Yum, Yum, Yum! This was so good. This is a recipe from Tanzania according to my cookbook and I loved it. I’m a beans gal and this is a perfect way to highlight beans with a buttery, coconut-y soup. Along with a piece of buttered bread, I did a little dance eating this. I’m working…

Cajun Beans and Couscous
🙂. Yum! This is a night and light lunch (or dinner) that is super easy to make and take to work. I added the rest of the Steam-Fried Zucchini Halves for some extra veggies and to use the leftovers. I also added a nice heap of spicy salsa for extra flavor. I deviated from the…
Zucchini and Tomato Frittata
Yum, yum, yum. I love frittata’s and this one was more filling than I had anticipated. Frittata’s are wonderful breakfasts for me since I don’t always have time to cook in the morning and I’m not a fan of cereal. This one includes zucchini, tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and walnuts. I thought the walnuts were out…
Creamy Peanut Slaw
I am a fan of the sauce. This slaw satisfies need of salty and spicy Asian-inspired sauces. Two things would make this salad better: cilantro and crushed peanuts. I would totally do that with this recipe next time. Although, I’m tempted to take the sauce and just heat it up with ramen or glass noodles….
Whole Wheat Pizza Dough
I love to make pizza with my boyfriend. There was a couple of weeks where that’s what all we ate every weekend. Hands down Wegmans carries the best Pizza sauce. Not that terrible canned sauce, but in their pizza section; their sauce is flavorful and well-balanced. So instead of using some of their pre-made dough,…
Baby Spinach Salad with Dates and Almonds
This is a lovely salad to have as a lunch. My favorite part of this salad wasn’t even included in the title. I enjoyed the pita fried in butter and oil that were later coated in sumac to create delicious middle eastern croutons. This salad could be great as a side salad, or dressed up…
Stuffed Onions
So, I wanted to like these so much, but they’re not my taste. I love onions, but I feel like the flavors don’t exacty mess with each other. It was also disappointing since these took hours to prepare and I’m not one that likes to make too finicky of dishes that involve many steps and…
Watercress and Chickpea Soup with Rosewater and Ras el hanout
The star of this dish is the vegetables roasted in ras el hanout. Without it the soup itself is very healthy and floral tasting since it’s made of watercress and spinach. The soup is a little thin and okay, but when the ras el hanout seeps into the soup, WOW! The spice adds a little…
Lunch Week 2: Spaghetti Squash Pie
