Holiday Stress Relief

Kelly — Thu, 17 Dec 2015 01:50:55 +0000

That post title sounds a little loaded when you consider I just got back from a cruise and am about to go to Mexico, but try not to throw anything at me, k? Holidays can be an extra stressful for a million reasons, so I’m a firm believer in taking advantage of alone time or […]

Peppermint Brownie Cookies

Kelly — Fri, 11 Dec 2015 00:48:48 +0000

Long time no chat! Things have been a little hectic around these parts, mainly with the amount of traveling we’ve been doing. We always take a trip around Thanksgiving (this year a cruise to St Thomas and St Maarten!), but this year it was extra long and coming right after some remodeling and a job […]

Pumpkin Spice Nog

Kelly — Sun, 15 Nov 2015 18:36:50 +0000

By posting this recipe I am entering a recipe contest sponsored by siggi’s yogurt and am eligible to win prizes associated with the contest. I was not compensated for my time. I received free product for the purposes of recipe development. This is oddly embarrassing, but I have no idea when I’m supposed to drink […]

Sloppy Joe Tater Tot Casserole (Vegetarian/Vegan)

Kelly — Mon, 26 Oct 2015 11:00:00 +0000

Despite the lack of Halloween recipes on here, it’s actually my favorite holiday. Getting to dress up as someone/something else and just be extra frivolous for the night with handfuls of candy is just my jam. I can barely remember my costumes from when I was little, but the last few years I’ve been making […]

Veggie-Packed Cabbage Soup

Kelly — Fri, 23 Oct 2015 11:00:46 +0000

Cabbage soup is not something that I ever expected to crave. I remember making big batches of it in high school and eating it because it was crazy low in calories (Weight Watchers zero point soup, if you’re familiar), not because it was crazy delicious. In fact, I pretty much hated cabbage and everything to […]

Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies with Agave

Kelly — Thu, 22 Oct 2015 00:58:56 +0000

Wednesday October 21st, 8:23 pm. Just saw the largest spider ever observed in recorded history. Because we have a catch-and-release policy for spiders — the spiders don’t know they’re trespassing, right? — Josh just spent a solid 15 minutes trying to wrangle it into a cup. And by cup, I mean takeout container from the Thai restaurant […]

Olive Tapenade and Red Pepper Hummus Dip

Kelly — Mon, 19 Oct 2015 01:31:38 +0000

Probably more of a surprise to see a post today than not, right? I didn’t mean to surprise take 1 month off from blogging, but apparently that’s what I did. With a shift in focus at work combined with some home renovations that have left me sleeping in the living room, I’ve just had a […]

Greek Yogurt + Avocado Ranch Dressing

Kelly — Fri, 11 Sep 2015 11:00:02 +0000

Josh and I eat a ridiculous amount of Ranch dressing. Like, a scary amount. Almost as much Ranch as barbeque sauce, but let’s get real, I’d basically have to drink the stuff to consume more Ranch than barbeque sauce. Our brand of choice isn’t exactly the healthiest choice, but it just tastes so good. None […]

Baked Apple-Stuffed Pancakes

Kelly — Wed, 09 Sep 2015 11:00:31 +0000

The first day of autumn isn’t for a few weeks, but if Starbucks is selling their pumpkin spice lattes, than I declare it to be fall. Also, the enormous pile of apples in my kitchen declares it to be fall. The last few years I’ve been just swimming in apples from my parents’ trees and […]

Cheeseburger-Style Grilled Cheese

Kelly — Fri, 21 Aug 2015 21:48:32 +0000

This month’s Recipe Redux prompt was about getting back to the dinner table. Coming back from vacation, getting back into a routine, and sitting down to eat a healthy dinner together. After a vacation (especially one with many indulgent treats) there is nothing I want more than to eat a huge salad. Well, after a […]
