Roasted Potatoes

September 15, 2016 by ohyagood Leave a Comment

roasted_potatoes_loWelp. School has begun. We've all maintained our sanity and I'm LOVING my free time. By free I mean, it's chock full of the things I've been wanting to get done. House stuff like cleaning and organizing, appointments like the dentist (Yipeee!) and of course blogging. I have a long list of recipes I want to tackle so bare with me in the next few months. They might not feel very seasonal but whatever. I'm sure you'll still dig what I come up with. So, If you've been to my house in the last, oh, 6 months or I've made you dinner, you've probably gotten a taste of my roasted potatoes. I call them mine because I never read a recipe to make them, I just starting doing them and adding stuff and wah-la! I love how easy they are and how they go over so well with guests, even the wee young ones. The huge bonus, leftovers with eggs in the morning or whenever really. I've done this same recipe without the lemon zest on sweet potatoes and it turns out just as good. They go with just about everything too!

Dairy-Free Creamy Scrambled Eggs

February 2, 2016 by ohyagood 22 Comments

Creamy Scrambled EggsWe eat eggs every other day for breakfast. Somedays fried, some scrambled. It just depends what we have for leftovers and what we are in the mood for. A creamy rich scramble tastes so good on those chilly mornings when you may or may not have had too much to drink the night before and there’s no bacon to be had.

Hippy Dippy Chai

December 22, 2015 by ohyagood Leave a Comment

HippyDippyChaiSomedays you just want to drink something warm and fuzzy, or something that makes you warm and fuzzy. Heehee. I had told myself I was going to steer clear of beverages since I don’t think it’s my strong suit. However, this concoction came about by accident after craving a rich White Russian and it turned out so incredibly good. The seasonal Third Street Festivus Chai is key. I had tried it last year and fell in love right before it was gone from stores. I might have to buy a case before the holidays are over. All I want for Christmas is lots and lots of chai.

Hope everyone has a happy, healthy holiday!!

Bacon Spinach Quiche

November 20, 2015 by ohyagood 2 Comments

Bacon Spinach Quiche

Our family lives on eggs. We eat them about every other day for breakfast. They are packed with so many good nutrients and they keep me full all morning. Long gone are the days of cereal or peanut butter toast…shit! I haven’t thought about that in months. Peanut butter toast was my saving grace when I was pregnant AND when I was nursing. I would make it in the middle of the night when I was starving. Ugh.

Ok…back to the main event here.

Quiche takes far less work than you’d think. Plus, you can freeze it for later. Or another option is to do crust-less muffins which would cut cooking time to about 30 minutes versus 45. I used a dairy-free, gluten-free frozen crust from Wholly Wholesome purchased from Whole Foods. I let that thaw for 10 minutes and baked it for 10 minutes before adding the remaining ingredients.

This recipe is completely dairy and gluten free but for all you cheese-lovers, gruyere would be so lovely on this one.

Sweet Potato Hash

September 23, 2015 by ohyagood Leave a Comment

SweetPotHashBreakfast for dinner is a big hit in our house. I love it because I usually have everything I need to make it so it’s a quick go-to when I don’t have a plan. Like tonight, for instance.

I’ve made this for a few crowds even before eating paleo and it’s always been a hit. A few things I will note about this recipe, it’s way easier if you have a food processor or a Ninja Prep (which is like a a combination of a blender and processor), otherwise you’ll be grating potatoes for days.  Did every cook back in the day have carpal tunnel? Oh, it’s also fairly rich dish so I’d recommend pairing it with a salad, some fruit or a cold breakfast beer to balance out the heaviness.
