There are very few ingredients that completely turn me off from trying a recipe, but goat’s cheese is one of those ingredients. I will never, ever forget the first time I bought goat cheese. I had planned a special dinner that night, and the highlight of the evening was supposed […]

Let’s Mix It Up!
If you have spent ANY time here at Tummy Treasure over the past few years I’ve been blogging, you know how I feel about brownies made from a mix. You know how much I want to like them, and you know that every once in a while I pick up […]
A Friendly Monday Morning Reminder…
Summer is finally here in our neck of the woods! And while it’s overcast and a bit cloudy today, Saturday it was absolutely gorgeous outside. We pulled out the pool for the kids, loaded it up with water, and they were playing in it by 10:30 in the morning. It […]
A Spectacular Tart From Pinto Beans and Millet
The very first time I cooked with millet, I was pleased with the results, but I confess, it didn’t leave me clamoring for more. And even though I read on a lot of lists that millet is really very good for you, in practicality, there just aren’t that many recipes […]
Cheesy Baked Red Bean Cakes
I have two recipes this week using pinto beans. As it sort of starts to warm up here, I seem to be heading back into vegetarian mood. There is just something about warm weather that makes me not want to eat so much meat, so this is the time of […]
Back To Basics: Cooking with Soaked Beans
My apologies to all my loyal Tummy Treasure fans as I’ve been trying to get back in the blogging groove. We’ve had a very busy several weeks here, and now are finally officially enjoying summer vacation. Hitting the drive thru a few days a week just doesn’t make for exciting […]
Recital Weekend!
That means that we haven’t been home for a few days, and our home looks like the dumping ground it’s been for a few days. It also means it’s time for some pictures of Abigail all decked out in dancing beauty. For now you’ll have to settle with this photo […]
Magazine Alert!
This morning the mail-person placed the July/August issue of Everyday Food in my mailbox. From time to time, I really enjoy this magazine, but other times, the whole issue will not catch my interest at all. This one though, is worth grabbing. The cover is “60 Days of Summer” and […]
I Know It’s Not Soup Season…
But I have to share this soup, because it ended up being quite delicious. Plus, if you live anywhere near me, you’ve also been experiencing this cold fallish weather, and have been in the mood for warming comfort food. Hopefully the weather will get the memo soon that it is […]
Crockpot Salvation
Yesterday was our weekly dance day, with us being out late, and getting in to a late dinner. We’re pretty much out of soup season, as the last soup I made last week was really not happily received by my family. They’re just done with soup. I drew a complete […]
The Smashburger Experience
I was going through a few days worth of pictures and found a few from our weekend away in The Cities, and remembered that I forgot to talk about our trip to Smashburger. When we arrived at my brother’s house, he wasted no time in telling us about the Smashburger […]
The Summer Lunch Program
There are just four days of school left, including today- and Thursday is a partial day! We’re really looking forward to giving the alarm clock a rest, and it’s very obvious that Abigail is ready for a break from learning. One of the things I’ve really been thinking about is […]
