I love cooking and I love writing. I started a food blog a few years ago, but I quickly lost interest after I took a new job where I was on the computer all day long. I didn’t want to come home and have to write a blog everyday. Not only that, but taking photos of food is hard. …
Quick and Easy Sweet Potato Mash
Hi there! When I was growing up, my food level was very plain Jane. We didn’t eat a lot of “weird” foods or spices. It was a lot of meat, potatoes, pastas… So when I started dating my husband, his family really opened my eyes to all these amazing foods that I was missing out on! One of those things …
Wacky Cake
Today’s recipe comes from my mom’s recipe book. This recipe has been in my family forever. I really hope it’s not a “secret family recipe” because I’m about to tell all of you! This is sort of like a mix between a brownie and a cake. It’s not too sweet, there’s no frosting, but it is so light and moist. …
Parmesan Baked Potato Wedges
Since I’ve been pregnant, I love carbs! Bagels, bread, pasta, and potatoes! I seriously can’t get enough! I saw this recipe and NEEDED to make these! And they were AH-MAZING. Seriously. So good. We almost ate them all before I could take a photo! They go perfect with ranch for dipping. My husband also liked them with ketchup and BBQ …

My mom claimed it lived to …
Vegetarian Homemade Mexican Pizza
My husband and I used to love Taco Bell. In a very seriously gross way. Lots of memories from our early relationship involve Taco Bell. I’m pretty sure there was an entire summer that I ate it everyday… No joke. Then we grew up and realized how unhealthy fast food is for us, so we stopped eating it. But every …
Black Bean and Corn (Loaded) Baked Potatoes
This is one of the first meals I started making when were transitioning to being vegetarian. It’s so easy, delicious, and filling! It makes great leftovers too! Ingredients: (This made enough for 2 people with extra “insides” left over) 2 medium Russet potatoes (could use sweet potatoes) olive oil salt 1 onion garlic powder (I forgot to measure! Just shake …
Guacamole
I was under the impression that I hated guacamole… I’m not that big of a fan of avocados. However, when I tried this recipe that one of my good friends made, I fell in love! I have tweaked it a bit and you should too! Peel and seed avocados. Then mash. This is much easier if you do it before you …
