Apparently Colombians are wayyyy better at guacamole than anyone else. I’m so fired up about this version that I’ve been putting it on everything. In salads, on eggs, on meatballs, inside rolled deli meat, spoonfuls straight in my mouth! There’s a blended mix of chilies, onion, and cilantro as well as hard-boiled eggs. The flavor…

White Balsamic Cranberry Sauce
You remember that bottle of white balsamic vinegar that’s just chilling in the back of your pantry because you bought it for that one salad dressing that one time? Well, it’s your lucky day because I have something incredible for you to make that will utilize your lonely vinegar. This sauce has the classic holiday…
Fennel Mint Tuna Salad
Some of my favorite meals are completely accidental or born out of a mega change in plans or circumstance. This is one of those meals. I had really great plans for a client’s weekly prep, but plans changed and we took the week off. The problem was, I had already purchased some ingredients for the…
Whole 30 Wrap Up: Week 3
One more week of whole30ness. I actually ended up taking a week off from Whole 30 to enjoy visiting with my family from Idaho. I knew they were coming ahead of time and I recognized that it would be unrealistic to expect myself to avoid some treats and wine during their visit. We love to…
Prosciutto Potato Pancakes
Give me all the carbs. Seriously though, carbs are my friend right now. Between breastfeeding and the added stress of motherhood, carbohydrates are an essential part of my meals and snacks. I would urge anyone who is experiencing a lot of life stress, engaging in vigorous exercise, or breastfeeding to incorporate adequate amounts of carbs…
Banana Blueberry Bread
Here I am again! 6 weeks postpartum which I guess is some magical time when my body is *mostly* recovered and things should start to normalize in newborn-land. Well, I’m not sure what normal looks like anymore but I definitely feel like I’m getting in the swing of things. Can’t say for sure that I feel…
Carrot, Apple, and Bacon Slaw
I feel like hot weather should warrant its own category of recipes. You know what I’m talking about. The kind of oppressive heat and humidity that makes oven or stove top cooking masochistic at best and completely impossible at worst. That was this week for me. I think I made salad for lunch and dinner multiple days…
Lemon Rosemary Deviled Eggs
This past weekend was the Easter holiday and I was very happy to host some friends and their adorable baby girl for brunch! I love all things breakfast, especially when they include sweets! Our guests were kind enough to bring some incredible gluten-free cookies to share. To break up all the cookie eating, we also…
Fudge Drizzle Cookies
Do you guys remember those Keebler Elves commercials with the tree cookie factory that made the ‘fudge stripe’ cookies and the Rainbow ones with the REAL M&M’s in them?! Man, that’s a throwback to my childhood tv days for sure. The only thing I liked more than TV was probably those cookies. The double stuffed…
Stuffed Peppers with Carrot Top Pesto
Do you get a CSA box? Or shop at a farmer’s market? If you do, then you probably get carrots with the greens still attached. AND THEN you probably throw them away. In my experience, most local markets take them off before they’re even placed on the sales floor. Even in a place like Whole…
