‘Tis the season for soup…and all the things that get dunked in said soup! Although, I’m sure my fellow gluten-free people have noticed that all the great food for soup-dipping contains gluten. Sigh… Usually with tomato soup I go for a grilled cheese with GF bread for dunking, but wanted to change it up this […]

I drive home for my lunch hour every day for two reasons. 1. Most importantly, I go home to let my dogs outside and give the younger, and still crate-confined, pup a chance to run around before going back into the crate for the afternoon. Here they are after our exciting trip to the dog […]

This past Wednesday was National Cheese Day, so I obviously had to celebrate during my lunch hour. My first idea was to simply make a grilled cheese, but that’s no way to celebrate a holiday honoring the greatest food on the planet. I remembered I had some roma tomatoes and mozzarella left from a previous […]

On Saturdays I always feel the need to create a delicious, savory lunch from scratch since during the week I’m usually rushing to eat canned soup (Amy’s organic….delicious), or something of that nature. I hadn’t been to the store in a while so I had to work with the basic things I had on hand, […]

This dish makes a kickass breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I happened to whip it up for lunch, when I hadn’t been to the grocery store in way too long, and only had a few basic ingredients around. Turns out when combined, they are amazing! And healthy too 🙂 Ingredients Egg beaters/egg whites (I used 1 […]

We all know grilled cheese is awesome, just the way we had it as kids. But try these tips to make it MORE awesome, and you will never eat it plain again. If you are gluten-free like me, I recommend Udi’s white sandwich bread for grilled cheese. Note: do not combine all of these tips […]

I’m a quesadilla nut. I’m not sure why but something about the crispy tortilla and melty cheesy goodness just makes me drool…to the point where I used to make quesadillas for breakfast…and lunch…and dinner. Thankfully I’m out of that phase, but quesadillas are still a go-to quickie meal for me. The spinach and black beans […]

Lately I’ve been trying to make some foods in a Mexican style but with different ingredients. My favorite burrito of all time contains black beans, spinach, jack cheese, and fresh salsa. It is amazing, so I attempted to translate this burrito into a delicious nachos snack, and it was perfect! Tortilla Chips (I like Tostitos […]

I have fond memories of eating grilled cheese as a child, and it’s one food that I’ve never gotten sick of and probably never will. As an “adult” I’ve revamped the grilled cheese to be even more delicious. Because I made this for lunch in the middle of the week I did not pair it […]

After my run today I decided to whip up a quick, vegan, protein-filled lunch. I used a recipe found in PETA’s Vegan College Cookbook called “Dorm-room Ramen Delight.” True, I don’t live in a dorm room, but I’m still a poor college student and still love Ramen noodles. I added a cut-up Morningstar Farms spicy […]
