i (heart) mushrooms

…especially these baby ‘bellas. I pan-fried them in their own juices, then added some vinegar-y shiraz and let ‘em go crazy. They went into a simple tomato sauce (courtesy of Alice Waters in The Art of Simple Food), along with

kheer + spicy ginger lentil soup

I can’t take credit for either one of these, but they were both FABulous. I ate the soup for a week (or more) and didn’t once get tired of it. It’s SUPER ginger-y, though! I think I added a little

cake decorating…a new calling?

I made this cake for a friend last month and had so much fun decorating it I wondered if I’d found a new calling! Regardless, I definitely found a new favorite buttercream frosting recipe. Here’s the link. It was so

maple and mustard-glazed salmon…(gluten-free) sandwiches!

This is another Serious Eats find that I loved. It was at least a month ago that I made it, but, hey, it’s been a busy month! At least I’m finally getting around to it. Here’s the link to the Maple

roasted brussels sprouts

Don’t skip over this post just because of the title! One of my roommates doesn’t like Brussels sprouts so much, but when she tasted these, she said, “I’d have a whole serving!” The inspiration for this recipe was a serious

goat cheese and cranberry salad

This is a pretty simple recipe, one inspired by a salad at a favorite local coffee shop. It’s been my dinner twice this week, mainly because it’s so easy! I’m sure it exists elsewhere on the interwebs, but here’s my

gluten-free fettucine with bacon, brussels sprouts, cranberries, and caramelized onion

I made this *excellent* pasta dish tonight that I discovered on serious eats, a really great blog with mostly-simple, almost-always-tasty-looking recipes. It was totally worth the midday trip to the grocery store, and the extra work I went to to

cheddar, bacon, and portobello sandwich (gluten-free)

While I was home, one of my brothers made me this tasty, lightly-grilled sandwich. It was super simple and incredibly tasty! I recommend Udi’s gluten-free multi-grain bread; this stuff blows my mind with how good it is, even straight out

gluten-free nanaimo bars

This is an adaptation of a gluten-full and dairy-full nanaimo bar recipe a friend of mine found online. The bolded ingredients are the GF/DF substitutions, and the ingredients in parentheses are from the original recipe. The dairy free substitutions are
