Easy Pesto Sauce Recipe in Vintage Glass Jar

Normally I’m a planner. I have calendars and lists and notebooks, all organized by topic and order of importance. That’s not to say I’m always on top of stuff or that I don’t procrastinate, lol. But even if I’m not on top of something, I usually know what it is that I’m procrastinating.

That carries over into blogging because I like to plan out my posts a bit in advance. And this pesto was not on the agenda!…

Chicken Caprese Recipe with Lemon and Thyme

May 1, 2020 by Faith 4 Comments

This Chicken Caprese Recipe with Lemon and Thyme transforms a classic Caprese salad into a flavorful meal! It strikes the right balance between being satisfying but not overly heavy. One of the best things about summer is the food. Whether your favorite is corn, watermelon, peaches, green beans, or tomatoes, there seems to be some new local produce popping up at the farmers market every week. I, for one, am hard-pressed to choose a favorite....

Peach Burrata Salad with Bacon, Butter Lettuce, Basil, and Pistachio

August 24, 2018 by Faith 1 Comment

Close Up of Burrata Peach Salad with Butter Lettuce, Basil, and Pistachio

Peach Burrata Salad with Bacon, Butter Lettuce, Basil, and Pistachio comes in a clutch during the summer months when you have more fresh peaches than you can devour! This salad is a lovely balance of sweet and savory flavors, and creamy and crunchy textures. I’ve been a little peach-crazed lately, buying them by the bagful and then trying to eat my way through them! When they’re in season, a perfectly ripe, sweet, juicy peach is bliss. My favorite way to eat them is just as they are. However, when I buy more than I can eat out-of-hand, I have to get a little creative. That’s […]...

Low-Carb Cheesy Tomato Basil Chowder

December 11, 2017 by Faith 1 Comment

Low-Carb Cheesy Tomato Basil Chowder Overhead View Vertical Orientation

Similar to fondue, Low-Carb Cheesy Tomato Basil Chowder uses a secret ingredient – a touch of white wine – to help keep the cheese from becoming stringy. Offhand it’s hard to think of a more comforting wintertime meal than tomato soup. Maybe it’s nothing more than Campbell’s has a great marketing campaign (mmm, mmm good!). Or maybe it’s because as a kid I remember my dad making tomato soup on the regular in the winter (and he’d add to it – of all the odd things – macaroni noodles!). Whatever the reason, tomato soup just feels right to me this time of year....

Oven-Roasted Garlicky Grape Tomatoes and Fancy Toast {Wolf Gourmet Four-Slice Toaster Giveaway Worth $499}

April 17, 2017 by Faith 133 Comments

Oven-Roasted Garlicky Grape Tomatoes combine with creamy burrata and bright-flavored fresh basil for a simple take on fancy toast that’s hard to beat. On a recent trip to the farmers’ market, I couldn’t resist picking up a couple pints of the loveliest grape tomatoes…only to get them home and realize that looks can be deceiving! They were seriously lacking in the flavor department. The only hope I had of salvaging them (and rendering them edible) was to cook them in some way....

Roasted Vegetable Crustless Quiche with Basil & Pine Nuts {Cuisine Nicoise Cookbook Giveaway}

August 9, 2013 by Faith 92 Comments

There are certain recipes you see that you expect to have certain ingredients just from reading the title. Like macaroni and cheese. I always expect macaroni, and I always expect cheese…but that’s not necessarily true. Take cauliflower “macaroni” and vegan “cheese”; true it doesn’t taste exactly like the original, but still, it’s macaroni and cheese-ish and delicious anyway. Or fudge. I hear the word fudge and my mind goes to chocolate. But flavors like cappuccino, cinnamon bun, and peanut butter show that isn’t the case. Chocolate obviously doesn’t have to be included in a fudge-like confection for it to be tasty. And then there’s quiche. […]...

Heirloom Tomato Bruschetta

August 3, 2011 by Faith 44 Comments

The other day Mike watched Julie & Julia with me.  It was his first time and I wasn’t sure if he’d like it (since admittedly it is a bit girly), but he said he enjoyed it (he is the best hubby ever…I’m pretty sure he was just being sweet!).  I think the best thing that came out of the movie for him is that it reminded me of the amazing bruschetta that Julie makes with heirloom tomatoes, basil, and bread that’s pan-seared in olive oil.  Of course the movie gave me a serious craving for this bruschetta, which to me is the most delicious way you will ever […]...
