Brittany's PantryFettuccini W/Sausage & Bell Peppers
As I look at this picture above, I can’t help but smile. Yes, it is a pile of saucy pasta with spicy sausage and fresh, sweet bell peppers (read: plate full of goodness) but that isn’t the reason for the grin stretching across my face. Ok. Fine. It is a part of…
Simple Beef Stew
The weather here has finally turned a bit chilly (woohoo!) so comfort food is what I’m all about. I am sitting on my couch as I type this and Eli, my four year old, is sitting at my feet and going through the ToysRUs catalog that came in the mail today. He…
Sour Apple Coleslaw
In general and on the whole, I am not a huge coleslaw fan. I think it is the cabbage that gets me; the bitterness of it. We never ate it all that much when I was a kid and if I came across it at a social event (i.e. potluck, family reunion,…
Instant Veggie Dip: Back To School Post #8
I came across this recipe via 100 Days Of Real Food and even though I have a reliable ranch dressing recipe that I use, I liked the flavors and thickness of this one for dip. The fact that it is a spice mix that you make ahead is extremely appealing to me. Just…
Sweet & Spicy Shrimp
I am pausing in the middle of my Back To School Series and my self proclaimed honey phase, to post this recipe. We have ben devouring it at our house. And I do mean devour, with no conversation and just the sounds of lips smacking and forks hitting the plates echoing off…
Carrot & Ginger Rice W/Lime
A year or two ago, a good friend of mine told me that even though she cooked all kinds of recipes from this blog, she spent the most time finding side dishes and new ways to cook vegetables than anything else. This was kind of interesting to me and I thought about…
Peanut Noodles
When it comes right down to it, the fact that this dish has a no-cook sauce and that I can make it entirely in the blender…well…that is really what drew me to it originally. After I made it once, it was the flavor that drew me in. The second time I made…
Creamy Tomato Soup
So. If you are a regular reader of Brittany’s Pantry, you know that I am not the biggest fan of soup. My husband and kids? Yes. Me? No. Unless it is ice cream, I would rather eat meals that require a fork. However, if you know that about me, you also know…
Pomegranate Glazed Carrots
I generally think of carrots as a kind of perfect side dish. Aren’t they a kind of super hero in the culinary world? When they showed up as an ingredient on Iron Chef America, people cheered! Hooray! A familiar food that you can do…ANYTHING with!! With the exception of cooking them until…
Pork & Prune Stew
Whenever I come across this recipe I think of Fall. It is exactly the kind of dish to warm you up after a long day of raking leaves, picking apples, running around a pumpkin patch, or just plain spending time outdoors bundled against the cold. It is warm and hearty with an…
Gluten Free Apple Carrot Muffins
Sometimes, recipes just surprise you. I had no idea I was going to love these so much. I had no idea that I would end up completely redoing these muffins over five different batches. I had no clue that I would grow kind of addicted to the texture of almond flour. I…
Hobo Dinners
I am going to try to explain how happy this post makes me. This meal, a Hobo Dinner, is the kind of thing that will make your wallet happy (you can easily feed four people for less than 5 bucks), will keep your house cool when the temperature rises, and will break…
Asian Turkey Lettuce Wraps
So here I am sitting at the computer, ready to fill this blank page with what I hope you all see as witty and inspiring words to encourage all of you to get in your kitchens and cook. Well…maybe not witty, but hopefully inspiring… Yup! My kids are occupied watching a movie-The…
Beef Bourguignon: Just call me Julia…
I’m back! After a quick and brief hiatus which included but was not limited to doctors appointments, way too many trips to the pharmacy to get prescriptions after said appointments, an unexpected trip to mourn the passing of a friend, and really just general exhaustion, I am back on track and in the…
The BEST Carrot Cake EVER!!
In the interest of mixing up the sweet and savory recipes from my Christmas dinner menu, I will save the potato gratin recipe for the next post. So we are jumping ahead to dessert for today, and ooooooh MAN! What a dessert it is! Maybe not exactly the kind of holiday dessert…
