Chickpeas, pasta, and vegetables – 8/31/16
Wait, didn’t I just make this? Yes, but it is so delicious and vegan besides! Anyway, it has different vegetables in it so the taste is a little different. I could eat this every week and I guess I do!

August 17, 2016 – Lamb chops with grilled potato and asparagus
I find it really difficult to take an appetizing picture of meat. They always just look like brown blobs. Then add a darkly grilled potato and you have a pretty blah looking plate. I tried draping the asparagus around to … Continue reading
