Potato Rolls with Chives | #BreadBakers
Soft potato rolls for your next dinner. They're super-soft thanks to a boiled potato, and loaded with chives. These were supposed to be Potato Rolls with Rosemary. But at the last minute, I realized I didn't actually have any fresh rosemary, and was concerned dried rosemary might be a little coarse and gritty in these soft potato rolls. But I had a small container of partly dried chives, and went with those instead. Recipes need to be flexible in my opinion, to accommodate what we ...
How to Make Soup (+ 7 Fall Favorites!)
When skies turn gray with thunderous clouds, and sleeting rain and snow chill my bones, I obsess over fall soups. A steaming bowl of broth and vegetables warms me up from the inside out. I create new soups out of whatever vegetable is in season, but I have my favorites. They're a wonderful way to take advantage of season vegetables and fruits. Butternut squash in fall, beets in winter, strawberries in spring, and cantaloupe in summer. If you'd like to create your own using your favorite ...

Yogurt Cake with Pears
Tender and moist yogurt cake dotted with pears, cranberries and chocolate chips. Perfect for dessert, brunch, or as an afternoon snacking cake with a cup of tea. I've been making this yogurt cake for a long time, since I first saw it on Food52. I've made it with oil, as in the original recipe, used various fruits, and made it with and without the chocolate. (Hint: it's way better with even a few chocolate chips.) I think the first thing that drew me to it was the yogurt. Since I live ...

Apple Chutney
This apple chutney with raisins is so good, you might want to grab a spoon and just eat it from the jar. Fall is apple chutney season.

I'm making a new batch to experiment with it in wraps of black beans and roasted squash. This chutney is slightly modified from one of Ina Garten's on The Food Network that got rave reviews. Ingredient ...
How to Cook Spaghetti Squash (Oven + Air Fryer Methods)
Spaghetti squash was not the first squash I fell in love with. It took some time. It's a very mild tasting squash, and when everyone was raving about using it in place of wheat pasta noodles, I did not hop on board. I liked pasta just the way I'd always had it, thank you very much. And confession: I wasn't completely sure how to cook spaghetti squash. Comparing Spaghetti Squash: In the Oven vs Air Fryer, Microwave and Pressure Cooker This post covers the best (IMHO) ways to cook ...
Vegetarian Meal Plan (Autumn) – #18
From the time I was a child, September has always meant a new start. It was the start of the school year, with new notebooks, new books, new teachers, and a fresh new slate to build on. I'm still that way. And I'm starting off with a meal plan for the week ahead. As always, some are from my blog - old favorites I haven't made in awhile - and one is brand new to me from a website that caught my eye this week! Additionally, my meal plans always have a lot to do with what's in my refrigerator ...
Quinoa Salad with Zucchini and Tomatoes
It's been a hot summer all over the country. Even high in the mountains where we live. So, over the past couple months, I've been all about dinners that come together super-fast and little to no cooking. And this quinoa salad with zucchini fits the bill. It cooks up in under 20 minutes if you have a batch of cooked quinoa in the refrigerator like I often do, and it's absolutely delicious. In fact, it's my newest go-to dinner for myself and casual dinners with friends with all the fresh ...
10-Minute Garlic and Herb Sautéed Zucchini
I consider zucchini a low maintenance vegetable. Unlike, say, artichokes. (Sorry artichoke lovers!) I love artichokes too, but consider the facts. Zucchini needs little prep, no matter how you choose to use it. It plays well with many herbs and veggies. And you can serve it raw for some crunch in a salad, grilled or sautéed. And sautéed zucchini cooks up in about 10 minutes. Take that, artichoke! Zucchini is Super-Healthy Zucchini is rich in nutrients, antioxidants ...
