The Rumbly Tummy: 24 Hour Banana Chia Pudding

We are heading back into the studio, which means that we are working pretty hard to get our bodies in tip top shape. Which means, zero sugar. It's way too hard on our voices. It's a bummer, as this little folk duo loves themselves some gluten free treats. Sure, we could just omit anything sweet at all, but we want to actually have fun making this record, too. So, we dug through our fruit bowl and our cupboards and came up with a tasty treat that may even be good for our

The Rumbly Tummy: Coconut Biscuits.

Maybe thick, heavy biscuits aren't the most romantic food for this Valentine's month, but if there's one thing we know about love, it's that you must appreciate what you have to have love at all. And we have a ton of coconut flour. The thing about coconut flour is, it sounds festive. And maybe you also think you read somewhere in an article something about coconut flour and heart health-- or brain synapses? So maybe you pick some up in the grocery store and think "Huh, thi

The Rumbly Tummy: Maple Baked Oatmeal Apples (featuring Makin' Maple!)

We are happy to be on the road again, happy to be heading toward warmer weather, but we are sorely missing Vermont already. The snow, the tasty local foods, the friends-- and, of course, the maple syrup. Lucky for us, we stocked up before we left. Which explains our shameless plug for our friend, Chris, of Makin Maple. Chris and his son, Alex Parker (known as Alex Parker & Dad) is one of our favorite Vermonters. He's as sweet as his syrup, and when you are loading up on

The Rumbly Tummy: Dilly-Dally Beans

These little squirrels are starting to feel that crisp Fall air up here in the Northeast. Which means that we've been dragging our feet quite a bit-- taking longer walks, a few naps, and generally getting ahead of ourselves for our winter hibernation. But as the stands at the Farmer's Markets are showing fewer tomatoes and more hard shelled squashes, we are finally getting a move on for our winter storage. No more dilly dallying for us. Except for beans. This month on Th

The Rumbly Tummy: Roasted Red Pepper Tahini Dip

Summer is winding down, and this little living-in-a-hot-tin-can folk band couldn't be happier to see Fall coming at last. But before we start roasting pumpkin seeds and doubling down on kale cranberry salads, we've got a lot of fresh summer veggies to eat up. And sometimes, simple is best. We love ourselves a good crudites platter-- sliced raw veggies with a pickle or two thrown on the side. And in the center of it all, a creamy delicious ranch. On occasion, though, we lo

The Rumbly Tummy: Scott's Camper Kimchi in July

We're a little late (or early depending on how you look at it) for this month's Rumbly Tummy. You see, we've been busy as a beaver, a term which typically refers to the dam building habits of large, semi-aquatic rodents with flat, capable tails, but which here refers to hanging out with Mallory's parents, going to Kennywood (Pittsburg's oldest amusement park), jumping on trampoline's and screaming while sliding down water slides in an indoor water park with a certain niece an

The Rumbly Tummy: Coconut Citrus Tofu & Spinach

Scott remembers the first time we made this Coconut Citrus Tofu & Spinach somewhere in rainy New England. We were too many hours away from our next gig to stop to eat, so Mallory insisted on "whipping up something quick" in the camper while Scott pumped gas. But something quick also needed to be something hot, as The R&T had successfully booked a "chasing winter" tour, which meant that they not only played Michigan in March and Canada in April and New England in May, but th

The Rumbly Tummy: Savory Corn Blini (and a Cook & Color Book Preview)

It's been a fun month for us, celebrating Mallory's birthday, peaking back through familiar territory, parking in Nashville pal's driveways and streets, and snagging a few shows in between. And the food-- oh, boy. The Rough & Tumble are definitely carrying a few extra pounds on them. In Nashville, between their friend Kristie's celebratory vegan Nacho Night, picking up a few day job hours at her vegan meal delivery service kitchen (and getting to take home a few goods), an

The Rumbly Tummy: One-to-Grow-On Homemade Granola

It's Mallory's Birthday! Which may lead you to believe that today's Rumbly Tummy would be a special birthday cake recipe. But instead, we are celebrating by bringing you a recipe for her homemade granola! Sure, birthday cereal may not be a tradition in your house, but here in Rough & Tumble Land, it's a staple. Also, we've been spending a lot of time at Mallory's sister Devon's house. She lives in Tallahassee in a place that has electricity and... get this.. an OVEN! An

Beer Battered Avocado Tacos

We have finally exited the Southwest for the Midwest, but before we keep heading southward to Florida, we thought we would reminisce on the delicious fare we indulged in while heading through that sunny-scape at our backs. Particularly, the Hatch Green Chile. As we left our friends in Tubac, AZ (a mystical sort of place near the border), they sent us off full and happy and with a well wish to visit Hatch, New Mexico on our way to Taos. The smell of chiles greeted us as we

The Rumbly Tummy: Celebratory Krab Cakes for Fancy Occasions.

