Kale-stuffed Mushrooms
Goose loved these, and they were fun to make, since most of the ingredients were local and seasonal! Large Portabella mushrooms (remove and dice stems) Kale Pine-nuts Grated cheese (I used sharp cheddar) Bacon Cream Butter Garlic Remove the stems from the mushrooms and dice. Lightly saute the mushroom caps in butter on each side, … Read more
Cheesy Spinach/Squash Casserole
Goose says this is the best thing EVER, which, in my book, means it’s blog-worthy. (Well, that and the 5 helpings she ate.) Lil Pea, on the other hand, does not eat her food “mixed up” and wouldn’t touch it. We have found it’s best to serve her a “deconstructed” dinner, and since she likes … Read more
Bean n Cheese Burgers
Sorry about the poor food staging and photo– we were anxious to dig into these! The girls and I loved these, and they are a one-bowl dish (plus a skillet.) I purposefully made them on a night when Twig wasn’t home, since they are vegetarian and he is anything but! I knew he would be … Read more
Mexican Casserole
Trying to make good tasting food with what we have on hand and meet everyone’s various dietary restrictions is no easy feat! I’m out of eggs, which are really a staple in our house, but luckily I know how to conform to all sorts of dietary challenges when cooking and baking. Another issue we are … Read more

She never measured them, so when I called to get the recipe I got this: “Mix leftover cooked potatoes w/some cheese, an egg, and some flour. You’ll know.” Twig thought this was hilarious since … Read more
Bread
This was a paleo bread recipe that I modified so that it would be a little fluffier and sweeter. You can certainly make bread with flax, eggs, nuts, and little else, but since we still consume grains, I wanted something with a bit of a texture similar to the breads we have known in our … Read more
Thursday Tip: Just Grate!
With every meal plan, I always think to myself how much quicker dinner would go if only I had one day where I could do vegetable prep, and yet I never get that day (or make myself take the time!) Starting a few weeks ago, I finally decided enough was enough and something had to … Read more
That’s a Wrap!
We’ve been loving lettuce wraps for a long time now, and it’s something I don’t think I’ve really talked about here, so it’s time to share. Goose and I gravitate toward them for lunch a lot of times- they’re just as fast and easy as a sandwich, and just as portable with a reusable container. … Read more
