Roasted Butternut Squash & Mushroom Pie

Mushroom BOOM! That was our challenge for this week, and I knew right away what I wanted to make. Smitten Kitchen’s Mushroom Bourguignon, which is both on her site and in her cookbook. It was warm, cozy, and filling, but just not really a looker. Since I had the day off on Remembrance Day, I […]

Yesterday I brought some leftover shortbread cookies into work, as they were taking up valuable real estate in my freezer. Seriously, most people just groaned and walked right by. Happy New Year!

Warm Butternut Squash & Chickpea Salad

February 8, 2010 Elimination Challenge

Here’s my first Elimination Challenge Dinner! I have wanted to try this for the longest time, after Nicole made it and raved about it last year.
