Has anyone had a pet get sprayed by a skunk? I hadn’t, until last weekend. My pooch decided to go investigate a funny looking cat across the street and BAM. Smelly Dog. Nothing like cleaning up a skunk-y dog at 9:30 pm on a weekend night. What would have really made it interesting would be…

BBQ Ranch Chicken-Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
I made these this week for one of my clients, and was legitimately sad that I didn’t get to eat them. I suppose I could always just prepare them at home right? If you’re pressed for time this meal can easily be prepared ahead of time by roasting the sweet potatoes, boiling the chicken, and making…
Links I Love
This one is a recipe edition because I made an epic amount of dishes today and none of them were my own (though I did make some adjustments… see below!) I love getting inspired by what other bloggers are doing and sharing the delicious love. Enjoy! Pomegranate Pork Belly from The Paleo Chef, Mary Shenouda…
Chocolate Chip Sweet Potato Bars
This is the result of complete recipe improvisation. I was scanning an old bread recipe and didn’t have the necessary ingredients on hand, so I swapped here, added there. The result was pretty incredible. I’m so glad that it was for a client because my husband and I were ready to consume the entire pan….
Ginger Butternut Soup
Cue rant. My husband just had an outpatient surgery to repair his hip (quite a bit of wear and tear from his childhood daredevil tendencies)Whilst coming out of anesthesia, and as his bones and cartilage are healing, I was instructed to provide him with “light food” such as “soda pop, jello, and broth”. First of all……
Crispy Sweet Potato Ribbons
I’m just gonna say it right off the bat… This is genius. From past posts, you could probably gather that I like making noodles out of vegetables. I’ve actually even made yam noodles before, but it just dawned on me the other day to put them in the oven! Kind of like hash browns, but more…
Turkey Club Sliders
It’s too hot to cook in Orange County! Solution: use the grill and make mini sandwiches 🙂 Here’s a great spin on my Breakfast Sliders… Turkey Club Sliders 1 large Sweet Potato (make sure they’re “fatter”, not skinny) 1/2 lb. sliced turkey meat 1 avocado 6 slices of bacon, cooked and cut in half lettuce…
Sweet Potato Mash
As the Fall season approaches, I find myself more and more looking for some yummy, warm, satisfying root vegetables, squashes, and exotic spices. Don’t get me wrong, I love yams at anytime of the year. But there’s something about the season that makes my body WANT root veggies. Tomatoes, watermelon, basil; These summer delights are…
Spanish Tortilla
This morning I woke up early and went on a little walk to admire a beautiful sky full of puffy clouds! It’s been pretty ridiculously hot here in LA, so I thought going on a walk earlier in the day was probably a pretty wise choice. Hey guess what?! It was my birthday this week!…
