Looking for interesting ways to eat food that won't make me sick
This is a follow up to my earlier post. Mushrooms First I tried the mushrooms chopped up with quinoa and vegetables. It was alright but I feel like the mushroom taste kind of overpowered everything and was just too much. I think it needed something acidic, or maybe something creamy, which I can't have at...

I was once again limited in some ways by what the grocery store had in stock, though it was definitely better than the last time we went shopping when we had to go to two different stores to find what we needed. We are now good on food for another two weeks! I wasn't necessarily... Continue Reading →
This is a follow up to my earlier post. Green Beans I read that you can roast green beans in the oven and make them crispy so that they are like french fries. I did not expect them to taste exactly like fries, but I did expect them to get crispy and they did not.... Continue Reading →
These were not the vegetables I was planning to buy this week. I knew that the grocery stores were a little nuts but I thought I had come up with a very smart plan. I decided we would shop at Sprouts (a farmers market type grocery store), because we mostly needed fruit and vegetables anyway,... Continue Reading →
This is a follow up to my earlier post which can be found here. Sweet Potato So, I think I really just don't like sweet potato. I cut it up and roasted it in the oven and, like I have always thought, it is just far too sweet. So sweet that it's sickly. It's not... Continue Reading →
I recently got an enameled cast iron Dutch oven. The instructions say not to heat it empty, which is something many bread recipes call for. Further research told me that sudden temperature changes can also be bad for the longevity of the enamel, and I came across people suggesting that the bread should go into... Continue Reading →
I'm not sure whether I had ever eaten miso before this week. I thought I would like to try it since fermented products are supposed to be good for you, specifically for your gut. So I bought a tub of miso paste and used it twice this week. I forgot to take photos of both... Continue Reading →
I think that homemade stock is far better than the stuff you buy, but I don't really have the freezer space to store it. We get most of our meat from Costco and that tends to fill up the freezer pretty quickly, along with whatever bread I've been baking. This week though, I made a... Continue Reading →
For my very first time roasting a whole chicken, I did some research and decided on my method. Since my smoke detector goes nuts at the faintest sign of smoke, I decided not to go with a cast iron skillet, even though that is a method I would really like to try. It just seems... Continue Reading →
Most weeks I will probably just pick one vegetable to try to enjoy eating, but this week I picked three. I was hesitant as to whether to include the zucchini in this post since I plan on hiding it, but I may not use it all in that manner so maybe I will try it... Continue Reading →
