Asparagus, one of my favorite vegetables ever, has come into season again. Along with lovely things like daffodils. spring rains, and blustery days. I like transition, even when it can make you uncomfortable for a bit, whether it be a new baby, a cold and unexpected rain shower, a change in jobs, fresh veggies [...]

You’ve maybe noticed that there’s been a decided lack of posts for the last while. Things really trickled over the last few months and then more recently went from a trickle to completely absent. That would be because about three weeks ago, we had the joy, the pleasure, and the privilege to welcome a new [...]

We’ve been going through a long period where my kindergartner has brought home every possible sniffle, sneeze, cough, cold, flu, and infection in school, with, thank goodness, the exception of the head lice I heard about recently. From my conversations with other parents, this is completely normal. However, I am not equating normal with desirable [...]
Palak Tofu

As the weather has turned colder, we’ve been getting a lot of spinach from the CSA, and we usually have a big tub of the same on hand anyway. And one thing about spinach is that it is 1) not very durable, and 2) doesn’t keep for very long (see #1). So I’ve been tossing [...]
Savory Autumn Stew

We’ve been really busy around here; I’ve been working a lot, Granola also works about 50 hours weekly, there’s school and toddlers throwing tantrums…a lot. Did you know that at about 20 months, toddlers will often get these Jekyll-Hyde types of personality and mood distortions? Either our oldest daughter was much easier, or since Granola [...]

One of our recent CSA aquisitions, that lasted about 24 hours, was a small bag of Purple Viking Potatoes. Not everyone is familiar with the fact that Minnesota is home to the Minnesota Vikings, an NFL team. Now, I am not at all a football person. In fact, the last time I attended a football [...]
Chickpea Cutlets & Southern-Style Greens
Posted in Dinner, tagged Beans, Greens, Southern, Vegan, Vegetarian on September 15, 2011 | 2 Comments »
Chickpea cutlets are to my heart and stomach what I know things like chicken-fried steak and the much-loved fried chicken are to most Southerners. I was raised in an area that [thought it] was like the deep South. Speech, summers, and people, in general, are slower, the economy was poorer, and many things were thought [...]
Vegan German Potato Salad

This recipe was one of those that came about due to the volumes of potatoes we were getting in our CSA. Granola made the comment that he really was craving potato salad, and we had potatoes coming out of our eyes
Sunburst Squash and Seitan Saute

It has occurred to me that I tend to make many “one-pan” recipes lately, and honestly, I don’t know how that happened. I used to adore spending hours in the kitchen even if only on the weekend, chopping, slicing, measuring, and slowly cooking for an afternoon, to come out with a beautiful and flavorful meal [...]
Smoky Black Beans

As vegetarians, we’re always trying to be intentional about protein in our daily menu. One of the simplest and most healthy ways to get a complete protein is to eat beans with rice. And one of our family’s favorite beans and rice dishes is the smoky black beans I’m about to tell you how to [...]
