Move over quinoa! There’s a new grain in town. Farro takes the world by storm in this cheesy farro and cauliflower risotto that gives comfort food a whole grain makeover.
I will scream to the high heavens about the benefits of eating the rainbow, but put me in a corner with a bowl of this cauliflower farro risotto, which is fifty shades of sepia, and I will go.to.town.
You should probably avert your eyes.
It will not be pretty.
1. MOUSE UPDATE: I think we might be mouse free. It’s hard to say and we still have twelve dozen traps out (not an exaggeration) but an exterminator came on Monday and sealed up all the holes in the radiators. I’m pretty sure everyone within a 20 block radius breathed a sigh of relief because they were tired of hearing my shrieks.
2. To celebrate the eviction, the.boy got us tickets to see Trans Siberian Orchestra! Okay, really he won them from a local radio show, but still. It’s the thought that counts.
3. He’s a keeper.
Roasted root vegetables are tossed with Israeli couscous and a nutty sesame chili sauce in this salad that is worthy of a fall celebration.
While we’re on the subject of deepest darkest secrets (and when are we not, really), you should know that I have Thanksgiving takeover plans.
Of epic proportions.
Warmly spiced Moroccan chickpea and butternut squash soup for those nights when you need something to cozy up to.
I am living in a war zone.
You might have thought the days of trench warfare ended with World War I, but au contraire, my friends. The.Boy and I have been waging an all-out black ops mission.
From our couch.
Who needs pie when you have a pumpkin mousse tart? This sweet treat is extra special with it’s black-bottomed spiced chocolate crust and custardy French cruller toppings.
I have a hunch that some of you are afflicted with a very grave illness.
Perfect for a vegetarian Thanksgiving meal, these curried root vegetable pot pies are filled with rich spicy flavor and a cheesy vegetable filling, all encased in flaky buttery pie crust.
