Peanut Butter Chocolate Chickpea Bars
I almost called these “Unbelievable Bars” because I was completely caught off guard when I realized that they were not only edible, but actually freaking delicious. They get this crackly, brownie-like crust on the top and bottom after baking, but stay extremely moist and almost fudgy in the center, sort of like the texture of…
Slow Cooker Indian-Spiced Lentils
Since moving, I’ve learned that there’s a fat chance of finding decent takeout in this town. The pizza place a half-block away only serves edible food if “the old guy” is working. The Chinese in the same plaza is garbage. There was a good Chinese place about a mile down the road, but in a…

Rosemary Olive Oil Crock Pot Bread, Take 2! Plus a recipe for Olive Oil Herb Dip
As I write this post, there is a photo over on the right-hand side of the blog, staring me in the face, right down into the depths of my soul. It’s a photo that I am totally not proud of in any way, shape or form. It’s a photo that I have GOT to get…
Thai Coconut Curry Butternut Squash Soup
Usually I’m pretty convinced that “make it in the slow cooker” is all I have to say in order to turn some heads around here, but it tends to take a lot more to coerce James and Mike into trying a recipe without ruling it out before they take a bite. Include anything that even…
Black Bean Burgers with Chipotle Lime Tahini and Crunchy Guacamole
I can’t decide whether to tell you guys about these Black Bean Burgers with Chipotle Lime Tahini and Crunchy Guacamole first, or if I should tell you about the bear. Should I go with the bear story? I’ll go with the bear story. So, a bit of background: I really love animals, especially when I…
