Shaun's off at a concert tonight, so I've just been foraging for dinner. I found a little arugula from last week's CSA box that I wanted to use, and I wanted to cook up an egg or two from this week's box as well, so I made this very ...

This recipe is via Ree, of The Pioneer Woman. I had a half pound of fresh baby carrots from last week's CSA box to use, and this was a good recipe to use 'em up. I scaled way down, of course - I only used about 1 tbsp ...

Tonight's dinner was Island Spiced Pork Tenderloin, from Annie's Eats, sauteed fava beans, and a quick green salad. The pork tenderloin was okay, but if I make it again, I'll cut down on the cinnamon. It just wasn't quite what I was wanting, but it certainly has potential. ...

Tonight's dinner was inspired by a Cooking Light recipe. I chose to use whole skinless boneless chicken thighs, and I also omitted the pasta and the cheese. This was a very good meal, and one that I'll repeat again. We both love mushrooms and chicken, and the ...

This was a decently tasty meal for me just winging it. I didn't like this teriyaki sauce as much as my usual version, but it wasn't bad. The peas were from my CSA box, and I steamed them for about 6 minutes to get them just crisp-tender. ...
