Needless to say Girl Scout cookie season is a lot less exciting when you can’t have gluten. You feel a little bit guilty walking past the 10-year old girls trying to get you to overpay for charity while secretly wishing you could have some Thin Mints or Samoas. Last year I made these gluten-free thin…

Scrambled Tofu
This recipe is an oldie but a goodie. If I had to recommend one dish for someone who wants to eat less animal products it would be scrambled tofu. It looks just like eggs and you can really flavor it however you like. Not to mention it only takes about 10 minutes from start to…
Egg-Battered Tofu
I have three roommates now and I’m pretty sure all of them would make a better food blogger than me. Every week one of them is making a recipe from Pinterest and the kitchen constantly smells amazing; I’m in awe and usually a little jealous on the days I eat cereal and yogurt for dinner….
Easy Polenta And Eggs
Real Italians look away; this recipe definitely isn’t for you. Otherwise keep reading. Now that it’s getting darker earlier and earlier I can’t help but be lazier when it comes to cooking meals. I’ve been looking for simpler things I can throw together in 10 minutes or so that still pack a lot of flavor….
Reese’s Mini Peanut Butter Cookies
Reese’s have always been my favorite candy for as long as I can remember. They were always the hottest items on Halloween. Their new minis unrwapped peanut butter cups seemed like the perfect candies to bake with—the perfect size and no fussy wrappers. Obviously a peanut butter and chocolate candy deserves a peanut butter cookie….
Tri-Pepper Quinoa
The easiest place to get inspired for recipes is the grocery store. Just going to the produce section and seeing the huge displays of vibrantly colored fruits and vegetables makes you want to eat that much more. My grocery store had a display of different colored peppers and I knew I wanted to use them…
My Favorite Store-Bought Sauces
The food bloggers who cook everyday and love making time-consuming sauces and stews amaze me. I’m nothing like that. Sure, I like making desserts and even occasionally a dinner or two, but a lot of the time I have no problem phoning in meals. Cereal and yogurt for dinner is more than fine with me….
Guacamole Giveaway
Concord Foods and Brooks Tropicals are having a promotion and they want you to be a part of it. From now until the end of September you can enter the Simple Math Guacamole sweepstakes to win cash or guacamole prizes. They also gave me the chance to try out their simple math guacamole as well…
Caramelized Onion and Balsamic Vinegar Bean Salad
I really love baked beans. Who doesn’t? What I don’t love is spending hours cooking them in a hot kitchen when it’s already 80 degrees outside. Why can’t people appreciate baked beans more in the winter when we’re all freezing? It’s a mystery. Last week on the 4th I needed a vegetarian dish that could…
Almond Puppy Chow
One of my favorite Trader Joe’s products is their chocolate covered almonds; once I start eating those, it’s hard to stop. Chocolate and almonds just go so well together. Just as good are their chocolate covered almonds with sea salt and tubinado sugar. Again, there’s no way you can have just one handful. I’ve tried…
