I’ve been on a huge salad kick lately. Mostly because I can actually stomach them again, something I couldn’t really do while I was pregnant. I couldn’t really stomach anything besides popcorn and ice cream while I was pregnant. Which brings me to reason #2 why I’ve been eating a lot of salads: baby weight. [...]

These walnuts need to come with a huge warning label: ADDICTING. SEVERELY ADDICTING. DON’T LEAVE OUT IN PLAIN SIGHT. Seriously. Vanilla and walnuts are made for each other. Match made in food heaven. These are amazing on salads, would be great on ice cream or frozen yogurt (duh) and obvioussssssly are perfect on their own. [...]

Every time I eat refried beans out of can, I think about how salty they are. I love them, and I do love salt, but they are really too salty. When I was pregnant I couldn’t even really eat them and now I still don’t really enjoy them for this reason. Is that hormonal? Hormones [...]

Holy cow, I managed to cook, photograph and schedule a blog post with a 2-year-old and a 3-week-old! Maybe I can do this mom-of-two-kids-food-blogger thing after all. In reality, I shouldn’t brag too much, seeing as this recipe doesn’t really take more than 10 minutes to make. Oh well. Baby steps. And I burned one [...]
