Creamy Dijon Potato Salad Recipe

August 31, 2020 by Faith 6 Comments

This Creamy Dijon Potato Salad Recipe has just a touch of mayo for creaminess in the savory flavorful dressing, and Herbes de Provence adds flavor and gives it a unique spin. It pairs well with just about anything you cook on the grill!

If you follow me on Instagram, you know that when Mike and I were in Paris there was no holds barred on things like bread and cheese (come on, it’s Paris).

We tried to make up for it by walking seven to ten miles a day. And that wasn’t even our sole means of transportation; we typically took the Metro three or four times a day too! (What can I say? Paris is big and there’s a lot to do).…

Summer Squash Saute Recipe

August 24, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

This 4-ingredient Summer Squash Saute Recipe is an easy summer side dish that’s packed with flavor and perfect for showcasing fresh seasonal produce. I’m a sucker for a summertime roadside vegetable stand with fresh-picked goodies from a local farm, like peaches, tomatoes, or zucchini. Produce this time of year is top-notch in terms of flavor and nutrition. And the season is here and gone so quickly I always like to get my fill!...

Baked Eggplant Recipe with Tomato (Paleo)

August 3, 2020 by Faith 10 Comments

This paleo Baked Eggplant Recipe pairs mild roasted eggplant with a richly spiced tomato sauce, nutty toasted almonds, and fresh mint. Normally as summer winds down I start to hoard summer vegetables. Cucumbers get pickled, tomatoes get stewed (for beautiful things like creamy tomato soup in the middle of winter), and zucchinis get baked. (By the way, that chocolate zucchini cake I linked to freezes well for up to 6 months if wrapped well!)...

Pico de Gallo Recipe (Mexican Salsa Fresca)

May 24, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

Pico de Gallo Recipe (also called Mexican Salsa Fresca) takes just 10 minutes to make and transforms a few ordinary ingredients into a bright-flavored fresh salsa that you can pair with everything from tacos to tortilla chips, or just eat with a spoon. I can always be in the mood for Mexican food. I love richly spiced moles, slow-cooked fall-apart-tender meats like oxtail, roasts, and short ribs, and fresh cheese. Mexican cuisine is a harmony between spicy flavors to excite and creamy textures to cool the palate. And let’s not forget the fresh, bright flavor of things like tomato-based salsa that’s aromatic with cilantro to […]...

Garlic Roasted Mushrooms Recipe

April 10, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

This Garlic Roasted Mushrooms Recipe is seasoned simply with salt, pepper, olive oil, and fresh rosemary for an easy side dish that pairs with just about anything. As far as mushrooms go, it’s usually a love or hate situation. I have yet to meet anyone who has said “Mushrooms? Eh, they’re ok!” It’s always more of a passionate response one way or the other, lol! I fall deep into the mushroom-lovers camp....

April 3, 2020 by Faith 16 Comments

Healthier Roasted Gobi Manchurian (Indo-Chinese Cauliflower in a Spicy Sauce) is made in the oven, which is easier and healthier than frying! It’s crispy and delicious with a flavorful sweet and spicy sauce. If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you probably already know that I love Indian flavors....

Borani Banjan Recipe (Afghan Eggplant with Garlic Yogurt Sauce)

March 27, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

This Borani Banjan recipe (Afghan Eggplant with Garlic Yogurt Sauce) is a richly spiced stewed eggplant dish that’s served with tangy garlicky yogurt on top. When I lived in the DC area, there was an Afghani restaurant about 5 minutes away that had the best eggplant. It was a simple side dish, often overlooked by the more popular sides like bread and rice....

This Keto Pierogi Recipe makes perfect pierogies; crispy outside, chewy inside, stuffed with a savory mushroom filling. Top them with onions fried in butter, sour cream, and fresh dill! Lately I’ve had a serious craving for pierogis. Up in Buffalo, you can get amazing thick, cheese-filled pierogies from the grocery store (Wegmans, I’m looking at you, lol)....
