The air is brisk. The salt trucks are driving up and down my street. The heater is working overdrive right now. I half-considered not unraveling myself out of my bedroom blankets this morning. Winter is here and it sucks. I haven't been outside in days. I haven't seen the sun in days. The temperature hasn't… Continue reading Hummus Ranch Veggie Wrap

Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
I discovered the strangest thing in my spaghetti squash this weekend. The seeds had sprouted inside of the squash! I had never seen anything like that. How could they sprout with any sunlight? They were locked in tight inside that spaghetti squash flesh! I planted a few outside my laundry room door to see if… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Spaghetti Squash

Instead, all of my summer produce will quickly be replaced by fall… Continue reading End of Summer Salad

Papa Verde Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
I'm all about comfort foods right now. Potatoes, pasta, cookies, you name it. This whole "end of the world" thing has got me feeling a certain type of way. I know we should all be about eating healthy right now since most of us are homebound, but it's really hard given the circumstances. I'm having… Continue reading Papa Verde Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
