I love making these cute Mini Baked Plantain Frittatas with the kiddoes. They (the frittatas, not the kiddoes) are quick and easy to make and simply involve whisking eggs along with leftover plantains, chives and spring onion before baking them. The kids also have a lot of fun throwing in whatever leftovers they find in the fridge. For a grown-up version, add in some chilli sauce. When is the best time to serve a plantain frittata?...

Taylor’s obsession with beets has ultimately lead us here. To beet ice cream. You had to be expecting it, right?

Jeni’s opened up a Nashville shop recently, and while I’ve only been once, I am still thinking about that cherry and goat cheese ice cream (and will likely be attempting it myself very soon!...

I love Swiss chard. The bunches of “bright lights” we’ve got growing in a pot outside aren’t doing so hot (not sure what would cause chard to stop growing but it’s been “not quite big enough” for the past month or so.) Luckily for us our CSA came through, giving us an abundance of swiss chard. What I like most about it is the depth of flavor. It’s earthier, richer than spinach....

Why, I do declare, this is the prettiest dinner we’ve made all year. But unlike other superficial dishes whose beauty is disappointing, this one actually tasted as good as it looked. Better even. I think I might start using black rice in everything from now on, if only to gaze lovingly at the deep purple grains that contrast so beautifully with their surroundings. It’s mild and nutty, not unlike brown rice in terms of flavor, texture, and nutritional value....
