When I was growing up, my family would spend a week every summer on Martha's Vineyard. One night we always went out for a "fancy" dinner at this restaurant called the Ocean View, which actually didn't have a view of the ocean, but let's not split hairs. My mom would order a lobster and my dad ...
Coconut Lime Banana Bread
It was -2°F degrees out this morning when I loaded Owen into the car to go to daycare. Still, he refuses to wear a hat. Every time I put one on him (a sun hat, a baseball cap, even a jacket hood) he rips it off and yells "Noooo!" When I tried to put it back on I said, "Doesn't that feel goooood?" ...
Lemony Broccoli Rabe with Almonds and Raisins
I went back and forth about whether to post this recipe. There is nothing particularly ground-breaking about it. But it's mid-February, and maybe you're feeling a little bit stuck in a rut, vegetable wise. I know I am. The past couple of weeks have been super busy, and I've been throwing our meals ...
Skinny Vegan Chocolate Cake
My very first recipe testing job was for The Veselka Cookbook. One summer, 125 Ukrainian recipes. You guys, I made so. many. perogies. And also five kinds of borscht. It was crazy and stressful and amazing, and I was so proud of myself (and stuffed) when I was done. To celebrate, naturally I baked a ...
Sweet Potato and Corn Quesadillas
I had this random sweet potato sitting on the counter for weeks. It was leftover from some soup I made. I was planning to roast it or mash it or do something with it, but I kept forgetting. So it sat there withering away, until it was so wrinkly and soft that I tossed it out. Then literally two days ...
Buffalo Popcorn
You guys know I'm from Foxboro, right? Deflategate or no deflategate, I'm rooting for Katy Perry. Seriously, I may be married to one of the biggest sports fans of all time, but my favorite parts of the Super Bowl have always been the ads, the halftime show, and--of course--the snacks. That said, ...
Whole Wheat Apple Brown Betty
Sometimes I sneak away very early on weekend mornings and run on the treadmill in my in-laws' basement. It's nice to get my workout in before Alex and Owen are up…and also there are usually back-to-back episodes of The Pioneer Woman playing on the Food Network. I've never even made one of her ...
Sweet Potato Soup with Peanut Butter
Last week, on a particularly freezing evening, I came home from working in the city to find that my mother-in-law had brought us dinner from one of our favorite local restaurants. Yay! She totally saved us, as I had literally nothing in the fridge except a carton of eggs and a head of broccoli. We ...
Beet, Banana, and Oat Smoothie
I've come clean with you before about my love for vacuum-packed cooked beets. I know, I know, they are more delicious and less expensive when you roast and peel them yourself, but let's face it: beet cookery is a dangerous business. Every time I do it, I ruin either a manicure or a sweater. It's ...
Mushroom and Spinach Turnovers with Porcini Cream
Pepperidge Farm puff pastry is one of those accidentally vegan food products, like Oreos, unfrosted Pop-Tarts, and Hershey's chocolate syrup. No, it's not exactly healthy, but I think it's totally fine in moderation--and especially when it's used to give a big, warm, flaky-pastry hug to veggie ...
