Honey-Apple Cranberry Ginger Tisane

January 5, 2018 by Faith Leave a Comment

Thank you Council for Responsible Nutrition for sponsoring this post. This is #MyWeekSupplemented.

Honey-Apple Cranberry Ginger Tisane is a soothing, hot drink that’s rich with nutrients and full of flavor.

Whenever someone tells me that they don’t take vitamins or dietary supplements, their reason is typically because they eat healthy. The quality of food we put into our bodies is obviously a vital aspect of health (which is why I try to buy organic and grass-fed products as much as I can, especially when it comes to dairy, meat, and the dirty dozen), but there are a few pieces to the puzzle that also should be factored in.…

No-Cook Cranberry Honeycomb Cheesecake Mousse

December 6, 2017 by Faith 1 Comment

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #DonVictorHoney #HoneyForHolidays #CollectiveBias No-Cook Cranberry Honeycomb Cheesecake Mousse is sweetened with honey and honeycomb to balance the sweet/tart flavor of cranberry sauce; holiday desserts don’t get any easier or more delicious! Remember the episode of Friends where Rachel attempts to make a trifle? The cookbook pages were stuck together and she ended up making a cross between a trifle and shepherd’s pie, complete with things like beef, peas, custard, and jam. I don’t know about all that (although Joey liked it, lol!), but I’ve always thought that a […]...

Sweet Pepper Chickpea Salad with Mint and Honey-Sumac Vinaigrette

September 11, 2017 by Faith 1 Comment

Sweet Pepper Chickpea Salad with Mint and Honey-Sumac Vinaigrette features the tangy bright citrus-like flavor of sumac tempered with honey. Three kinds of bell peppers add color and crunch, and two kinds of fresh herbs make it something truly special. The thing is, I can happily eat salad like this for lunch any day of the year. It makes no difference to me that summer is (unofficially) over. Setting aside for a minute the fact that it’s always summer in Florida (except for about two weeks in January!), I eat hearty salads like this in the winter as well (or at least I did when […]...

Sautéed Leeks with Sweet Green Peas, Sumac, and Honey {Giveaway}

April 4, 2016 by Faith 126 Comments

Sautéed Leeks with Sweet Green Peas, Sumac, and Honey is a subtly sweet and slightly tangy spring side dish. Every trip I’ve made to the grocery store since mid-March I’ve asked the patient produce employees at Wegmans when they’ll have fiddlehead ferns in. And every week it’s the same response: It should be soon now!...

Earl Grey Tea and Honey Pound Cake with Walnuts

October 9, 2015 by Faith 11 Comments

This Earl Grey Tea and Honey Pound Cake with Walnuts pairs the citrusy flavor of bergamot with the sweetness of honey and the crunch of walnuts. Not long ago, a friend was gushing to me about a fabulous afternoon tea she had at a local hotel. Not one to miss out, I had to check it out for myself. It was indeed a lovely tea, but I couldnt help but think that in terms of the food, Ive had betterand could probably make a few tastier treats myself at home....

Caramelized Pineapple Grilled Cheese with Honeyed Walnuts

April 27, 2015 by Faith 26 Comments

What’s up with the pineapples on houses everywhere?, either Mike asked me or I asked him when we first moved to Virginia. Because they literally are everywhere…we noticed them carved or engraved on mailboxes, porches, doorways, doorknobs, door knockers, and welcome mats, and that’s before you even get inside. Once inside a traditional Southern house, you may notice a pineapple design integrated right into the house (for example, carved into fireplace mantels), as well as throughout the décor (like in paintings and carpets)....

Honey-Vanilla Masala Chai Syrup for Iced or Hot Lattes

August 11, 2014 by Faith 6 Comments

If I had to choose one smell that I feel sums up fall, it would be baking apple pie; this chai syrup comes in at a close second. But since it’s about a month too soon (at least for me) for hot beverages like hot chai lattes, I’ll wait on that for now…...

Soft and Chewy Tahini, Honey, and Almond Cookies {Paleo}

I keep a huge jar of tahini in my fridge at all times. (Because a normal-sized jar would just not due, lol.)...

Healthy Peanut Butter, Banana, and Honey Milkshake

February 18, 2013 by Faith 39 Comments

One of my favorite family traditions is every winter we snowbird down to Florida for a couple weeks of vacation. We are Disney fanatics, the whole lot of us (well, maybe aside from Mike, who claims that he goes for my sake…but when we’re there he seems to be enjoying the food and merriment for his own sake as well, lol), so the bulk of our time gets spent there. (Last year I posted about the afternoon tea we had at The Grand Floridian.) We have a few favorite places where we always eat in each Disney theme park; at Hollywood Studios one of our […]...
