Hazelnut-Cocoa Mascarpone Stuffed French Toast Sandwiches

Hi, welcome to the point of no return.

Pretty melodramatic for a brunch recipe, but I’m not even joking:

IT. IS. DANGEROUS.

Be prepared to never make another French toast recipe again.

Be prepared for your child to never eat anything else for breakfast again.

Be prepared to never even have a desire to go out for brunch again because why pay $23 for something you can make at home, but better?!

This is pandora’s box, people. Enter with caution.

Sweet Potato Butternut Apple Soup with Mascarpone

There is nothing quite like a bowl of this sweet potato butternut apple soup to warm up the chilly fall nights. Top with a dollop of mascarpone for a touch of extra decadence!

Can you all just confirm for me that the whole point of apple picking is to purchase so many pounds of apples that your arms ache for days afterwards,

more than you’ll believe you can ever use,

more than you can imagine that you’ll ever eat,

and basically enough for four apple pies plus snacks every day?

I’m right…….right?!?

Healthy Vegetarian Meal Plan – 10.7.17

This is the happiest of happy Saturdays!!

Why? Well, let me tell you.

(a) I don’t have to work! All weekend! It feels like a small miracle.

(b) We have an exterminator coming. I saw/killed a cockroach every day in my kitchen this week and basically refuse to be in the kitchen alone, so I’ve been bringing Remy in with me for protection. Mostly because she’s so loud that I’m pretty sure the roaches cower in fear when they hear her coming. They’re obviously zero percent scared of me but so far stay hidden out of sight whenever she’s around. Anyway, I’m not exactly sure we’re going to let the exterminator do anything because we have a child who basically licks the floor every five seconds and I’d refer she not eat insecticide, but I’m at least hoping they’ll give us some insight on child-proof ways to get rid of these things. TBD.

(c) We’re going apple picking! I have wanted to go apple picking every year since forever, but the last time I went was in college. More than 8 years ago. It just feels like every year, by the time I get my act together it’s already late October and all of the apple picking is done for the year. Luckily because my schedule is so constrained this year, I’ve had to give it some foresight and so we are going this weekend. And that’s final!

Hope you all have a fun, food-filled weekend! Happy eating!

Sweet Potato, Brown Butter, and Fried Sage Pizza

It’s the first week of October and I feel strangely compelled to tell you that I have kept NONE of my new year’s resolutions this year. I mean, this feels like as appropriate a time as any to check in, especially since in the blink of an eye I’ll be making new ones that I’m sure will go as swimmingly well as these did.

Hah.
