Happy Summer, officially! Today is the day I make lots of lists of things I want to accomplish over the next two months since my cooking class schedule is super light. Two months from now, I will look back on said list and wonder where the time went and how is it possible that I got none of it done ...
Crostini with Burrata and Blackberry-Thyme Chia Jam Recipe
I have really cut back significantly on flour-based foods like pasta, bread, and baked goods. Part of the reason is to maintain better blood sugar stability/lower inflammation and part of the reason is the prevalence of glyphosate in non-organic grains. That said, I am no perfectionist and I ...
Dinner Planner – Week of June 17th, 2019
Happy Weekend and Happy (almost) Summer! I just landed in Pittsburgh to visit my younger daughter who has an internship here for the summer. I’ve only been to Pittsburgh twice before, and very briefly, so I’m excited to spend a few days alone with her in the city. Because I am here for Father's ...
Cherry-Vanilla Yerba Mate Smoothie
This post is sponsored by the National Institute for Argentine Yerba Mate. All opinions are my own. It's smoothie season! I never drink smoothies or smoothie bowls or anything cold for that matter when the weather is anything less than warm. Cold drinks and foods, as well as too much raw food, ...
Dinner Planner – Week of June 10th, 2019
My son's last day of school is this Wednesday and I am looking forward to him having a bit of a break. I am personally looking forward to having a break from making lunches. Have I mentioned that before? (I'm pretty sure I have LOL.) One of my daughters has an internship in Pittsburgh for the ...
Cauliflower Steaks Caprese Recipe
I made this recipe up on a whim last week and posted rough instructions on my Instagram, but I received too many DM's requesting an exact recipe, so I decided to post here. In a nutshell, you roast cauliflower steaks and top them with ricotta (in this case I used Kite Hill vegan almond milk ...
Dinner Planner – Week of June 3rd, 2019
Sorry for the delay in this week's dinner planner. Wordpress was having some glitches, but all is resolved! I know many schools are out for summer already. Wow! My son still has another week and a half, but I told him I am done with making lunches. Perhaps I am a less than ideal mother in the ...
Grilled Carrots with Tahini Sauce Recipe
I had written an Instagram post about how I love grilling vegetables of all kinds. I love a simple grilled veggie platter with or without a sauce or dressing on the side. I especially love chopped grilled vegetables in a salad like this one. If grilling is an easy way for you to cook, then by all ...
Dinner Planner – Week of May 27th, 2019
It's Memorial Day weekend and I always feel very pensive and grateful during this holiday. And I always feel a bit sad, too. I know a lot of us are excited to have an extra day off, but I am taking some time to reflect on the ultimate sacrifice many of our servicemen and women made to allow us the ...
Dinner Planner – Week of May 20th, 2019
Memorial Day weekend is next weekend and I am stunned. Stunned. Oh this year is slipping between my fingers. But the thought of summer being so close is beyond exciting to me! Someone asked me in my class the other day what is the first step I take when I sit down to make my dinner planner for ...
Moo Shu Vegetable Lettuce Wraps with Peanut Sauce Recipe
Can you believe I am still digging through all my new cookbooks?? This week's recipe comes from the new book of my friends Adam and Ryan, also known as @HusbandsThatCook. I was lucky enough to be invited to their lovely launch party at their home a few weeks ago and was gifted a copy of their ...