It's hard to find a good crabcake when you go gluten free, as Mallory discovered five years ago. They're all fally-aparty and mushy without the slight crisp. And it's even harder to find a good crab cake when you go vegan. Sure, there are some delicious alternatives (we can go on and on about Sophie's Kitchen) that use this amazing thing called konjac root that makes a spongy, seafood like consistency. But there's something still a little less than ceremonious-- or fancy-

The Rumbly Tummy: Goatless Cheeze

We've been steadily working on The Rumbly Tummy: A Cook & Color Book since getting to Scott's parents' farm in Central California. We occasionally have to make trips outside of the small town of Dinuba to find ingredients, as there is a surprising lack of tempeh at the local Walmart. After kitchen testing all 54 recipes, we happened on New Year's Eve with a lot of extra room in our bellies on account of them stretching, and a little bit of nostalgia for the days of cheesebo

Double Americana: Shortenin' Bread

It's been a crazy couple weeks here in the land of The R&T. Between releasing a music video for Tiny Moses, playing shows in Reedley, Santa Margarita, and Paso Robles (thanks to everyone who came out and supported us!), completing our Kickstarter (WE MADE IT THANKS TO YOU!), readying press releases, submitting our music to distributors, and drinking a lot of Turkish Coffee, we've been the proverbial chicken minus a head. And it wasn't just a crazy week for us. It was a crazy

The Rumbly Tummy: Turkish Coffee

Well, we're in the thick of it here, folks. And if you're not looking for the perfect Christmas present for your Double Americana obsessed friend, then you're probably looking for coffee. Luckily for you, we've got both. For today's Rumbly Tummy, we decided to walk you through how to make Turkish Coffee. Last Christmas, Mallory got Scott this ibrik and set of 3 espresso cups, the perfect size to spring on curious relatives during your holiday celebration. The first time we ha

Kickstarter Cactus Tacos! (with a side of tomatillo salsa)

Happy Kickstarter Day! Listen, we aren't experts on anything. Just ask us. But since we were so close to our southern friends' border, and really wanted an alliteration for Kickstarter, we decided to pick up some foods we have generally only found local to the Southwest. Which is how we ended up here, informing you on how to cook cactus when we are doing it for the first time. But it worked out for us, and we hope it fills your belly as you click the "donate" button on ou

The Rumbly Tummy: Scott's Jazz Migas

It's Monday morning and we are parked in the Wall Drug parking lot, just outside the Badlands in South Dakota. The dogs and I just howled like coyotes in our excitement of the cold weather and the celebration of the end of another long weekend of fun, but tiring, shows. Scott is doing an inventory of our refrigerator, pulling the nearly too-far-gone tomatoes and the wilting cabbage out, "The radish green and radishes on the bottom right should probably go," I say. "Ooooh,"

Roasted Poblano Corn Chowder

It's September 6th, which means we're getting to that lovely and awkward time of year where the leaves are starting to fall from the trees but only after a good rainstorm, the nights are getting cold but not cold enough that you can keep the comforter on all night, and when your flannel shirt sits like a hitchhiker in your passenger seat. This is the time of year when you still want iced coffee but you've begun kicking yourself every time you don't order the pumpkin spice lat

The Rumbly Tummy: Beer Battered Jalapeno Poppers

We were all crying and gulping down our Watermelon Mint Sloshes as fast as we could. When we caught our breath, we kept taking more bites. It hurt so good. Ryan had a couple of requests, and jalapeno poppers weren't one of them. Ryan doesn't even really like spicy food. But with pepper season in full swing at the local farmers market, we had those little jalapenos wedged everywhere from behind the mustard to between ciders, and they were falling out each time we opened ou

The Rumbly Tummy: Watermelon Mint Sloshes

It's summer! After chasing a world of winter for months, we are breaking a bit of a sweat just from standing in the sun (with sunblock, of course). This means a couple of things. One, that Mallory and Butter are extra cranky. Two, it's watermelon season. Three, that makes Mallory twice the extra cranky. Because if you're like Mallory, you don't like watermelon. Scott, however, is in his glory. Which brings us to this compromise: Watermelon Mint Sloshes. Nothing can con

Cockles and Mussels

We've spent our last month on or near the Atlantic, which while that isn't quite Ireland, our time in Maine felt dang close. Well, at least for two people who have never been to Ireland. Thanks to a request from some friends who actually have been to Ireland (and who also happen to own a giant book of folk songs-- thanks, Megan and Ryan!), we can pretend a little bit more. "Cockles and Mussels" is considered the unofficial anthem of Dublin, and features an ill-fated fishmon
