Bow Chicka Wow Wow

June 9, 2012 Miranda

Because of my ongoing hospital internship, which is basically the equivalent of a being a resident, my blogging has subsequently suffered. Despite my lack of posts, I have been cooking! Follow me on instagram @thecrunchyradish to see what I make day to day. Additionally, Tuesday is the start of the CSA we've joined. I am thrilled to see what organic local surprises pop up weekly! I know my culinary skills and creativity will be put to the test, but I am looking forward to the challenge.

Here are some pictures of what I've been whipping up over the past few weeks. Enjoy!

An amazing vegetable lasagna that looks more complicated than it was

(Whole Wheat Lasagna with Arrabiata Sauce, Grilled Eggplant, Zucchini, Kale, Mushrooms, Lemony Ricotta, and Local Mozzarella pictured above and below)

Some Mushroom Tacos

Enoki and Maitake Tacos on Sprouted Grain Tortilla with Cotija Cheese and Gauc

Saffron Bulgur with Zucchini, Tomatoes, Bell Peppers and Feta

Stewed Red Beans, Sautéed Kale and Sprouted Coconut Turmeric Brown Rice

I've been obsessed with slow roasting tomatoes....they are perfect on or with anything 

Curry Tomato Soup over Faro topped with Lite Coconut Milk

It’s not vacation, it’s a trip! So much caffeine, so many tomatoes,  so many smiles (and some tears- mainly from me) and a lot of happy memories.

radish recs: maine *with a baby

We spent the last unofficial week of summer in Maine. We have visited a few times before but, this was our first trip with Jack in tow. Maine is one of my favorite places to visit because it emanates quintessential New England charm with its beautiful coastlines, fabulous seafood, and welcoming communities.

radish recs: golden door spa and resort
radish recs: golden door spa and resort

This has been a busy summer for me filled with some amazing travel, fun work opportunities, and prepping for the incoming addition of #babyradish. I also had the incredible opportunity to attend the cooking school at the Golden Door Spa and Resort outside Escondido, California in early August for some personal development paired with some R and R. The few days that I spent at the Golden Door allowed me some major relaxation partnered with my favorite past time - cooking! 

The Golden Door experience is completely tailored to each guest's needs, from dietary requests, spa treatments, and workouts - everyone's visit is 100% unique. The primary purpose of my stay was to improve upon my culinary skills and to learn new techniques around building flavor and texture using vegetable-forward ingredients without sacrificing the nutritional quality of the food. Although the main incentive of my visit was for the cooking school, that didn't mean that I couldn't indulge in all of the glory that the Golden Door has to offer.

Radish Recs: Nantucket
Radish Recs: Nantucket

Nantucket will forever be our special place, as I know it is for many people. When I first visited sixteen years ago, I was immediately awe struck by the magic and pure unadulterated beauty of the island. The unforgiving “New Englandness” of it all and its upscale Americanism that truly rain supreme. Our transcendent tour guides, Emily and Jack, were present throughout our brief little trip, and we are forever grateful to them for guiding us in the most perfect directions. We spent a little under three days on the Island but, as always, it was well fueled by fantastic and memorable eats. Here are my Radish Recs: Nantucket
