Spaghetti Sauce
"This is a recipe that I created, using one that I found on catalogs.com ... that recipe didn't list amounts, and when I realized how little sauce I'd get from ten tomatoes, I just started tossing in a bunch of other vegetables to bulk it up. We had this on Pesach with spaghetti squash, and it was very good."

I am a full-time graduate student and I also work full-time, which means that I am not likely to make labor-intensive, time-consuming recipes very often! I also struggle with anorexia, and so most of the recipes I create or try are low-calorie and fat-free. I do love to bake, though, and I'm able to do that for others right now, which is nice.
I also keep kosher; that, combined with the fact that I don't really eat meat or cheese, means that most of my recipes (or recipes that I try) are non-dairy and vegetarian, or can be easily adapted to suit that.
Kitchen gadgets are a horrible weakness of mine ... it is just so much fun to try out crazy new products that sometimes I can't help myself! Limited kitchen storage space has managed to sort of curtail that little habit.
