Zucchini season may be over, but we can usually find decent looking ones in the fall around here. Sorry for not eating exactly seasonally, but you know what is perfectly fall-appropriate? A big bowl of soup! And what perfectly accompanies a nice big bowl of soup? Zucchini fritters. So in a roundabout way, zucchini fritters... Continue Reading →
Turkish Red Lentil Soup
We haven't shared that many soup recipes on here, but soup probably makes up a good third of my diet. I love soup! This is just another reason why I was born to marry into a Turkish family. If you ever make it to Turkey (which I can't suggest more highly), you'll see that delicious... Continue Reading →
Zucchini & Feta Pie
This is such a perfect summer dinner! Zucchini is usually so large and beautiful in the summer. And if you or a family member has a garden, you know that it is abundant this time of year.

Couscous Salad
I don't know about y'all, but I feel like lunch is kind of a struggle meal. I want to have something that tastes good, is easy to make, is portable to work/school, is pretty healthy, and keeps me full until dinner. That's doable, but sometimes is just a little boring. Lunch just isn't an exciting... Continue Reading →
Mango Coconut Veggie Curry
I love pretty much any and all Asian foods and flavors. Thai-style curries are among my favorites. But disclaimer... I threw together this recipe myself.
