Processing (Chocolate Cobbler in the Crock Pot)

I’ve been quiet. I haven’t really had much to say, really. I put up my most recent entry two months ago and since then, I have survived another incredibly busy SXSW, started a temp proofreading/copyediting job, applied for jobs and fellowships, traveled to Boston for a conference, finished out the semester (probably my last at [...]

Slow Cooker Spinach and Black Bean Enchiladas

Oh, this life as a food writer (and as someone who is surrounded by other food writers/bloggers and lovers of food) is wearing on me. And by “wearing on me,” I mean “I have to log 15-20 miles per week running or on the elliptical in order to fit into what few items of clothing [...]

Meal plan, May 15-21

Oh hey! Here’s a meal plan for the first time in months! I’ve been remiss in blogging, yes, and in making a weekly meal plan.

Aloo gobi in the crockpot

This week has been hectic.

Menu plan: January 17-23

It’s cookbook week! I’ve decided to plan this week’s menu from my cookbook archives, especially since I have some that I’ve barely used! However, tragedy has struck! I just got back from this week’s shop (done a day late because I was out of town) and left my menu plan at the grocery store. D’oh! [...]

Chicken Delicioso

This is quite possibly the easiest dinner you will ever make for your family. This week is crazy bananas busy for me, so I planned the menu accordingly. Here are your ingredients, plus a pound or so (I used 1.75 lbs because my chicken was an impenetrable frozen-solid chunk) of chicken breast, frozen, and a [...]
