Falafel salad and beet hummus
Occasionally we like to go to my boyfriend’s mom’s house and cook a meal together, taking advantage of her lovely garden and bountiful lemon tree. Today I suggested we take on a kinda-Greek theme–hummus, falafel, all that. I like having an excuse to plan a menu outside the usual weeknight dinner. To keep it simple,…
Veggie pasta with chickpeas
It’s the weekend, and I’m at the end of my weekly stash of vegetables. So what’s for lunch?

Super-green pesto pizza and rainbow salad
I’ve been meaning to make Isa’s green lasagna for a while now, but I’m short on lasagna noodles today. I do, however, have a bag of whole wheat pizza dough–for everything I’ll make from scratch like it’s no big deal, I can’t be bothered with anything yeasty–and figured the same ingredients would do well in…
Putting one giant zucchini to good use… Savory zucchini bread and pureed zucchini brownies.
Serious question: what am I going to do with all this grated zucchini? Thinking some kind of savory quick bread…
