I started experimenting with jam last winter when I started reading an awesome blog called Food in Jars. If you have any interest in canning, or just want to see some cool recipes, definitely check it out. Unfortunately I don’t really have space to actually can and store anything, so I stick with refrigerator jams.

Whole Grain Blueberry Breakfast Scones

Peach-Mango-Ginger Soup
I’m a big fan of cold fruit soups, but good fresh fruit isn’t really available in the winter. While frozen fruit will never be as good as fresh, flash frozen fruit is actually a pretty good substitute. I’ve done a lot of cold berry soups, so this time I opted for peach and mango, with […]
New Beginnings & Gluten-Free Cinnamon Raisin Boule

Salad from the Pantry: Ginger-Shitake Soup Stock
**This post is part of a month-long series as I participate in the Salad as a Meal Challenge. If you’ve never made your own stock, you are really missing out. It really isn’t all that time consuming, and it’s cheaper and infinitely more flavorful than store bought. Plus, you can customize the flavors of your stock […]
Outside the Salad Bowl: Egg Crepe w/ Spinach, Baby Shitakes & Feta
**This post is part of a month-long series as I participate in the Salad as a Meal Challenge. When I first looked at the title of this recipe, I was sad that I wouldn’t be able to eat it, surely it had flour in it. But to my surprise, this egg crepe was just that–egg! Honestly, […]
