Kate’s Thoughts for Food Meal Planning Service: Home-Cooking Made Fresh
I will keep this post short and sweet, just like this recipe! Because when you are 38 weeks pregnant, hungry, and frankly a little cranky, you want a snack that you can make quickly. FYI so does everyone else around you because apparently cranky, hungry pregnant women are not the most fun to be around. [...]
I love what I do, no questions asked. But never do I think of myself as some amazing chef or the greatest thing since sliced pumpkin Nutella bread. I’m just a simple home-cook who is passionate about what she makes and loves using the freshest, whole ingredients. So when I make something like the fig [...]
It’s kind of absurd how much ice cream I can eat. You know those contests where people have to eat multiple gallons of ice cream in a short time frame? I would win, hands down. It’s gross and completely unhealthy, but I’d be a champion. Greatest job I ever had was working at an ice [...]
This month I kicked off a partnership with Macaroni Kid: Macaroni Military Family. For those who may not be familiar, Macaroni Kid is a group of publishers that focus on providing details for family-friendly events and activities in communities across the U.S. via a free weekly newsletter. It’s an incredible resource for finding things to [...]
I cannot resist fresh berries. I cannot resist cheese. Put them together, and I’m doomed to not stop eating. For today’s seasonal recipe, I wanted to showcase strawberries in a slightly different way. I was inspired to combine the rich, tangy texture of goat cheese with the tart, sweetness of strawberries then added in a [...]
I cannot walk through the farmer’s market without picking up a pint or two of berries. Why is that?? I used to never eat berries and I do mean unequivocally never ate them: no strawberry shortcake, no blueberry pancakes, and definitely no raspberry jam. Now I am completely helpless to pass them up and make [...]
I picked up some fresh figs at this week’s Farmer’s market because they looked just too beautiful to pass up. I haven’t done much cooking with figs so I put an all points bulletin out on Facebook and Twitter looking for recipe suggestions. One of my favorite Twitter friends and all around good guy, @streske18, [...]
Life is getting considerably more exciting in our household! Our son officially started crawling over the weekend, which means being on baby alert during all waking hours. It is amazing how quickly they learn to move around and just how much they can get into. He is currently obsessed with our dog’s food dish and if I [...]
I love shortcuts, but only when they are of the healthy, natural variety. As a result I was a little skeptical when today’s recipe required me to cook my “baked” apples in the microwave. In the spirit of proper recipe testing I decided to ignore my urge to put the mixture in the oven and [...]
The variety of apples at the farmer’s market is so gorgeous right that I have been dying to find a recipe that would require me to try different types. Enter apple cake! I discovered this recipe last week and I knew it would be perfect to test out this week. Plus it gave me an excuse [...]
