Curried Cauliflower Quinoa Salad

August 28, 2018 By Holly 38 Comments

Hey friends! The end of summer has been a little crazy here at With Two Spoons so we are taking the week off from our kitchens and revisiting some of our favorite recipes of days past. I’ve been loving this Curried Cauliflower Quinoa Salad for easy, portable lunches these days. If you haven’t tried it before, read on and give it a try the next time you’re in the mood for a great, flavor packed lunch or side dish.

Cauliflower Quinoa Curry

I’ve always been a voracious reader (and eater, truth be told) and when e-readers first came out, I swore up and down that nothing – nothing! – would ever replace a physical book in my mind. I loved the feel of them in my hand, the smell of the paper, and seeing them stacked up on my bookshelves. Well, fast forward a few short years later and my kindle is one of my very favorite things. I love having so many books at my fingertips and not having to carry so many heavy books when I travel. The one thing it hasn’t replaced? My cookbooks. I will confess that I probably have a bit of a cookbook addiction. I love them. I read them like novels, pouring over the beautiful photos and stuffing bits of colorful post-it notes onto the pages of recipes I want to try. Growing up, my grandmother had the most impressive collection of cookbooks I’ve ever seen and I’m fairly certain my love of cookbooks comes straight from her. Some of the best books her in collection? Small town church cookbooks.  Those little gems are filled with home cooking treasures and I love to read them for inspiration from fellow home cooks. This week’s recipe for Curried Cauliflower Quinoa Salad was inspired by a recipe for curried cauliflower I found in just such a cookbook. …

Simple Pico de Gallo

July 3, 2018 By Holly 1 Comment

Pico de gallo is one of my all-time favorite summer recipes. Now, I use the word recipe pretty loosely because it’s definitely a simple combination of foods, tossed together, and endlessly customizable. That being said, traditional pico de gallo is a fresh salsa (and is also sometimes called salsa fresca) typically made with tomato, onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime, and salt. It is always coarsely chopped, never blended, and it’s uses are endless. Simple Pico de Gallo…

Instant Pot Coconut Curry Chickpeas

May 15, 2018 By Holly 6 Comments

Like so many others, I’ve become somewhat of an Instant Pot fanatic. When I first bought my Instant Pot, it sat in the box for about six months, coming out only to serve as a glorified rice maker. Now, don’t get me wrong, it’s a great rice maker, but I didn’t really appreciate just how great this kitchen instrument was until I started using it to fast track healthy dinners for my family. Over the past year, it’s become a go-to tool for soups, stews, roasts, and countless large batches of quinoa. I love that it allows me to produce meals that taste like I’ve been working on them all day, but in reality, came together in less than an hour.  My latest IP favorite? This simple recipe for Instant Pot Coconut Curry Chickpeas.

Veggie Quinoa Cakes

April 10, 2018 By Holly 14 Comments

I’m not gonna lie, sometimes feeding my daughter is tough. She is the sweetest, funniest little girl in the world but at 18 months old, she’s also a tiny tyrant when it comes to food. If it isn’t a fruit, yogurt, bread, or cheese, she isn’t having any of it. I’m fairly certain that if it weren’t for those handy pouches with veggies mixed in, she wouldn’t get within 10 feet of a vegetable. It breaks my food blogger/veggie loving heart just a little. So, in an attempt to get my daughter to eat something other than cheese, I recently came up with these delicious little Veggie Quinoa Cakes. They’re easy to make (and freezable!) and packed with protein and veggies, making them a great option for the entire family!

Instant Pot Black Bean Tacos with Avocado Crema

April 3, 2018 By Lane 13 Comments

Without further ado, here is the recipe for the Instant Pot Black Bean Tacos with Avocado Crema that I had promised you all! (and for extra yum, they contain butternut squash as well!)

I recently hosted one of my book clubs and decided the theme should be tacos. The book was “Americanah”, and if you’ve ever read this book you’re wondering right now where I got the idea for a taco theme.  Spoiler alert, my mind works in mysterious ways.  I can’t explain it.  I won’t even try. But for some reason, this book made me decide to create a recipe for Instant Pot Black Bean Tacos with Avocado Crema and I’m sure glad it did.  …

Drool alert!

Last weekend was our cabin blogging weekend.  Imagine, two of my besties, a ton of fresh ingredients, wine, a beautiful view and lots of imagination. And with no kids and no husbands to cook for, we had full artistic license!  SO MUCH FUN.  I’m so excited to share all of the new recipes we created, starting with this Southwestern Frittata!

Instant Pot Thai Butternut Squash Soup

November 28, 2017 By Lane 14 Comments

This Instant Pot Thai Butternut Squash Soup is a unique twist on an old favorite-made fast using the Instant Pot!

Instant Pot Thai Butternut Squash Soup

Winter is here in Minneapolis.  Oh sure, it’s not TECHNICALLY winter (which I’m reminded of frequently by my rule following 6 year old), but Thanksgiving is over, the cold has moved in, and it’s dark hours and hours before we go to bed.  (Notice I don’t say before I’m READY to go to bed…).  With the cold comes the need for soup.  Warm, comforting, fill-you-up soup.  Like this Instant Pot Thai Butternut Squash Soup. …
