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....
Parmesan and Garlic White Bean Patties {Gluten-Free}
Gluten-free Parmesan and Garlic White Bean Patties feature the flavors of white beans, garlic, rosemary, and olive oil in little nibbles that are perfect for a party or picnic. The beauty of a good little nibble is that it can be served hot, warm, or at room temperature. Something you can set out hot at the beginning of a party and not have to worry about reheating an hour later (that is, if there are any left) because a) there isn’t anything in them that you have to worry about spoiling that quickly, and b) they’re every bit as delicious at room temperature as they […]...
Creamy Garlic and Chive White Bean Chowder with Leeks {Gluten-Free}
This gluten-free Creamy Garlic and Chive White Bean Chowder with Leeks is rich and velvety and full of fiber and protein! We all know sometimes less is more in life, and I think this can be particularly true when it comes to food. Think about a perfectly ripe summer tomato; the only thing it needs is maybe a sprinkle of salt to be mind-blowing. Or warm fresh baked bread, which can be improved by nothing except a smear of butter. Or creamy vanilla ice cream flecked with specks of vanilla beans and drizzled with hot fudge. So many times simple flavors win out....
Cheesy Garlic Mashed Root Vegetables, 2 Ways {Gluten-Free}
You can go silky smooth or textured with complex flavor for this gluten-free Cheesy Garlic Mashed Root Vegetable side dish! I love finding foods in books and movies; they always make such great affiliations, like Turkish Delight that the White Witch magicked up in Narnia, Butterbeer from The Three Broomsticks in Harry Potter, spaghetti dinner in The Godfather, and even diabolical connotations, like the poison apple in Snow White. Every time I mention roast chicken to my mom she replies with shock, “Roast chicken?!!” the way Elijah Wood as Frodo said it in The Lord of the Rings. Literally every single time, lol. And in […]...
Thai-Inspired Street Dogs: Grilled Hot Dogs with Peanutty Garlic, Ginger, and Cilantro Slaw
These Thai-Inspired Street Dogs boast some of my favorite Thai flavors like peanut, garlic, and ginger in a tasty slaw! What could be better for topping hot dogs? I am a street food junkie, especially when I travel. I think there’s no better way to get to know the cuisine of a different culture than to jump head-first into the food the locals enjoy. (Plus street food has the added benefit of being much more affordable, which means you get to sample more…right?)...
Sesame-Soy Arrowroot Noodles with Stir-Fried Vegetables {Plus a Q&A with GoMacro Founder and a MacroBar Giveaway}
We all know that being active is part of a healthy lifestyle. Sometimes, however, it feels like a catch-22 when you and your family are so active that you’re always on-the-go and there isn’t even time to cook a healthy meal. Which is, of course, why so many people resort to the drive thru. I have a different take on fast food....
Hearty Garlic and Herb Mushroom Stew {Paleo and Vegan-Friendly}
Even though I don’t usually share their sentiments, I can at least understand how some veggies fall into the “eww” category for some people…...
Italian Sundried Tomato, Garlic, and Rosemary Chicken Hoagies with Melted Fontina Sauce
So, fess up…what’s your favorite part of the Super Bowl?...
Tomato-Simmered Lemon and Oregano-Scented Bison Meatballs
On our dinner table growing up, the most unusual meat to be found was venison. (Which my sister and I never liked, not only because of its gamey flavor, but also because the thought of eating Bambi didn’t sit well with us.) I know that’s probably crazy to some of you who eat a whole gamut of meat....
Garlicky Red Quinoa Patties with Mango Black Bean Salsa
One of the perks of living in Florida is that when fruit trees bear fruit, people suddenly have more than they know what do with, and the wealth inevitably gets shared. I remember waking up to a huge box of mangos on my front porch one morning when I lived there during law school… One of my friend’s parents’ had a mango tree in their backyard (along with a grapefruit tree, those lucky ducks) and I was absolutely certain the fruit was from her family (who also frequently dropped off oranges and avocados that they got from a friend who also had fruit trees)....
