Ok, so this picture doesn’t look so appetizing, but believe me, this recipe is wonderful. I could probably have eaten all of it in one sitting it was so good. I made it the other night and served it for dinner with a big green salad. Yum! There is an incredible amount of flavor [...]
Much like the tomato pie I made the other day, this zucchini galette is really delicious, and much like other recipes that I love, I’ve made it twice already in the last week. I have extra summer squash from my CSA, so I might just make another one tomorrow. What is a galette you [...]

In my eternal quest to get my boys to eat/drink healthy things, I found this recipe for strawberry lemonade made without adding sugar to it. I typically cook with sugar. I never use artificial sweeteners. This is one of the first recipes I’ve tried that calls for agave nectar. I’ve had a bottle of [...]
