Of Goats and Greens
A blog for food and cookery and discussions of weird things like nutrition, restaurant excursions, growing food in my own garden and on my planned homestead; and anything related.
I'm personally mostly interested in foods made from healthy fats and healthy carbs, low amounts of processed sugars or starches, and I definitely steer to a preference for Real Food. (Would someone's great-grandparent have recognized the item as food?) I've a strong interest in vegetables, seafood, eggs, and "ethnic" foods from around the world. Yes, I do make use of "odd bits". No, I don't bake desserts much -- I really don't have much of a "sweet-tooth". Currently all my recipes are gluten-free, or readily have that option.
Please leave me comments!

Skillet Mac and Cheese with Veggies
For many in America, mac & cheese is “comfort food”. We didn’t grow up with it as such, which is why I usually put the word “comfort” into quotes. One man’s comfort is another’s discomfort… When we did have it, it was … Continue reading

Chicken Heart and Cheese Omelet
Yes, I know not everyone shares my love of certain types of offal, and they’re welcome to pronounce it “awful”. If you don’t want to use chicken hearts (or can’t find them), feel free to use a portion of … Continue reading

Scalloped Potatoes Au Gratin with Onions and Cabbage

Adventures in Crustless Quiche
I’ve never made Quiche before these two recent experiments in quiche-dom. This is definitely a weekend morning endeavor (or, they are pretty quick for an evening after work)! But, you definitely can make them ahead and refrigerate for later — … Continue reading
