A few weeks ago, I had the lovely job of creating a line of amazing brunch recipes for my friends at Blueprint Registry (side note, for anyone that’s getting married, this company is AMAZING. They are changing the game for wedding registries, making it way easier to gather items that you love and will actually […]

You wanna know what’s crazy? This salad. Along with the Pesto Kale Salad, this is the dish that I make the most often in my kitchen (to eat myself), and bring everywhere, converting people to lentil lovers. It works, in case you were wondering. I actually can’t think of a party or dinner that I […]

I have strong feelings about this. A little warning before you read. Contrary to what you might think, I think there is a right and a not-so-helpful way to eat your veggies. Which is obnoxious, I realize, because eating veggies at all is a good thing, and something I would/should always encourage. And I do, mostly. […]

Today, I’m sharing one of my all time favorite healthy appetizers from the Simply Real Health Cookbook (pg. 273 for those of you that have your books!)

I’ll admit it, I used to be a canned cranberry sauce-a-holic. That poor turkey on my plate was just a vehicle.  The potatoes, a mini bumper lane for the goey globs of that sweet purple sauce, all over the place. You know, back in my teenage days before I knew about real food. And, no wonder. […]

I know it sounds weird. This is not a guacamole dessert. I promise. But just like avocados that get blended into green smoothies, you can’t really taste it. Blended avocado often just makes recipes a bit more creamy + decadent. Healthy too. And satisfying because of it’s great healthy fat content. But without any guilt, […]

Yuuup. Back with Round 2. I blame it on the scary proximity to my house. Seriously. I have more of a problem restraining myself from a casual 3 block stroll to Trader Joe’s, than I do passing by the beautiful hand foraged doughnut shop, organic coffee + pastry shop, and brick fired oven pizza restaurant […]
