Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
Gluten-free Roasted Delicata Squash with Cinnamon-Toasted Hazelnuts and Pomegranate is a beautiful way to celebrate the flavors of the season.
Of all the possible addictions that people battle, I think winter squash might just take the cake for strangest. But really, I admit 100% that I’m an addict and I may or may not need help, lol.
Delicata squash in particular is my weakness.…
Switch up your regular chicken dinner routine with this paleo Jamaican-inspired Jerk Roasted Chicken Thighs and Sweet Potato Dinner with Creamy Honey-Jalapeno Sauce. The more I have the chance to spend time in different areas of the country, the more I realize that where you’re from is often depicted in the way you drive. In your car is where things get real. When my sister lived in North Carolina, she told me about what she liked to call Southern charm. She said everyone is sweet as a Georgia peach pie (as in, ohhh, bless her heart) until they get into their car and then it’s no […]...
Keep kale salad fresh and exciting with this Creamy Poppy Seed Kale Slaw with Red Pear, Toasted Pepitas, and Golden Raisins! Say hello to your new favorite fall salad. With pear, kale, and toasted pumpkin seeds, not to mention the gorgeous golden shade of sultanas that mimic the color of changing leaves, I’m hard-pressed to find a salad that says fall more than this one. Unless of course if you go and add something like butternut or pumpkin or maybe apple to it (because they really are the epitome of fall, aren’t they?)....
Gluten-free and vegan 10-Minute Cinnamon Raisin Brown Rice Breakfast Porridge is great to warm up with on a chilly morning! Sometimes the only thing that gets me out of bed on a freezing cold winter morning is the thought of a warm breakfast. And maybe a hot cup of coffee to go along with it....
This French Onion Soup Cheese Ball makes a great party appetizer! When it comes to appetizers in general and cheese balls in particular, I’m of the mind that flavors should be big and bold. Go big or go home, right?...
This Peanutty Thai Curry Hummus is full of some of my favorite Thai flavors: peanut, coconut, garlic, ginger, fish sauce, and fresh lime! It was the strangest thing. I woke up on a day like any other…ate my regular breakfast, did my normal workout, showered, replied to a few emails, and headed to the fridge for a post-workout snack. I grabbed what I saw first, hummus and a carrot. Happy as a lark, I dunked the carrot into the hummus, only to discover that I was over it....
This paleo recipe for Braised Chicken Thighs with Black Tea Blackberry Sauce is a great way to savor summer fruit. Summer’s not over yet. It’s winding down fast, but it’s not yet gone. Although I’m looking forward to fall like the dickens, I’m trying to make the fullest of summer produce before it’s gone. As in, stuff my face with any/every summer fruit/vegetable I can, as often as I can. At this point, summer produce even preempts chocolate for me (gasp)....
Banana bread-lovers, this Piña Colada Banana Bread is a must-try if you enjoy the tropical flavors of pineapple and coconut! I’m weird in that I don’t like bananas much. I buy them for two reasons: 1) they’re one of my hubby’s favorite fruits (not surprising, since we have pretty much opposite tastes in food), and 2) to let them ripen to near-rotting (yup, I love them super sweet) and either freeze them to use in smoothies or make banana bread. See? I’m weird....
I’m a planner. (I may have mentioned that here before or you may have guessed. Or you may know from personal experience, and if that’s the case and I drove you nuts with my 1001 lists all I can say is I’m sorry. Truly. But remember, like Monica’s label maker, sometimes organization comes in handy. ;) ) Anyway....
Until my early 20’s, rose and lavender are two flavors that I was only familiar with in regards to soap…I never dreamt of eating them. And then one summer when I was taking a class on international mediation and arbitration in Europe for law school, I happened on the prettiest little sachet of Herbs de Provence in the south of France....
