She fancy. (not) But it looks and sounds fancy, so we’re going with it! Also, it’s painfully simple. WEEKNIGHT simple. Less-than-30 simple. Have I convinced you yet? Maybe if I show you a photo of me picking cherry tomatoes out of our garden. Will that do it? Let’s see. Hold on. Here it is. Eh? […]

Zucchini Sauté with Israeli Couscous, Feta and Tomatoes
Why yes, another end-of-summer side dish! If you dare. And what’s even better is that I have a story to go with it. You’re like, “please no.” So my bestie Laura was in town last weekend for my birthday, and we hit up a cute little indie bakery in the neighborhood for lunch. We ordered […]
Cheesy Tomato Bake
One last tomato recipe! I think. Maybe. If you’re lucky. I swear, every summer I get super psychotic about things to do with tomatoes. LET US BE CLEAR REAL QUICK: there’s nothing more supreme than a freshly sliced tomato with a sprinkle of salt on top. Nothing. It’s pure and perfect. Buuuuuut, I mean, if […]
Caprese Biscuit Tarts
Well aren’t these little guys cute? Is it a brunch item? Sure! An after-camp snack? Why not! An excuse to use one more exclamation point above the fold? Going for it! And the thing about these, besides the fact that the adorbs factor will force you to pet them and call them Frank, they’re super […]
Farro Salad with Cucumbers, Shallots and Mint
Summer salad city right here! But with guts. This originally started out in my head as a barley salad. Not a barely salad, but a barley salad. But the store barely had barley, so I found farro, and what followed was ferociously fabulous! I can chill. This though. What I imagine for your life is […]
Summer Vegetable Bake
But it’s crunchy! A crunchy summer vegetable bake. And it’s great. This is the thing, it’s not really a gratin. Once I put the zucch and the squash next to the tomatoes, they were such different sizes that instead of having a stroke, I decided we’d slice them into sticks this time. Sticks, I tell […]
Creamy Bowtie Pasta with Chicken and Tomatoes
Remember that whole trendy tomato and feta bake thingy from all those few days ago? This isn’t that. But! It’s kind of like it. Except there’s no feta in it, and it has chicken and cream added. So, exactly the not same. Wait, what? This is sort of a reverse bake. But so not complicated, […]
Flatbread Ranch Pizzas with Canadian Bacon and Tomatoes
Just want to make sure you caught the word ranch in the title. Ranch pizzas. These are ranch pizzas. There’s ranch in them. You know when you say a word so many times you don’t know what it is or if it’s right anymore? That just happened with ranch. Why does it sound weird? It’s […]
Grilled Eggplant and Corn Salsa
Side dish party town! (and it’s Paleo. I think.) It might not be with the corn in it, actually. Okay I just looked it up and it’s definitely not Paleo. Hahahahaha. But I psychotically love corn so I’m tweaking the rules. We’ll call it another PaleNo recipe. You dig? Of course you do. While eggplant […]
Cheesy Tomato Gratin
I’ll understand if you need a moment. And yes, that is a delicious summer gratin punching you square in the face right now. LOOK AT THAT. WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT. I also might want to mention that there are only five ingredients. Which makes this all the more awesome and less of an ordeal […]
