Re-watching Queer Eye Tears and back-to-basics meals Cookbook deadline, help! This is a haiku I wrote that I feel accurately depicts my life right now. (Thank you for supporting my artistic flair.)

Summer Squash Toasts with Sun-Dried Tomato White Bean Spread

If you’re reading this… I’m honeymooning on the beach in Mozambique. What’s new with your weird blog lady, you ask? I mean, where to begin??! Everything is magic, so let’s just hit the highlights. Last week, Logan and I bungee jumped over Victoria Falls. I wasn’t scared, and even though it looks extremely painful when…

Personal Broccoli Parm Frittata

As you may or may not know, yours truly did a stint in gay Paris from spring 2010 through fall 2011. The Parisian tenure was glorious and life changing overall (I went to Le Cordon Bleu! I became “La Fille Sans Tomates”! I started this blog! I met my roommate!), but the early days? Little…

Sup, friends? We survived the first few days of 2018!! How you feeling? I hope you’re keeping it together amidst NEW YEAR, NEW YOU madness (so intense) and not crying on Master Cleanse or sacrificing your firstborn child for a Peloton bike. Today is a very exciting day, and one of my favorite blog events…

Casual Friday: Chicken Sausage Breakfast Tacos

TGICasual Friday, party people!! You know the drill. First we talk food, then we waste time on the Internet. Let’s do this. Breakfast and tacos are two of my very favorite things, so breakfast tacos clearly bring me a shameless amount of joy. I’m not above simply rolling up some eggs and salsa in a…

Steak and Egg Sliders with Herbed Avocado Spread

I’m not really a breakfast sandwich person. I obviously enjoy them (I’m a human being), but they’re not necessarily something I make for myself or order at restaurants on the reg. At home, I’m proud to be a #basic smoothie/avocado toast devotee, and when I’m out, I tend to gravitate toward creative eggs or the…

5-Ingredient Skillet Eggs with Spinach and Roasted Cauliflower

The Dude Diet Tour is officially off to ze races, and I’m equal parts Logan-style psyched and (characteristically?) anxious. My anxiety has nothing to do with the upcoming events and appearances—you know I live for stranger hugs, microphones, and on cam-ah-rahhh opportunities—it’s 100% travel-related. I may or may not have mentioned this before, but… I…

Baked Eggs with Chicken Sausage, Quinoa and Salsa Verde

I do my best to keep things fresh around here. Knowing (and appreciating) that you take time out of your very busy and important schedules to come hang out, I really try to mix it up on the both the narrative and recipe fronts each week. Thank you and you’re welcome! I probably shouldn’t tell…

Fiesta Baked Eggs with Farro and Black Beans

When people find out that I’m a food blogger, they often turn to my roommate and say, “You’re so lucky! You must eat gourmet meals every night!” On these occasions, I put on my very best modest smile and say something like, “No, no, no. Of course not! During the week, I mostly just make…

Bacon Fried Rice with Broccoli and Wilted Greens

In the excitement leading up to my birthday, I always forget about what happens next: THE COMEDOWN. Far worse than the day after Christmas, birthday princess comedown is pretty horrific. Not only is there another whole year until my next birthday, but I’m also older, slightly puffier (due to excessive consumption of cake and champagne),…

"Shakshuka" Egg White Frittata with Turkey Sausage

I’m a pretty messy person. Sadly, messiness appears to be a familial trait, like fancy hoarding and being chronically late. Yes, it’s shameful, and I hate to think of the hovels that my family members would happily live in if left to their own devices, but I try not to let genetics get me down.…

Warm Spinach Salad with Bacon Vinaigrette and a Fried Egg

When I think about my shortcomings (which I try to do as little as possible), poor brunch ordering is definitely high on the list. It’s probably sandwiched somewhere between “hoarding” and “always forgets to buy toilet paper,” and like those, it’s a pretty serious issue. For some unknown reason, I tend to panic every time…

Avocado Toast with Spicy Maple Bacon and Scrambled Eggs

Today, I would like to share with you something that has recently changed my life for the better. It is something that has made me laugh, made me cry, and given me faith in the human spirit. It is a reality television show, and it is called Naked and Afraid. I was actually introduced to Naked…

Clean Out The Fridge Frittata

I moved into Logan’s apartment in the West Village a year and a half ago. So basically, I have wanted to move for a year and a half. It’s not that the apartment is terrible. In fact, it’s a pretty epic space for a single dude. For a couple? Not so much. (Especially when one…

Sweet Potato Hash with Chicken Sausage and Fried Eggs

I’ve wanted an assistant for as long as I can remember. When you ask most kids what they want to be when they grow up, they say something ridiculous like an astronaut, a fireman, or President of the United States. My answer? “I want to wear Prada and have several male assistants.” When people asked…

Le Croque Madame

I’m prone to hangovers, especially when there is wine involved. Therefore, I spent a large portion of my Parisian tenure (April 2010-November 2011) with a headache and mild nausea. You’ll be pleased to know that I’ve already outlined the section of my memoirs entitled “Hungover in Paris: That Shit Cray.” It’s probably going to be…

Quinoa Baked Eggs with Spinach and Pancetta

Monday was the worst day of my life. As a result, I was desperately in need of some comfort food yesterday, and Quinoa Baked Eggs with Spinach and Pancetta really hit the spot:         Okay okay, Monday wasn’t actually the worst day of my life. However, it did involve 15 hours of…

The Dude Diet: Breakfast Edition

This week I want to draw attention to breakfast, which until now has sadly been overlooked by The Dude Diet. We all know that breakfast is “the most important meal of the day,” but guys consistently manage to eff it up royally. I’ve been permanently scarred by the Pop-Tart scarfing, breakfast sando-crushing, bagel hoarding lifestyle…

Ultimate Breakfast Quesadilla

I’m not a morning person. This is pretty much how I feel every morning. I am more than aware that mornings are a strugglefest for most people, especially if you’ve been up late working or playing harder than you should have been. We all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day,…
