Do you know what I want more than anything in the world? I want there to be some kind of robot that will just follow me and my two girls around and continuously clean up after us. It seems that my entire day is spent cooking, feeding, and cleaning. And at the end of the…

How to: Quickie Meal – Mexican Street Corn Quesadillas
Quesadillas were one of the first meals I learned how to cook. They were simple, required minimal ingredients and they involved cheese. SOLD.

How To: Quickie Meal – Chicken Meatball Banh Mi Bowls
We already have a delicious banh mi recipe on the blog. It’s of the more traditional sandwich variety, but untraditional in that it features tofu instead of meat. If you haven’t made it, you should.

How To: Quickie Meal – Pasta with Garlic, Red Pepper Flakes and Broccoli Rabe
When it comes to taking care of household chores we all have our roles. I take care of the cooking, he takes care of the garbage, we both share day to day clean up and laundry duties. I think we have a pretty good groove going. And sometimes, we both step out of our chore…
