And peas! Risotto with Shrimp, Bacon, Zucchini and Peas. The peas part. I’d like to think of this mess as a late summer kitchen sink risotto thingy. I MEAN, you can make it any time of year really. But right now it’s summer, so I’m calling it summer. Only because the shrimp isn’t in season […]
Dog days. And I hate the words dog and days back to back. But it’s the gruesome reality we face. It’s the injustice ways of Mama Nay Nay with her lethal dragon breath upon our fragile skin. And I KNOOOOW turning on the oven is travesty. I get it! I do. But. It’s our only […]
AS IN, you can make this today or right now. Listen, it’s the second half of the summer. The heat and humidity have maliciously teamed up to make every waking second of our lives A YUCKY, SLOPPY, STICKY LIVING HELL. Revenge? Now traditionally, I do know that rocky road ice cream simply consists of chocolate […]
And jalapeno! Can’t forget the jalapeno. Because jalapeno. So the story behind theez har recipay: I have a winter version. Actually, it’s not so much a winter version, but an all-the-time-in-my-face version. Kale, Italian sausage, GUH. You know my love for those two words back to back. The other week I made the kale/sausage version […]
Beautiful. Bright. Glorious. But now let’s talk about this salad. This mess is straight up (now tell me) out of control. First of all, look at that color! Don’t you want to punch it in the shin? I don’t eat enough Israeli couscous. Truthfully, I kind of forgot about it, until I spotted it in […]
JUNE IS BUSTING OUT ALL OVERRRRR. And by that I mean it’s pouring rain. But I’ll take it! Because in about a month, we gon’ be dry and barren and humid and icky and nasty and sweaty and dead grassy and whiney and weedy and no. Remember in old movies how June was always THE […]
(This post is definitely in partnership with Flatout Flatbread. But all flatbread inhaling and ramblings are totally my own. We coo?) FLATBREAAAAAAAD. Remember how I used to say that a lot back in my early blogging days? Remember this? You’re like, “DUDE I HAD BLOCKED THAT.” Well I made you another one, and there’s nothing […]
Isn’t May 18th the unofficial gateway to pasta salad season in my head? Thought so. I think I just came with your very favorite new pasta salad. I really do. I seriously do. Because it’s not BORING. Not to say other pasta salads are boring. That was rude. But you know how you get super […]
Oh, hey, hey, hey! And welcome to the summer edition of What We’re Diggiiiin’! (I’m not giving you a car.) I thought I was phasing this series out, but thanks to the tsunami wave of your, “Um, NU UH, home girl,” I kept it! And so glad I did, because I have theee coolest, most […]
I’m still trying to find ways to stick summer in soup. And I’d call this one a dern success. First of all, it’s fresh corn! When it’s July and hot and blazin’ hot and very hot and summer and July and hot in July you use fresh corn. It’s mandatory for your health and personal […]
