Dukkah Recipe (Egyptian Herb and Spice Mix)

May 6, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

This Dukkah Recipe (Egyptian Herb and Spice Mix) is a savory, nutty herb and spice blend that packs a punch of flavor and crunch.

Pictured above is my Low Carb Flatbread recipe from The Keto Queens. Paleo Flatbread would also be delicious!

When I lived in and visited the Middle East, one of my favorite things to shop for was spices. The spice shops were vibrant; full of heady, exotically-spiced air, a rainbow of colors, and of course all the usual clamor that goes along with your typical lively marketplace.…

April 16, 2018 by Faith 2 Comments

The Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival is the perfect way to celebrate spring! With stunning flowers, delicious food, and fun concerts, there’s something for everyone. One of the things that makes Epcot so special is that it has various festivals going on throughout the year. The foliage, food, and entertainment is different for each festival, so you’re getting to experience something new each time. It would be really hard to pick a favorite festival, but I will say that if you have a green thumb or appreciation for gardens, you won’t want to miss the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival!...

Epcot International Festival of the Arts at Walt Disney World

January 24, 2018 by Faith 1 Comment

Epcot International Festival of the Arts at Walt Disney World is a celebration of food, entertainment, and art for the whole family. One of the coolest things about Epcot is that it has so many festivals going on throughout the year. As a result, I think it’s one of the most (if not the most!) dynamic theme park experience I’ve ever been to. For each festival, the food and entertainment changes, and this festival in particular has the added bonus of beautiful art....

September 29, 2017 by Faith 2 Comments

Disney Pandora – The World of Avatar at Disney’s Animal Kingdom is an immersive experience with beautiful sights, sounds, and attractions, as well as delicious food that the entire family will enjoy. I’m always amazed at how innovative Disney is. Just when you think they couldn’t possibly be any more creative, they pull out all the stops and once again leave us all mind-blown. If you’ve seen the movie Avatar and were amazed at their world, you’re about to be even more so. Located inside Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Pandora – The World of Avatar, puts you into the movie approximately a generation after the conflict ended […]...

Polish Cold Beet Soup (Chłodnik)

August 29, 2016 by Faith 3 Comments

Polish Cold Beet Soup (Chłodnik) is a variation of red borscht that’s served cold during hot summer months. Its sweet/sour flavor is refreshing and its rich pink color makes it as pretty as it is delicious. Here you go. The waitress set down huge bowls of cold borscht and hurried off. It was the prettiest shade of fuchsia with flecks of fresh green dill peeking through, and quartered hard-boiled egg adorned the top of each bowl....

10-Minute Cinnamon-Almond Mocha Pudding

July 8, 2016 by Faith 7 Comments

10-Minute Cinnamon-Almond Mocha Pudding is a beautiful pairing of simple flavors. In May, Mike and I celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary in Costa Rica. We weren’t there for long, just enough time to take in some stunning views, relax a bit, get a taste of the regional cuisine, do a little local shopping, and explore a coffee plantation....

Steak, Ale, and Mushroom Pot Pies {Paleo}

March 28, 2016 by Faith 6 Comments

Steak, Ale, and Mushroom Pot Pies make a hearty paleo dinner; you can serve the stew as-is or whip up the quick paleo crust to turn them into adorable little pot pies. When Liz from Sprouted Routes reached out to me with the idea of working on a collaborative post, I was pretty excited; from early on in our conversation I discovered that we have a lot in common. Liz is into healthy treats, Indian food, and yoga, and she can whip up a pretty fabulous salad. Liz is also a traveler and when she mentioned her love for Damascus, I knew we were kindred […]...
