Zucchini Stacks with Goat Cheese (BEST Zucchini Appetizer!)

April 13, 2017 by Faith 8 Comments

Zucchini Stacks with Goat Cheese are literally the BEST zucchini appetizer with creamy, tangy goat cheese, tender zucchini and crunchy pine nuts. These stacks as easy to make as they are delicious and impressive, and they’re perfect for a spring supper or party!

I’m not one to shy away from green veggies. In fact, I’ve been known to serve fried eggs on sautéed greens as a breakfast salad, turn a bed of greens into pizza, and replace bread with leaves. But when spring rolls around, my need for the color green in my diet seems to intensify even more.…

Greek Turkey Burgers with Easy Homemade Tzatziki Sauce

July 22, 2016 by Faith 5 Comments

This recipe for Greek Turkey Burgers with Easy Homemade Tzatziki Sauce is a fun fusion of basic burgers and Greek Spanakopita for a fresh new weeknight meal idea. It’s packed with the flavors of garlic, spinach, pine nuts, and feta! It’s very rare that we actually make burgers at home. They usually take the backseat to grilled steak or BBQ chicken. If we’re craving a burger we usually hit up Smashburger (if my hubby is choosing) or Shake Shack (if it’s my turn to pick!)....

Spanakopita Potato Salad

June 16, 2016 by Faith 10 Comments

Spanakopita Potato Salad is a fun twist on potato salad, and a unique dish to bring to any bbq, picnic, or potluck! When Mike and I invite neighbors over for dinner, we typically make one of two things, depending on the weather: grilled meats (like chicken, steak, and/or fish) when it’s warm out, or a rice-based dish (like biryani or maqluba, or an Indian or Thai curry with rice on the side) when it’s cold....

Low-Carb Herbed Cauliflower “Rice” with Pine Nuts {Paleo}

December 11, 2014 by Faith 8 Comments

I know, I know… ‘Tis the season for festive foods…and festive typically leans more toward the side of indulgent descriptions like gooey, buttery, or chocolatey. So what’s the deal with this low-carb dish?...

Thank you to Tyson Foods for sponsoring this post. I am happy for the opportunity to share brands that I believe in with my readers, and I hope you enjoy my recipe for Herbed Chicken and Brown Rice Spanakopita Bowls. I don’t know who first came up with the idea of a meal in a bowl (for some reason, I feel like it was a fast food chain!), but whoever it was is a food genius....

Roasted Vegetable Crustless Quiche with Basil & Pine Nuts {Cuisine Nicoise Cookbook Giveaway}

August 9, 2013 by Faith 92 Comments

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. […]...

Spanakopita Puffs

July 23, 2012 by Faith 37 Comments

Given the choice between a big, one-plate meal (like lasagna or roast chicken), or a meal of several small dishes, I will choose the small dishes at least nine out of ten times. (That tenth time I just need roast chicken, lol.)...
