Veggie Burgers + Sweet Potato Fries

While Meghan with an “h” is all about that bass, I’m all about these veggie burgers. So much so that I made them twice in one week. I’m also all about that food processor for making these THAAAAT much easier. No meat. No treble. No problem. Sometimes veggie burgers are full of fake things, but these ones are real from the bottom to the top. Nothing weird just normal ingredients hanging out at your house.…

Homemade Hani O’clock

I love Hanis. I just really do! Go get one from National Coney Island with a coney dog for dessert! Oh! And fries. Definitely, fries. Better yet, make one at home! And the lettuce and tomato makes this sandwich kinda Christmas-y, wouldn’t you say? Anyhow, these are made on fluffy pita bread (like naan!) and are made with swiss and American cheese. I went the swiss and brie route though and it totally tastes similar! Brie melts similarly…

Lovely Lady Lunch (check it out)

On Saturday Cindy and I threw a lady picnic party in my backyard. You see, last summer my parents visited and we painted my picnic table Mint Majesty. It’s been begging for a party ever since. We planned the menu months ago! We agree that cheese and crackers are always necessary (and caper berries!). In order to make the cheese a bit more ladylike we dressed it up like cake. I’m now officially crazy about gorgonzola,…

Strawberry, Rhubarb, & Brie Pop Tarts

The fact that I can find rhubarb is a major spring clue. You see the constant chilly wind and rain that’s been happening in the mitten is making it feel much more like early fall than bike-riding, ice cream-eating, patio beer, weather. But, rhubarb gives me hope. So yesterday, I opened my windows and made these mini pop tarts in an attempt to get spring to hurry up and get here! If you’re feeling casual,…

Roasted Mushroom and Brie Omelets

Brie melts when you look at it! It’s just a super sensitive cheese, ya know? And it pairs with roasted crispy vinegar-y mushrooms like you wouldn’t believe. All I’m saying is, make this omelet right away. Have it for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, whenever, but mostly just make it. Take one bite and put your hands over your heart in an “I’d marry this omelet if it was the commitment type,” way. It’s ok to…

Breakfast Grilled Cheese: Brie, Jam, and Chocolate Chunk Egg Bread

My favorite day is Sunday because lately it involves a good breakfast, bike-riding, and beers. Yesterday this was the breakfast that got my day going. It was a good start to a day full of sunshine. And I think I’m tan! … and by tan I mean kinda freckled. I want you guys to know something. I want you to know that nobody feels like the third wheel in this breakfast. Strawberry jam, brie, and…

Christmas 2011 – A Recap

I hope you all the best holiday! We ate tasty-goodness, as is our tradition. We wrote out the menu for our feast Christmas Eve. It involved breakfast, daytime snacking, and a big dinner. I made us sweet and savory crepes for breakfast. Half with strawberry jam, strawberries, and brie, and the rest were filled with crispy proscuitto, gruyere, and spinach. I’m the sweetie to Jake’s savory. We’re a food ying-yang. I pick dessert and he picks…

Katie’s Crepes {Dinner + Dessert}

Last night I made dinner for my very best friend, Katie. Let me tell you a little bit about why we are friends. We are the kind of girls that love crepes for dinner with Magic Hat #9. We require coffee. Always. Morning and night. Don’t judge us. We mutually love brownies, puppies and Lady GaGa. We are both jealous of Zoey Deschanel’s bangs. We have the same birthday, exactly one year apart. We both…
