Seared Salmon and Lemon Aioli with Red Potato, Asparagus, and Collard Green Hash showcases fresh, simple flavors and proves that hash is the perfect meal for any time of day! I might be in the minority, but Im one of those people who thoroughly enjoys grocery shopping; selecting fresh produce, looking through my favorite items like loose leaf tea and the cheese case, and finding new products to try makes me feel like a kid in a candy shop. The thing is, some weeks Im so pressed for time that even something I would normally enjoy seems like a huge chore....
Almond Butter Chicken Stew with Pineapple-Mint Relish {Whole30}
Almond Butter Chicken Stew with Pineapple-Mint Relish is a paleo and Whole30 compliant meal! I’ve been making variations of this lovely stew for literally years now. Sometimes I’ll add pineapple right into the stew, and sometimes I’ll sprinkle on a little Vanilla-Scented Toasted Coconut-Cashew Mix on top. Occasionally I’ll skip the greens (but I admit, I much prefer this with greens added!), and if I’m feeling adventurous I’ll use mustard greens, collard greens, or chard instead of kale. No matter what unique twist you put on it, you can’t go wrong with this meal....
Easy Turkey or Chicken Masala Wraps
Easy Turkey or Chicken Masala Wraps are a delicious recipe to transform leftovers into a completely new meal! I don’t consider myself a food snob at all. My go-to meal when nothing sounds good is a humble egg (preferably fried, runny yolk) with roasted vegetables, or a big pile of salad greens topped with whatever leftovers I can find in the fridge....
Easy Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers {Gluten-Free}
This gluten-free Easy Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers recipe is a delicious and fast weeknight dinner! It’s a great use for leftover steak, but feel free to swap out chicken if that’s what you have on hand; I also give easy vegan and paleo options. I know it’s December and we’re in the throes of the holiday season, but I’m taking a break from the festivities for a quick minute to bring you something you’ll hopefully find useful: a 20-minute family-friendly dinner idea!...
Stovetop Maple Chicken Hot Pot Recipe {Plus Maple Cookbook Review, Giveaway, and a Q&A with Katie Webster}
This paleo Stovetop Maple Chicken Hot Pot recipe hits all the right flavor notes (sweet, salt, and spice), making it addictively delicious and a great way to showcase the versatility of maple syrup. Some of my all-time favorite food memories from being a kid involve a big stack of pancakes topped with a pat of butter and drizzled with amber-colored, sticky-sweet maple syrup. Growing up, pancakes in our house were a very rare event, saved for birthdays and holidays, which made the ordeal even more special....
Slow Cooker Sweet Potato, Lentil, and Chicken Sausage Soup with Pumpkin Pie Spices
This hearty recipe for Slow Cooker Sweet Potato, Lentil, and Chicken Sausage Soup with Pumpkin Pie Spices will have your whole house smelling like fall. So the other morning I hit up the grocery store for a couple things I needed to make this recipe and a couple others. I chatted up a couple employees who I usually see there, and then went on my merry way. I was sidetracked passing through the candle aisle when I happened to notice that the Food Network has a line of candles (how long has this been going on? I feel like I’ve been living under a rock, […]...
Korean Barbeque Beef (Bulgogi) Recipe {Plus a Q&A with Celebrity Chef Thomas Gosney and a Giveaway of His Cookbook}
This paleo version of Korean Barbeque Beef (Bulgogi) is super flavorful and comes together fast enough for a weeknight dinner. I can’t remember whether or not my mom consciously taught me how to cook. I think it was more a case of her cooking family dinners for us every single night (on weeknights things like fish, broccoli, and rice or beef goulash or BBQ chicken with pasta salad and greens beans, and on weekends things like roast chicken or pot roast), and me watching her in the kitchen. Of course I also learned from a variety of other sources (TV, magazines, friends, etc.), but I […]...
Braised Chicken Thighs with Black Tea Blackberry Sauce {Paleo}
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)....
20-Minute Thai-Inspired Summer Vegetable Curry with Seared Salmon
This 20-Minute Thai-Inspired Summer Vegetable Curry with Seared Salmon makes the perfect weeknight summer meal. It’s amazing how much technique effects the final outcome when you’re cooking. The mere thought of green beans made me gag as a kid until I had them for dinner at a friend’s house and realized they aren’t inherently mush. (Sorry, Mom…you were notorious for overcooking the beans!) I disliked fried eggs until I learned how to cook them so that the whites are set and the yolks are runny. (The only thing worse than chalky overcooked egg yolk is icky undercooked egg white goop…ugh.) And I thought I hated fish […]...
Cheesy Refried Bean Burritos
These Cheesy Refried Bean Burritos are a hit with kids and adults alike! And bonus, they come together fast and are freezer-friendly. When I dormed in college, my friends took it upon themselves to teach me how to cook their favorite meals. An Indian boy across the hall cooked me vegetable curry. My Italian friend would cook me her grandmother’s recipe for chicken with basil cream sauce. And my roommate’s specialty was refried bean and bell pepper burritos....
