I’m not the biggest cauliflower fan, but I recently got a head in my Imperfect Foods box. I don’t hate it, but it’s not something I’ll go out of my way for. Unless it’s coated in hot sauce, like this recipe for baked buffalo cauliflower bites. Truth is, I’ve never had anything coated in hot [...]
Hot honey is not a new thing at this point; it’s on pizza’s everywhere these days, and you can even buy it at most local grocery stores. But how about homemade hot honey? If you’ve never had it, it’s the perfect combination of sweet and spicy. It’s a great condiment to have on hand if [...]
I love nut butters, of all kinds, but especially homemade cashew butter. Delicious on toast, in smoothies, in baked goods. Or even by the spoon. I’ve got several jars in my pantry right now — some made of almonds and coconut, and one that even has chocolate and crisped rice. There are lots of ways [...]
Curried chickpeas sound like something you’ve had before. But not this way. Eating healthy can be a drag sometimes, but it helps if you have a few super healthy foods that you love. Especially if those foods are easy to turn into something that seems unhealthy. These chickpeas are not the boring ones you see [...]
I love cherry granola. On yogurt. On oatmeal (yes, sounds weird, but try it!) Or on its own. Sometimes I buy it. But sometimes I make it because I get flavor combos in my head that I can’t find at the store. Like this one. Tart cherries and toasty sesame seeds. Other than those, you [...]
I spend a lot of time during the start of a new year trying to come up with creative, healthy snack ideas. Because I love snacks, but don’t get any satisfaction crunching carrots and celery, no matter what you dip them in. This recipe was inspired from a combination of all my favorite snacks — yogurt, [...]
Halloumi avocado toast is an easy lunch that is tasty and nutritious. Sometimes simple is best. Sometimes when you don’t have it in you to make a big meal. Or you don’t have the groceries. Or you don’t even know what you would make if you could make anything. I often eat cheese and crackers [...]
Oven baked fries are a tough one. I’ve made them lots of times, because fries are a satisfying side dish and sometimes you just don’t want to (or these days, can’t) go out to get them. And deep frying in the house is rarely a thing that’s worth the trouble. So I’ve been trying to perfect [...]
Groceries have been kind of all over the place lately, both when it comes to price and availability of certain things. When your job relies on a lot of grocery shopping, this makes life difficult. While things have calmed down a bit for now, a couple weeks ago I saw potatoes on sale, and picked [...]
Sometimes getting dinner on the table is rough. I know every night should be something delicious and elaborate, but that’s not always how life works, especially right now. I’m not gonna lie — sometimes a good cheese plate is my dinner. It usually requires no cooking, and I almost always have various components in my [...]
Here's all the social media sites people tell me I need to be on. You can (kinda) find me on these. The only one guaranteed to get you a quick response is email, so try that first.
