Creamed Cabbage
Creamed Cabbage makes a delicious side dish for just about any main course! Right before New Year’s, I shared a post with photos of a few recipes that I made, but never blogged for various reasons. In that post was a picture of Creamed Cabbage; the picture itself was not my favorite, but the dish was fantastic. It’s one of those things you can eat every day for a week, and when it’s gone, still wish you had made a bigger batch. I don’t blame you for bombarding me via email for the recipe....

5-Ingredient Vanilla-Scented Toasted Coconut-Cashew Mix {Paleo}
Some things drive you completely wild with desire as they cook. Roast chicken. Apple pie. Any recipe that starts out with sautéed onion and garlic. Chocolate chip cookies. And I can say with confidence that this recipe should be added to the list....
Gluten-Free Cranberry-Orange-Pecan Cornbread Muffins
For me, this fall has been all about cranberries. And I’m completely shocked to say that even my seasonal favs like apple and pumpkin have taken the backseat to cranberry this fall. (How did that happen?!) I think I’m finally giving cranberry the spotlight it deserves. (And shame on me for not doing it sooner! But I did share some pretty fabulous Cranberry-Flax Cookies and some lovely Dark Chocolate-Coated Cranberry Cake Bites.)...
Healthy Candy Apple Wedges {Paleo}
How many of you will admit to sneaking some of your kid’s Halloween candy when no one is looking? I don’t have kids (yet!), but yeah, I’d be guilty as charged. It’s the stuff we won’t buy for ourselves, but if it’s just hanging around, it’s fair game. If you didn’t buy it for yourself, the calories don’t count, right? ;) I like to have healthier treats that will still satisfy a sweet tooth at the ready....
Super Simple Fresh Fig + Pistachio Salad with Pomegranate Dressing
Who says salad can’t be spectacular? Not I. I think the best part about a salad is its simplicity. If you have amazingly fresh produce, just let its flavor shine and the work is done for you....
Bulgur Wheat Salad with Pomegranate + Walnut
The first time I made this salad was last summer for a cookout at my parents’ house before Mike and I left for Kuwait. I wanted to bring a hearty salad, and I was trying to clean out my pantry and fridge when I found a bag of bulgur wheat in the pantry and a bottle of pomegranate molasses in the fridge. For some reason I thought combining the two in one dish was the best idea ever. As strange as this pairing might sound, it is pretty fantastic....
Chocolate-Covered Toasted Coconut Pops {Popsicle Week}
Most people I know use umbrellas in downpours. Not me. I always say I won’t melt and shrug off the fact that I will inevitably look half-drowned after choosing not to use an umbrella; but the truth is I really can’t be bothered with the trouble (which of course is really no trouble at all) of using one (although there’s a quite large pretty black umbrella in my car at all times). I must be some kind of umbrella-phobe. Weird, right? Now heat is another story. Coupled with high humidity, when temps over 85 hit me I actually do melt....
Roasted Vegetable Crustless Quiche with Basil & Pine Nuts {Cuisine Nicoise Cookbook Giveaway}
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. […]...
