count how many recipes that I’ve posted that have lemon as an ingredient? Perhaps I shouldn’t or I might find out exactly how freakishly obsessed I am with all things lemony. Sometimes is just better not to know. I’m finally posting my the recipe that I eluded to in […]
Romano Orzo-SRC reveal
A month ago when I said I was participating in the next month’s Secret Recipe Club, I didn’t know what I was getting myself into. I simply looked at the date and thought, hmm, right during break, perfect. Posting is right during break, but picking out the recipe and cooking and photographing meant that it […]
Rocky Mountain Steak Salad
We’ve certainly had an unusual winter this year, not much snow but a lot more grey days. Deep dark depressing grey days. Days that make you want to cuddle up on the couch with a good book or movie and some hot tea and not leave the house (or couch) at all. It was one […]
