December 2013 – surviving the food allergy apocalypse

Month: December 2013

  • Butternut Squash Soup

    If I’m completely honest, I have some mixed feelings about butternut squash. In some preparations, its earthy and fruity and warming. In others, I don’t know, but I don’t like it.

I couldn’t resist adding a bit of spice to this recipe, but it’s minimal in the finished product. If spice…

  • Simple Jambalaya Stew

    Are you sick of turkey, maybe not ready for chicken, but it’s cold outside? Maybe something completely different is in order? And it’s still really cold out? One of my favorite bad day “anywhere but here” fantasies involves the story my friend Jodi and I like to tell about our future retirement to New Orleans,…
