Maple Caramel Granola
I make a huge batch of this, but it still disappears in record time. Five-grain cereal, brown sugar, butter, and maple syrup as a binder, with dried cranberries and chopped dates. For sprinkling on cooked cereal, or any dessert. Probably … Continue reading

Ad hoc pizza
A quick throw-it-together pizza for lunch today – mostly sautéed onions and Italian sausage, with a bit of mozzarella. I’ll add mushrooms and more cheese on its next iteration.
