Cooking for Two


By Iowa Girl Eats (Visit website)



Good morning all!


TGIF and TGIHTDO (thank goodness I have the day off!)


It’s true – Ben is heading to Nebraska this afternoon to go to the Nebraska vs Oklahoma football game tomorrow, so I took the day off to keep him company before he goes! I know…the sacrifices I make… ;)


I sliced up a BIG Honeycrisp Apple sprinkled with Cinnamon to eat while watching the Today Show this morning.

One of my favorite things to do when I have the day off is sleep in a little and then watch the Today Show. It just says “day off” to me! :)

I am actually stuffed right now…this Honeycrisp was seriously half the size of my head!!

Oh, a couple of people have asked how big the baking dishes are that I make my baked oatmeal in. Here they are compared to a can of beans.

I believe the dish on the right was part of a Corningware set we got for our wedding, and the dish on the right was part of a Rachel Ray “cooking for 2″ set. This set would be similar.

Since it’s just Ben and I in the house, it’s nice to have these smaller dishes to make personal sized casseroles and such. Cute!

They also work perfectly for:



Bacon Mac & Cheese
Lemon Tuna Noodle Casserole
Baked Apple Pie Oatmeal
Baked Banana Bread Oatmeal
Baked Chocolate Almond Butter Oatmeal
Baked Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal
Baked Raspberry Cheesecake Oatmeal
Apple Crisp

Agenda for day off:



Gym sesh with Ben
Help fertilize lawn for the winter (well, mostly just watch)
Maaaaaaaybe bake?!
Get outside – it’s supposed to be 70 degrees today, wheee!

Have a great morning everyone!

When’s the last time you had a day off? Do you use them to get stuff done, or relax?


I always have the best intentions of relaxing…but then you start noticing all the stuff that needs to get done and it’s hard not to get up and do it!
