Easy Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms

stuffed portobello mushrooms

I've fallen into a rut of cooking whatever is easiest, which usually means a vegetable curry with steamed rice. Last week, Ge Ge had had enough. "Mom, you're officially on a curry read more

Cauliflower Cheese Recipe (Cauliflower Gratin)

cauliflower cheese cauliflower gratin

After weeks of mild winter, the cold has finally descended on London. In a cruel twist of fate, yesterday the zipper on my puffer coat also popped off. It was a not-so-subtle message from up above that I have perhaps overdone it a smidge with the Christmas feasting. I shook my fist at the sky, read more

  • Tonight’s dinner was a slow braised @fieldsofathenryfarmva pork shank with sautéed spinach over Geechie Boy grits, all drizzled with a porky reduction. This all paired well with a pre-dinner cocktail, a grapefruit and cinnamon Winter in Paradise from @cocktailcourier. My family said that it’s been too long since I blogged and I need to return to it post haste. . . . . . . #food #nomnomnom #thatsdarling #thehappynow #thekitchn #instayum #instafood #igfoodie #f52grams #chefmode #instapic #droolclub #bhgfood #goodeats #eatfamous #hungry #foodgasm #honestcooking #foodgawker #foodgram #foodstagram #eatstagram #foodshare #dinnerparty #foodie #foodblog #eeeeeats #yum #slowfood #southernfoodwaysalliance
  • The earnestness of my 10 year old continues to kill me. During the distance learning and the lockdown he started a club among neighborhood kids called Forest Patrol to be on the lookout for wildlife and to keep the ‘hood clean. I introduced him @customink for making club shirts, and they arrived today. The club is raising money to pay for shirts; keep your eyes peeled for a doe-eyed boy who may be making the rounds near you offering to pick up rubbish in your yard! . . . . . #wowintheworld #tshirtdesign #kidlife #lifeinlockdown #socialdistancing #savetheplanet #earthday #kidsofinstagram #kidsactivities
  • Cherry blossoms at peak bloom in our Capitol! This year, traffic is still restricted and @cherryblossfest is virtual, but it was still liberating to be outside with my family to do something that felt relatively “normal.” Our country is so beautiful. . . . . . #wdc #washingtondc #spring #springbreak #cherryblossom #sakura #touristinmyowncity #washingtondccherryblossoms #capitol #usa #nature #naturephotography #instagood #instadaily #instalove #photooftheday #naturelover #outside #photogram
  • Friday night and it’s the first week that I’ve felt really like myself since my accident. Thank you all for your well wishes! I’m back to puttering in the kitchen, putting finishing touches on a whole wheat naan recipe I will someday post on the blog when my brain is not clouded by pandemic thoughts. These naan hugged some tandoori grilled chicken, zucchini and eggplant for a stack of juicy charred goodness. I’M BACK, GUYS. I AM BACK. . . . . #food #nomnomnom #thatsdarling #thehappynow #thekitchn #instayum #instafood #igfoodie #f52grams #chefmode #instapic #droolclub #bhgfood #goodeats #eatfamous #hungry #foodgasm #honestcooking
