Toaster oven roasted fennel
It’s still spring in the northern hemisphere, but already too hot where I live to turn on the oven. I’m having to look for alternative ways to cook and eat spring vegetables. I saw some appetizing fennel bulbs at the store and decided to try roasting them. Fresh fennel is crisp with a licorice taste,…

Adventures in nut butter, Part II
Previously in Adventures in nut butter, I made almond-walnut butter but I wasn’t happy with the texture. I said I would try changing up the recipe. For this experiment I 1) changed the almond::walnut ratio, and 2) used my blender instead of the food processor. I’m happy to report that the changes were a success!…

No prep chickpea rice bowl
While browsing Trader Joe’s I noticed their eggplant with tomatoes and onions in a can and thought: huh, that would go really well with some of Heyday’s beans in a can. Specifically, their coconut curry or harissa lemon chickpeas. I decided to try combining them over rice, and topping it all with cheese and yogurt.…

They’re somewhere between a crepe and a pancake. You can eat them stacked with maple syrup, but you can also eat them with fillings. So far I’ve tried…

Whipped cottage cheese is just okay
I heard about whipped cottage cheese from You Gotta Eat, and apparently it was a TikTok trend at some point. The idea is that cottage cheese is high protein, but the texture is weird, so let’s put it in the blender and create a food with the same nutrients, but a creamier consistency. You can…

Adventures in nut butter
I’ve been staring at the nut butter shelves when I go to the supermarket and just not seeing anything appealing or interesting. For the price, I want to be excited to eat what I’m getting. So instead of buying it, I decided to make a custom nut butter. I’ve made almond butter successfully before, but…

Review of “You Gotta Eat”
I recently read Margaret Eby’s “You Gotta Eat.” As the blurb says: A trained chef teaches you how to keep yourself fed–and maybe even enjoy it!–in the face of stress, burnout, and exhaustion. Eby makes a great point about cooking: “the best food is the food that you’ll eat.” I forget that a lot when…

If you too are seeing egg shortage signs in your local grocery store, rest assured: there are no eggs in this frittata. I found this Air Fryer Spinach, Pepper and Havarti Frittata recipe while looking for dinner ideas, and decided to try it with JUST egg. It was delicious, especially with leftover pancakes. Here are…
