  • Cilantro Lime Green Cayenne Hot Sauce

    Cilantro Lime Green Cayenne Hot Sauce

    Here’s the thing: It’s been crazed here, and I’ve been flaking a bit on blog-related recipe development. So I’m giving you another hot sauce recipe I developed in the fall. These peppers came from a mix of peppers that Mary S and I grew this summer, green cayennes (they hadn’t ripened to red before being…

  • Corn & Black Bean Casserole (vegan & gluten-free)

    Corn & Black Bean Casserole (vegan & gluten-free)

    So this post needs to be quick, as I’ve spent the past two weeks moving and I’m exhausted. But this dinner was also quick — and hot and comforting. Well, the prep work is quick. It does take about an hour to bake. Keep that in mind. This is the first thing I made in…

  • Pink Grapefruit Sarit Gat Hot Sauce

    Pink Grapefruit Sarit Gat Hot Sauce

    Pink Grapefruit Sarit Gat Hot Sauce It’s cold here. We had that ridiculous storm, there’s a ton of snow (literally and figuratively) outside. So hot sauce might make it all better, so I’m sharing one of the hot sauces I made from the peppers MaryKate sent me from Seattle in the fall. She sent me…

  • Quick Pumpkin Sausage Sauce

    Quick Pumpkin Sausage Sauce

    So, for me, the key to quick weeknight meals lies in advance prep, whether it be making basic ingredients ahead of time (like soup stocks) or finding staples that are safe for me. Because my allergies are pretty basic and don’t include corn (and soy is something I’m mildly reactive to), I can use most…

  • Instant Pot Black Beans and Rice

    Instant Pot Black Beans and Rice

    Since this week’s theme is quick work-night dinners, I thought it might be time to introduce my use of the Instant Pot since I’ve had it for about a year and half now. I know that I’m a kitchen gadget junkie, but I love this thing and I’m considering getting a second one as they…

  • Quick Work-night Meals: Rice Salad

    Quick Work-night Meals: Rice Salad

    December’s theme is “food for all those days between Thanksgiving and New Year’s that aren’t holidays.” Or, to be less wordy (never my strong suit): quick work-night meals. Meals that you can prepare after a long day at work or doing whatever it is you do that makes you tired. You still have to eat,…

  • Chocolate Pudding with Whipped Topping, both Vegan and Gluten-Free!

    Chocolate Pudding with Whipped Topping, both Vegan and Gluten-Free!

    Well, it’s our last Element of our Element theme month post, Air! Let’s face it, my air options were fairly limited, unless I wanted to get all lawyerly and make up an argument about why some ingredient was air related. And so as not to subject you all to that, I made a chocolate pudding…

  • Chili Lime Hot Sauce

    Chili Lime Hot Sauce

    Chili Lime Hot Sauce So, it’s still the Elements theme month. (Yes, I know, what were we thinking?!) We decided that I would do Fire for obvious reasons. I am to spicy food as MaryKate is to potatoes. I have a dried chili collection. Before the corn allergy hit, I had a commercial hot sauce…
