mr. miles everett first off, as you can see, i have not been contributing to my poor deprived blog. the last post was in april, which was when i found out i was pregnant with my first baby. a couple things were going on then: 1) i was too nauseous to even think about food (being pregnant is NOT a foodie's friend in the first trimester), then 2) when i finally got my appetite back, all i wanted was take out. i probably won't have time in the new year with a new baby, but i will try to post something at least once a month because blogging about food makes me happy and one of resolutions is to cook more. don't be surprised, however, if my next post are lactation cookies or baby food. anyway…on with my comeback... i found saw this recipe in the november issue of real simple and knew i wanted to make it. i assumed it was something that can be whipped up in a couple hours, but then quickly realized that it was a slow cooker recipe, which would take 8 hours of cooking t...

happy halloween! i know i've already provided a stuffed pepper recipe, but i think i found one that is even more amazing! last year i made fun jack-o-lantern stuffed peppers that were super spicy, but i loved the idea for halloween. so, i really wanted to share this sweet little treat for your future halloween festivities. any stuffed bell pepper recipe will do, but i am really in love with the one i found tonight. not only is it super healthy, but anyone would enjoy its simplicity. also, these are supposed to be grilled, but i ended using my gas stove to char and soften the bell pepper. also, i would've chosen yellow or orange peppers, but there weren't any...maybe there were more people who had the bright idea to make these pumpkin-lookalike treats for halloween.

if you had told me six months ago that i would have a serious love affair with tomatoes, i would've thrown up a little in my mouth. i did NOT like tomatoes on their own, at all. but when they say your palette changes every seven years, they are absolutely right! and i'm happy they are. i never knew how robust the flavors can be and how fun they are with just a little bit of salt and pepper. as the new year starts, i've been making sure to stay health-conscious and finding foods that are fresh and making them on my own. other than the awesomeness of the tomatoes here, i think that simplicity is key. it says tomato sauce, but it's very light and more olive oil with little bits of roasted tomatoes.
