Brussels sprouts are back in season, so if you need me I’ll be knee deep in my annual task of finding ways that my family will actually eat them.

It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it, especially when you love brussels sprouts as much as I do. I absolutely refuse to give them up just because my husband and child have alien taste buds.

What To Cook This Week - 11-13-21

Happy weekend! For anyone wondering, Remy did great with her vaccine last weekend. She didn’t have a single side effect, not even a sore arm, and we are grateful for every little bit of extra protection.

This weekend is starting out fairly warm so we are planning to spend some time outside today. It may be one of the last good weather weekends and we need to make the most of it while we can!

Here’s what we’re cooking:

  • Starting off the week with crispy gnocchi with roasted winter squash, cherry tomatoes, and ricotta. One of my favorites!
  • Next up – a hearty and wholesome vegan black-eyed pea and cauliflower chili.
  • On Tuesday we’re making Indian roasted chickpea and sweet potato curry. It bakes in one pot in the oven and is so warming!
  • Butternut squash pizza with ricotta and balsamic syrup is the perfect middle-of-the-week pick-me-up.
  • Finally, we’re ending the week with rigatoni with spicy pumpkin cream sauce.
  • For dessert we’re making TRIPLE chocolate cookies.

Happy eating!

It combines cranberries and burst of citrus flavor into a dense buttery pound cake base to make a cake worthy of your holiday celebrations.

One Pan Rice and Bean Enchilada Casserole

Hello new favorite (and possibly easiest) dinner EVER.

Not an exaggeration, I am in love with this meal. After one bite I literally rushed over to the pan for seconds before I’d even made a dent in my firsts.

Excessive? Perhaps, but I couldn’t risk letting my husband get there before me. IYKYK.

What To Cook This Week - 11-6-21

We are (literally) running out the door this morning to get Remy to her appointment for her first Covid shot! So let’s just get to the food, shall we?

Here’s what we’re cooking:

  • Starting off the week with the ultimate Sunday meal – tomato and brown butter ravioli. I think even my Italian grandma would approve of this one.
  • Next up – Indian butter paneer burritos! A fun fusion take on one of my favorite Indian dishes.
  • On Tuesday we’re making Thai-inspired tofu rama with peanut curry sauce. Feel free to use whatever veggies you have in the fridge to bulk this up.
  • Butternut squash and caramelized onion galette is one of my favorite fall meals! It’s also a great vegetarian option for the holidays.
  • Finally, we’re ending the week with a truly delightful roasted butternut and brussels sprout pesto pasta salad. So tasty.
  • For dessert (or brunch!), we’re making pumpkin chess pie bars. The best!

Happy eating!

Pear Bourbon Crumble Pie

Let’s hear it for the underdog of the fall fruit family!!

The underappreciated and, in my opinion, completely misunderstood PEAR.

If I’m being honest, even I did not fully appreciate the beauty of a good pear until fairly recently. For the longest time I was scarred by the memory of all the mealy, grainy fruit cup pears I was given by my grandparents in childhood, convinced that I would never – COULD never – love a pear.

All it took was my husband’s law firm sending us a gift box of Harry & David pears at the holidays for the past four years to convince me that maayyybeeee I should give them another shot.
