Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
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!)…
This Cheeseburger Soup recipe has all the flavors of a classic burger, but in soup form so it’s perfect cold-weather comfort food! If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you probably know that I enjoy traveling. I love experiencing new cultures or even just new regions, and immersing myself in the foods the locals eat. But I’d be lying if I said I don’t enjoy coming back home and returning to my routine....
This delicious Vegetable Beef Alphabet Soup has a flavorful broth and tons of veggies! Fun alphabet pasta makes it as fun for kids and adults as it is nutritious. I know alphabet soup is usually toddler food. Its right up there with bananas smeared with peanut butter and smiley-face-shaped sandwiches. I have a confession though: I might occasionally still like kid favorites....
This Thai Noodles Recipe with Vegetables and Chicken (Soy Sauce Noodles) was inspired by my trip to Thailand! It’s packed with flavor thanks to a sweet, salty, umami sauce, and is loaded with vegetables and chicken. Sometimes something happens that you just can’t get out of your head. It could be someone you meet or a place you visit, or even something that seems so much more mundane like a food you eat. But for whatever reason it speaks to you....
30-Minute Low-Carb Sesame Vegetable Beef Stir Fry is a great way to get a healthy family-friendly meal on the table fast! When all else fails and you and/or the fam are on the verge of hangry, stir fry is the perfect answer. It’s a great way to get a nutritious meal on the table fast, and you can also use it as a tool to clean out the fridge (swap in veggies that need to get used up!). And as a bonus over take-out, homemade stir fry isn’t loaded with sugar, MSG, and gluten....
Middle Eastern Spiced Green Beans with Olive Oil and Tomato (Loubieh bil Zayt) is a dish that’s simple to make, but complex in flavor. This dish is heady with aromatic spices, onion, and garlic, and the green beans take on a nutty flavor after being toasted in olive oil. I don’t think there’s anything more intimate than sharing a meal with someone. Food is so deeply intertwined in who we are…meals our moms made for special occasions growing up will always be special. Holiday foods remain festive in our minds and are reserved for once a year. And there’s nothing quite like the feeling of […]...
Gluten and Lactose-Free Stovetop Cauliflower “Macaroni” and Cheese is just 30 minutes to cheesy perfection…you won’t even miss the pasta! Mmm, mac and cheese, is the mantra filling my head every fall when the weather turns chilly and I start craving comfort food. There’s something about carby pasta enrobed in creamy cheese sauce that speaks to my soul....
Paleo Smoky Roasted Garlic Cauliflower “Rice” with Toasted Almonds is a delicious grain-free side dish that comes together easily and pairs well with any number of things. My husband is a real meat and potatoes man; and when I say meat, anything will do except pork (which we don’t eat), and by potatoes I mean starch of any kind (usually some form of pasta, bread, rice, or potatoes). You can imagine my surprise when he told me earlier this year that he wanted to cut way back on starchy foods as well as sugar! I was as happy as a lark, armed with low-carb versions […]...
This Chickpea Garden Vegetable Soup is a celebration of summer’s produce in healthy comfort food form. This time of year I’m always torn between wanting a salad or a big old plate of grilled vegetables for dinner, or something a little more substantial like soup. Summer produce is still going strong and this soup gives you the best of both worlds....
The first time I ever dyed my hair was freshman year in college. I’m naturally a dirty blonde (which I have always thought was quite an unfortunate term for hair color), and decided to go a little lighter. It was so ridiculously similar to my natural color, it wasn’t even worth the effort....
