December 2, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

With a hint of warm spices, just the right amount of brown sugar, creamy sweet potatoes, and crunchy oat and pecan streusel topping, this classic Southern Sweet Potato Casserole Recipe is a crowd-pleasing gluten free side dish! Don’t wait for the holidays to make it, whip it up to serve with a Sunday roast chicken or steak.

The wonderful thing about this classic Southern Sweet Potato Casserole Recipe is that it can double as a side dish or dessert. It’s traditionally served as a side dish for holiday meals, but I think it’s sweet enough to enjoy instead of pie!…

Creamy Dijon Potato Salad Recipe

August 31, 2020 by Faith 6 Comments

This Creamy Dijon Potato Salad Recipe has just a touch of mayo for creaminess in the savory flavorful dressing, and Herbes de Provence adds flavor and gives it a unique spin. It pairs well with just about anything you cook on the grill! If you follow me on Instagram, you know that when Mike and I were in Paris there was no holds barred on things like bread and cheese (come on, it’s Paris). We tried to make up for it by walking seven to ten miles a day. And that wasn’t even our sole means of transportation; we typically took the Metro three or […]...

Summer Squash Saute Recipe

August 24, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

This 4-ingredient Summer Squash Saute Recipe is an easy summer side dish that’s packed with flavor and perfect for showcasing fresh seasonal produce. I’m a sucker for a summertime roadside vegetable stand with fresh-picked goodies from a local farm, like peaches, tomatoes, or zucchini. Produce this time of year is top-notch in terms of flavor and nutrition. And the season is here and gone so quickly I always like to get my fill!...

Baked Eggplant Recipe with Tomato (Paleo)

August 3, 2020 by Faith 10 Comments

This paleo Baked Eggplant Recipe pairs mild roasted eggplant with a richly spiced tomato sauce, nutty toasted almonds, and fresh mint. Normally as summer winds down I start to hoard summer vegetables. Cucumbers get pickled, tomatoes get stewed (for beautiful things like creamy tomato soup in the middle of winter), and zucchinis get baked. (By the way, that chocolate zucchini cake I linked to freezes well for up to 6 months if wrapped well!)...

Creamy Cucumber Salad Recipe

June 1, 2020 by Faith 11 Comments

With a base of mostly yogurt, this Creamy Cucumber Salad Recipe is lower in calories and fat, but still has all the flavor! A sprinkle of goat cheese (or feta) and fresh herbs really take the taste up a notch. I have had more than my fair share of cucumber salads in my day!...

Watermelon Salad Recipe with Feta

May 11, 2020 by Faith 13 Comments

Sweet and salty pair perfectly in this Watermelon Salad Recipe with Feta! It’s a delicious refreshing side dish for a hot summer day. Growing up, our summertime meals consisted mostly of fresh veggies. Sweet grilled corn on the cob. Sliced red tomatoes with my mom’s sweet creamy white dressing. Summer squash sautéed with garlic, olive oil, and salt. Steamed green beans with butter. Bowls of leafy greens....

April 3, 2020 by Faith 17 Comments

Healthier Roasted Gobi Manchurian (Indo-Chinese Cauliflower in a Spicy Sauce) is made in the oven, which is easier and healthier than frying! It’s crispy and delicious with a flavorful sweet and spicy sauce. If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you probably already know that I love Indian flavors....

Keto Pierogi Recipe with Mushroom Filling

January 17, 2020 by Faith 3 Comments

This Keto Pierogi Recipe makes perfect pierogies; crispy outside, chewy inside, stuffed with a savory mushroom filling. Top them with onions fried in butter, sour cream, and fresh dill! Lately I’ve had a serious craving for pierogis. Up in Buffalo, you can get amazing thick, cheese-filled pierogies from the grocery store (Wegmans, I’m looking at you, lol)....

Creamy Brussels Sprouts Salad

November 7, 2019 by Faith 12 Comments

This Creamy Brussels Sprouts Salad only has four ingredients, is full of crunch and has a rich, creamy, zippy dressing! It’s always a crowd-pleaser, and a great side dish year-round. I wish I could say that me and Brussels sprouts go way back, but we just don’t. Growing up, I wasn’t much of a picky eater, except for foods that were highly pungent. That basically eliminated things like sauerkraut, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts from my diet, lol....
