There's this restaurant in Columbus called Marcella's that has the most delicious Apple salad ever: mixed greens, tart apples, red grapes, walnuts, gorgonzola cheese, and topped with a sherry wine vinaigrette. I'm a lover of salads in general but restaurant salads scare me - they're so... overloaded with crap. Not to mention the fact that some salads are as bad for you as a burger. But this one was the perfect balance of being fairly light and flavorful.

Sunday is normally our grocery shopping day, but I'm putting it off as long as I possibly can this week. We have a LOT of food in our house. Plenty of food to feed us for the week, if not even maybe two weeks if I'm creative. I really want us to use up some of our food that has been sitting on the shelves, so this recipe came as an attempt to throw something together with what we have. Which ended up being perfect because we had pretty much everything on hand!

I warned you that I'm lazy about fixing dinner, didn't I??
No new recipes have been cooked up since the last post. I can't tell if I'm just lacking inspiration or we're too busy or both. It really doesn't help that I'm having to readjust my cooking. I'm so used to cooking for 3 very hungry boys in the house and I'm having a hard time readjusting to normal sized portions.
So. Got a recipe you think we should try? Send it our way!

We hit a wall this weekend. It was getting late and we could not think of something to fix for dinner. We really did not want to go out and buy something, but nothing in the house sounded good. I went to the web to find some ideas, but still nothing caught my attention. That’s when it came to me…make something up.
I was thinking about what we had around the kitchen that needed used. We had open bacon (the turkey variety), green peppers and tomatoes fresh from the garden, and some chicken breast that was thawed. It dawned on me that I could use those ingredients to make light pasta, similar to something you would get in a restaurant.

We've had cucumbers out of the garden the last few weeks and our tomatoes are finally starting to turn red! So its a perfect time for a garden harvest veggie salad!

Mmmm. Italian food on a bun.
We're fans of parmesan chicken. Well, Sean is anyway - I prefer eggplant. With lots of cheese. (To be honest, I'm not much of a meat-eater... I prefer vegetarian foods. But given my lazy nature when it comes to cooking and the fact that I'm generally outnumbered 2:1... making an effort to cook for two different types of dinners in one night is just not going happen! I try to eat as much vegetarian foods for my lunches or when we go out to eat instead. Small sacrifices...)

So, here we are. The beginning of this joint blogging adventure into food. We're already married and running a business together, so this won't be much different, right?
