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
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
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…

Mushroom Hash
So for the “earth” side of our elements challenge, I knew from the start that I’d be using mushrooms, the earthiest food I love (and that Denise hates). Adding to the incentive, it’s mushroom “season” in the Pacific Northwest, meaning even our normal grocery stores have chanterelles (though at great cost)! I did not use…

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…

Ox Tail Noodle Soup
It’s Elements Month! Yeah, you read right. Elements. Earth, Fire, Air, and Water. Four Mondays in November, four elements to be inspired by. Why not? This year, we made a plan via Skype — monthly themes to inspire us. We used to get together more often to plan our editorial calendar, but now we do…
