What I Love vs. What I Eat, vol. 6.1: MOAR BISCUITS

Posted on September 8, 2011 by Andrea

Wheeee! I made more biscuits! And I totally confirmed my suspicion that the coconut flour (and prevalent coconut flavor) can be pushed in one direction (sweet and delicious!) or another (coconut, what?!) depending on the additional ingredient combinations. Here’s your starting point. For savory biscuits, I swapped out the coconut oil for unsalted butter, removed [...]

What I Love vs. What I Eat, Vol. 5: “Toastless” French Toast

Posted on July 22, 2011 by Andrea

(For more on this once-and-future series, see this post. Or find all the harebrained episodes via tag in the sidebar.) It’s a new dawn of eating and food preparation in our household.

What I Love vs. What I Eat, Vol. 4: Fish Tacos & Tomatilla Salsa

Posted on June 28, 2011 by Andrea

(For more on this once-and-future series, see this post. Or find all the harebrained episodes via tag in the sidebar.) I love fish tacos. My friends love fish tacos.

What I Love vs. What I Eat, vol. 2: Kale Chips

Posted on March 29, 2011 by Andrea

(For more on this once-and-future series, see this post.) I enjoy snacking. Usually lightly salty, though I’m picky in this like all else. One of my favorite things in the world is a really really good, fresh salsa (preferably homemade) with tortilla chips (preferably homemade). I can eat buckets of salsa, which is not actually [...]

What I Love vs. What I Eat, vol. 1: Buffalo Blue Cheese

Posted on February 19, 2011 by Andrea

I love food. Duh. And food loves me. Duh. (Especially my hips, thighs and tummy.) So as I re-evaluate, re-establish and re-structure my eating habits, I’m finding ways to enjoy some of what I love without completely going off the deep end. I cook with fresh, whole ingredients so I certainly don’t  like the idea [...]
