Yogurt's Pumpkin Pie Yoda

It ain't green but it's Yogurt and really, Yogurt > Yoda every day of the week, fight me.

... and may the schwartz be with you!



Yogurt's Pumpkin Pie Yoda

Ingredients
6 oz plain, unsweetened yogurt ---> 18 oz tripled
1/4 cup plain pumpkin puree ---> 3/4 cup tripled
1/4 tsp cinnamon ---> 3/4 tsp tripled
1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice* 3/4 tsp ---> tripled
1 Tbsp maple syrup ---> 3 Tbsp tripled

Instructions
  1. Combine all of the above.
  2. Whisk to combine.

Yeah, that's really it.   A few items of interest:
  • This recipe makes two servings.
  • I use a yogurt maker and make my own yogurt.  It's freakin' awesome.  Much nicer for the environment, too, since we're buying far fewer plastic yogurt containers, while still eating a tonne of yogurt.
  • I can triple this recipe and get it all to fit into an old yogurt container, which means I don't have to measure every time, and at the end of a work day bookended by a bike commute?  That's awesome.
  • Our favorite additives are walnuts and dried cranberries.  So tasty. 
  • Space Balls is hilarious on its own, but after you've seen Star Wars, it's unbearably hilarious.  Why had I seen Space Balls twice before I saw the original trilogy?  Truly a mystery for the ages.

* Make your own pumpkin pie spice by combining:
4 Tbsp ground cinnamon
2 Tbsp ground ginger
1 Tbsp ground cloves
1.5 tsp ground nutmeg

Pesto Pizza Monkey Bread

This recipe has been almost entirely copied from this amazing site , but I'm putting it here because a) things have a tendency to disappear off the internet, and b) I made a few modifications, and since the outcome was so unbearably tasty, I'd like to have a record of what I did so I can do it again. This recipe is not good for you . This is one of those recipes that's all "you bike 60+ miles a week and eat fresh veggies all the time, so you can probably survive this." It's really worth it. Which is good, because I'm going to need  to make this recipe, probably more than a few times a year. I'll say it makes 8 servings, but they're large servings. It'd make an excellent snack for guests (we're thinking it'll be nice to make when my mother-in-law visits, for example, because after the long train-ride, she always wants to just eat a little something and drink until she forgets how many hours she's spent on a train) but it also mad

Roasted Layered Veggie Awesome

I honestly don't recall what led me to  this recipe , originally, though I suspect it was either a) Buzzfeed or b) "I want chickpeas and sweet potatoes, let's see what recipes the internet has to offer me in that arena." Either way, I made this dish for the first time on a night I was too tired to cook, and it was terribly good to me, taking only about 10 minutes of effort and providing a really, really tasty meal. ... one which just needed a few little edits to make it purely awesome. Layered awesome. Layered roasted awesome. Made of veggies. (I'm tired and uncreative tonight, lemme alone.) PS If I have to scroll past like 50 photos and a bunch of rambling to get to your recipe, you're probably doing it wrong. I'm here for the food, not for your blogging. Ugh. Anyway. Roasted Layered Veggie Awesome Ingredients 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled, halved lengthwise, and cut into 1/2" chunks 1 tbsp olive oil 1/4 tsp red chili flakes 15 oz

Pescatarian Surf 'n Turf

In case it's not been made ABUNDANTLY clear, I am 100% in love with my veggie noodle spiralizer , which was initially an impulse buy that I regretted so much that I ignored it for ... six months? before trying it out. Yes, I am regretting those six months, why do you ask. Anywhatsit, I've used the thing like six times in the past three days and have absolutely no intention of stopping any time soon. It's like I'm able to eat food again, but without all the bloating and sluggishness that usually comes with pasta. It's liberating. I am in love. This is THE PERFECT summer dish to prepare on a work-night because it takes very little actual active time to make, giving you plenty of time to shower and stuff. Oh, and it's not hot and heavy (*sner*) so it's good to eat when the outdoors is trying to act like an oven. Give it a go! Pescatarian Surf 'n Turf Ingredients 2 tbsp soy sauce 1 tbsp minced garlic (1 clove) 2 tsp minced ginger 1 tbsp rice v
