Eggplant Pizzas
Hi friends! Happy Monday to ya. Hope you had a wonderful weekend. After Saturday’s long run, I spent the day at work, crashed out embarrassingly early, and we spent all of Sunday just hanging out.

9/13: Friday faves
-A reunion with Mexican food. Since we all decided that I’m not about to attempt the glorious Italian food we ate -guess we’ll just have to go back one day!- I’m sticking with what I know. Like enchis. I had a little helper in the kitchen, and there’s no doubt that she made them even…

8/30: Friday Faves
-Being reunited with an old appetizer friend: I made these sweet potato rounds for last night’s girls night, and even though it’s been forever since I’ve made them, they used to be my-go snack for parties. Super simple: cut sweet potatoes into rounds, bake 35 minutes at 375, top a mix of feta (I used…
