delicious seasonal eats
Every year when Easter comes around, I am reminded of my grandmother and her colorful Easter Coconut Cake. There were two layers of light and fluffy white cake filled with fruit or cream and it was frosted with a basic white frosting. The topping was the most magical part – otherwise it would have been […]
Shirley J asked me to develop three recipes using their new Cranberry Almond Timeless Grains Cereal. I’ve had a lot of fun testing out my ideas and coming up with three great recipes. These Cranberry Almond Pie Bars are my third recipe. They took the longest for me to perfect and I feel like celebrating […]
(I’ve got Hawaii on the brain again. I have some posts in my draft folder from our trip to Oahu in 2011 that I’d love to share with you. Stay tuned for a few more in the weeks to come.) Pictures and text by Lindsey Rose Johnson We were fortunate to be able to travel […]
Pictures and text by Lindsey Rose Johnson. Vegetable rice rolls are one of my favorite go-to gluten-free snacks, lunches, dinners. They are so versatile–you can put practically anything inside those papery rice wrappers and call it good. I prefer mine chock full of raw veggies, and sometimes even some slices of fruit.

I’ve been having a lot of fun with the Kraft Fresh Takes recipe challenge. My kids have had fun helping me and planning what to make with the Rosemary & Roasted Garlic variety. As part of this campaign, I wanted to show you how I plan my weekly menu, with the help of my kids, […]
Becky and I are sharing healthy spinach recipes. Check out her recipe for Spinach-Almond Pesto over Pasta with Preserved Lemons. Doesn’t that sound delicious? I come up with silly names for my smoothies and juices. Do you ever do that? I’ve finally started juicing again. I pulled my Breville out of the cupboard where it […]
Happy Pi Day! Celebrate with this tasty Herbed Goat Cheese Tart! I think this is the first year I have actually made a pie (tart) for 3.14. I was reminded last night when I popped into the grocery store for a few things for dinner and saw a stack of pies by the automatic doors. […]
My mother texted me this morning asking for Rachel Allen’s Soda Bread recipe. And I couldn’t believe that I had omitted that from the Ballycotton Fish Chowder post. Doh! So here is the recipe for my mom and for all of you who I inadvertently left hanging on the promise of a fantastic Irish soda […]
