    Springtime Pasta with Peas

    April 27, 2015 by Lindsay Leave a Comment

    A quick and easy weeknight dinner, pasta with peas and white wine garlic cream sauce! This dish is completely customizable, feel free to use any green veggies you have on hand!

    So, you might have noticed that on this website we have a severe lack of recipes with little green peas.  

    Because I'm allergic to them and also I don't like them.  

    BUT, last weekend I went away for work, and before I left I wanted to make Jay some food.  I wanted to make him something that he doesn't get often, and I've been seeing recipes using fresh peas all over the place recently since it's an ingredient that is in season.  SO, I made a big batch of this super flavorful, simple pasta.  It takes MAYBE 20 minutes to make, and has crazy flavor.  

    And if you hate peas?  No worries.  You can skip them altogether or sub another green veg like chopped zucchini, asparagus tips, even some spinach stirred in right at the end!  The point is to use any veggies that you have and love, and go from there.

    Chocolate Avocado Pudding {vegan}

    April 23, 2015 by Lindsay 1 Comment

    So, I realized recently that we haven't done any new 1. desserts or 2. weird trials of foods that are annoyingly healthy and popular and trendy.  IMG_5902

    Weirdly, I am neither exceptionally healthy, popular, or trendy.  So, there's that.  

    So, I decided it was time!  I think that pudding is such a funny kid thing to eat, and I'll admit that every once in awhile I buy pudding cups - usually sugar free or the fancy grown up mousse stuff, but STILL.  Pudding cups.  Probably not necessary to be spending money on, OR good for the environment.  The use of avocado as a base for pudding has been around for years, and so I Googled and found a recipe from a blog I love, Two Peas and Their Pod.  Mainly I love the title?  Besides the pictures being way better than mine (sigh, I'm a work in progress), the recipe was easy and featured all ingredients that I had at home, which was good because I didn't feel like leaving the house.  

    So pudding happened!

    A Weekend in NYC (Part 2: Friday Night-Sunday)

    April 21, 2015 by Lindsay Leave a Comment

    So.  Onto the second part of our NYC trip!  20150416_191209-01

    After our epic trek on Friday morning/afternoon, we met our friend Dan who is from Greenville but lives in Hoboken.  We met him in the city for "a" (three) drink(s), then headed on the bus to Hoboken to see his wife and two gorgeous girls.  We LOVE these guys, and try to see them every year when we're in NYC and a few more times when they come to Greenville.  We want to be just like them when we grow up even though they're kind of the same age.

    Shrimp Stuffed Shells + Burst Tomato Sauce

    April 15, 2015 by Lindsay 1 Comment

    Ok, I'm over my bummy feeling about the rain.  IMG_5833

    Although, wouldn't ya know?  It's still raining.  The air is WET, and it's hot not but feels hot because it's so muggy, and I have one dog who just flat out refuses to go pee in the rain, so she's been holding it for over 12 hours.  Not my problem, and no, she won't go in the house.  Yet.  

    But even though it's rainy and nasty and we're SO CLOSE to New York, we still need to eat dinner.  And Wednesday just kind of screams spaghetti, don't you think?  I definitely think.  

    So we had a box of jumbo shells, and we had some shrimp, and Jay doesn't eat meat, and this was born.  It's kind of a cross between shrimp scampi (wait for the butter) and stuffed shells, and if you don't like dairy with seafood this is NOT the recipe for you.  But I happen to love dairy with all things, so I say screw the rules and give it a try.
