I made this the other day, it's awesome ( Read more... )

This morning I was trying to find the icepack for my lunch in the freezer and I discovered a cache of bananas that I'd forgotten about. I keep buying bananas and I'll usually eat most of them, but then I'll have one or two that get too brown so I'll toss them in the freezer before they go bad. Apparently I do this a lot, so I have a lot of frozen ( Read more... )

I didn't feel like eating leftovers this evening and was low on protein for the day. So I made a quick, light dinner with just four ingredients ( Read more... )

Today I was good and I packed a lunch (peanut butter and jam sandwich) and dinner (leftover gazpacho) but I was hungry by 9pm, and I didn't get home until almost midnight, so I figured it was ramen time ( Read more... )

My friend Konstantin has this salad that he's made a couple of times for potluck sorts of parties (or for us helping him and Erin move in). Supposedly it's a Russian summer salad. It's fairly simple but quite yummy salad that I think just involves cucumbers, tomatoes, dill and mayonnaise. Since I liked it so much, it seemed like a good idea to ( Read more... )

...which turns out sort of ok (possibly because I'm a weirdo ( Read more... )
