YumSquash casserole. Fried squash is excellent, but if you want an easier, cheesier way to eat your yellow squash, I recommend a squash casserole!

simply the best
YumRoasted cauliflower with parmesan and thyme. Cauliflower stinks up our house just about as badly as Brussels sprouts, but I continue to make it. That must mean I like it a lot.

new and different! #giveaway
YumBanana ginger jam. I like banana bread as much as the next person. In fact, I've been known to buys bananas solely for that purpose rather than wait for some to go uneaten.

try it with ranch
YumBacon ranch pasta salad. Americans are unique in that they put ranch dressing on just about everything, isn't that true? I suspect folks in Greece or Switzerland aren't dousing their foods with it, but I could be wrong.

I make no excuses for my sweet tooth. Given the choice between dessert and just about any other food selection, I'll take dessert every time.

grains on the brain
YumBlueberry and wheat berry salad. If you had told me a few years ago that I'd become smitten with grain salads, I would've laughed in your face (as politely as possible).
