Hmmmm…. what to make, what to make? There’s something about bringing a dish to someone else’s house that feels like a little extra tiny bit of pressure for it to be show-stopping. Right? So this week, I’ve got you covered my friends. With a cozy one-pot meal that’s always a crowd-pleaser (and sneaky little way […]

I had to wait until the weather actually turned, you know? And that it was official on that calendar (as of this week). To finally admit that Fall is here. To finally make that shift into the cozy, earlier eves, to cooking again, and actually enjoying the process (without the “stress” of doing some outdoors, […]

That’s right. It’s round-up time! A little collection of the best and my own favorite recipes on repeat over here this summer. The rules: 5 ingredients (ish) or less.

True story: the first time I ate a burger I was 25 years old. I know, what? But after years of growing up mostly vegetarian (aside for some chicken and turkey here and there), at 25, I’d never had any kind of red meat. I didn’t miss it, crave it or really know much about […]

I have to admit. When I cook a little homemade dinner, even after a crazy day, I feel like I’m winning at life. It’s like this soothing little routine that says- you got this mamma. It’s like wrapping yourself (and anyone lucky enough to be around you) up in this magical cozy goodness that promises […]

The Summer Meal Plan: Oh hi. Have we met? My name is Sarah and before you get your cute self down the page, there are TWO THINGS you should know: 1. I am never willing to sacrifice good food for fast food, because I know (and so fiercely believe) that you can have both.  2. I am […]

Every season, you guys know I get obsessed with one salad. ??‍♀️  Always a fan-girl of keeping things SIMPLE & super efficient, it then becomes my go-to for literally everything that season: busy work week lunches (if made ahead), quick dinners that don’t require tons of thought or planning, easy picnic nights, or bringing something […]

YES, I DO eat potatoes. White ones. Fries even, when we go out. And get this— with no shame. I’m actually proud of it, and love every crunchy or creamy little bite. Wanna know why? Because for most of my life, I avoided them like the plague. Because every diet out there says they’re evil. “Empty […]
