Dinner – this is Spicy Arabian Chicken with Couscous from What’s For Lunch Honey?, which is fast becoming one of my favourite places to look online for Indian and Middle Eastern recipes. Everything I try is consistently delicious, even when I end up substituting half the ingredients based on what I can find at the grocery store closest to my house. Nom nom nom.

Sorry about yesterday, guys. I’ve been sick for the better part of this week, and I finally ran out of backlogged posts to upload.

This is one of my favourite pasta recipes to make, mostly because it’s just as good day-old and room temperature as it is fresh. When you get right down to it, all there is to this recipe are some roasted vegetables and pasta tossed in oil and vinegar, which technically makes it a salad, I think, but whatever. It’s delicious, and reasonably healthy, and the leftovers don’t taste like leftovers.

Sometimes, when it’s cold outside, you just want something nice and warm and filling to eat. Chili, from my mom’s recipe.
