November 7, 2016

We love this stir fry recipe in our house! It’s a fairly easy to make on a week night, and can really satisfy my craving for Thai take out.  The most time consuming part is chopping all of the vegetables, and it’s really not so bad…  The roasted cashews add a lot of flavor.  A LOT!  So don’t skip that step, it’s totally worth it, and really makes the dish.  Oh, and the…

Carrots with the greens still on

October 21, 2009

For some reason my kids love steamed carrots if the green part is still left on. It’s a total novelty for them. We got these carrots from our CSA farm and they were so tasty.  The other shot is of the rest of the dinner, a hodge podge of other veggies and tacos.
