Homemade Alfredo sauce. If you are buying this in a jar, stop! Three simple ingredients. 5 minutes to make. Melt 1/2 a stick of butter. Pour in one cup heavy cream. Stir 5 minutes. Whisk in 1 1/2 cups shredded Parmesan cheese and stir a minute to melt. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder and parsley if you are really feeling creative. That’s it. I pour it over cooked pasta with cooked chicken and broccoli. No weird ingredients. Dinner on the table in 20 minutes if you already have some leftover chicken and broccoli in the fridge. #makeitfromscratch #pastasauce #alfredopasta #inthekitchen https://www.instagram.com/p/CXpJULJsAOu/?utm_medium=tumblr

One of the funny things my Mom used to say when giving one of us grown kids food to take home (and she wasn't trying to be funny) was "Here, have this but eat it today." By which she meant it was on the cusp of going bad. Today I had some vegetables in the same predicament due to over zealous tapping on instacart. I had to use them before it was too late. One big sweet potato was teetering on the edge. So this is what I made: zucchini, chick peas and coconut in pineapple juice and a hit of allspice; zucchini, parmesan cheese, tomatoes and olives; broccoli, cabbage and sweet potato (yes, that one, it made it) in OJ, balsamic vinegar and a sprinkling of orange zest. There was amazingly still some zucchini left but I was tired of looking at it so I dumped in a pot with some vegetable stock that was thawing out...there, vegetable soup. #veganfood #makinguprecipes #whattodowithzucchini #makeitfromscratch #useitallup #funcooking https://www.instagram.com/p/CG0Ip6lpdYy/?igshid=1973dxriida6y

Homemade eggnog! It is so simple to make and amazingly delicious. Rich and creamy with only a few simple ingredients. And a great way to use up leftover egg yolks!

See that there? That is ginger that I grew myself in a pot on the patio. I am pretty impressed with myself! It was amazingly fragrant and easy to grate on the microplane grater. Used it in a marinade for some oven roasted organic bok choy. Absolutely delicious! #igrewthat #gingerisgoodforyou #foodstagram #makeitfromscratch https://www.instagram.com/p/CF5g5EoHRcf/?igshid=k8i87wv5gd4u
