These chicken nuggets may be my family’s favorite meal. I get cheers when they hit the table and hardly ever have leftovers. And since they’re made with healthier ingredients, it’s a parent-win as well. They are crispy and flavorful on the outside, but tender and juicy on the inside. Perfect for dipping in your favoriteContinue reading “Favorite Chicken Nuggets”

Zucchini Cornbread
Lots of zucchini everywhere right now and I’m here for it! I love using zucchini in cornbread because it helps keep it deliciously moist. These come together fast and are perfect for a summer side – savory, sweet, herby, and salty. And to give them that little something extra, I’d go ahead and drizzle themContinue reading “Zucchini Cornbread”
Napa Peanut Slaw
This slaw is the perfect side to your summer main. It is crunchy and peanut-y and lemony with a delicious subtle heat. We served ours with salmon, rice and sautéed green tonight and I fished up the leftovers for lunches all week. And with it done in less than 15 minutes, it’s an easy recipeContinue reading “Napa Peanut Slaw”
Quattro Fromaggio Pizza
This may be the perfect pizza. Extra cheesy and packed with flavor, you’d never know this was done in less than 20 minutes. Mushrooms, lots of green onions and spinach give this a delicious earthy bite that gets a kick with some chili and some saltiness from the feta. I also love to grill thinContinue reading “Quattro Fromaggio Pizza”

Greens Galette
We got this beautiful rainbow chard in our CSA box this week and it made me think of a delicious galette I tried once. To make my version, I used this flaky cornmeal pastry and a delicious combination of sautéed greens, thyme and portobello mushrooms that combined with parmesan cheese? Just melts in your mouth.Continue reading “Greens Galette”
Everyday Mushroom Pho

With umami flavors, extra delicious toppings, and healthy ingredients, thisContinue reading “Everyday Mushroom Pho”
Coconut Lime Cake
We had an excess of limes this weekend and this cake sure put them to good use! It is fluffy and buttery, filled with tropical flavors and soaked in a honey lime syrup that simply celebrates summer. Topped with whipped cream, it’s the perfect dessert for that barbecue or brunch on the patio. This recipeContinue reading “Coconut Lime Cake”
Cashew Vegetable Curry
This weeknight curry is so delicious and so easy. Filled with healthy ingredients and warm spices, it’s perfect served over rice or topped with some Greek yogurt. I top mine with my favorite crispy paneer (see my curry lettuce wrap recipe!). This recipe is vegan, gluten-free and done in less than 45 minutes. You canContinue reading “Cashew Vegetable Curry”
Grilled vegetables with cumin-spiced dressing
I love serving this as a side dish to samosas or adding chickpeas to make it a protein-packed main dish. It’s subtly sweet, a bit smoky, and deliciously spiced with freshly ground cumin and coriander seeds. If you haven’t tried grinding spices before, I hope this will convince you to give it a shot. It’sContinue reading “Grilled vegetables with cumin-spiced dressing”
