This week has been a tough cooking for blogging week. I’m spending a couple of weeks on a pretty restrictive diet to kick myself back into gear. I’ve found myself pushing aside recipes that interest me because I know that I won’t be able to limit myself to just one serving or one taste or one bite. This is the time that being a food blogger (and a foodie) is frustrating. So I have a whole slew of recipes that I’m hoping to get to in a couple of weeks when I’m able to indulge again!

Roasted Vegetable and Black Bean Burger -I’m always on the lookout for good veggie meal recipes that H will eat as well.  Black bean burgers are right up my alley.  I’m looking forward to trying these.

Orzo w/ Roasted Vegetables – Have I mentioned before that I love orzo?  And this sounds like it would be a great side dish to have with a grilled pork loin or some roasted chicken.  I’m wondering how it might taste cold as well – to take to a picnic or a potluck?

Cauliflower and Caramelized Onion Tart – Deb at Smitten Kitchen always always has something that tickles my fancy and this savory tart is no exception.  Cauliflower and caramelized onion are two of my favorite things so putting them in a tart with cheese and Dijon and nutmeg … just drool!

Skirt Steak w/ Paprika Butter – This one is pretty much self explanatory, I think.  We live off of the grill during the summer and skirt steak is just perfect for quick, easy summer meals.
