delicious seasonal eats
Blackberry Coconut Sorbet. Three ingredients. No dairy. Little sugar. Pure bliss. And? (Come closer…) No ice cream maker needed. I know. It’s pretty awesome. Coconut milk is my favorite non-dairy milk. It’s such a good substitute for cows milk because it’s still super creamy and rich, but then cows milk doesn’t taste like coconut. And […]
Saturday night, after a full day of hard work and chores, I made the first batch of homemade ice cream for the season. Blackberry Rosewater Ice Cream. It’s as dreamy as it sounds. I’ve teamed up with Becky this month again and our theme was Flowers. She chose orange blossom water. Be sure to check […]
Text and images by Lindsey Rose Johnson As Spring is here and Summer is quickly approaching, it’s a great time to think about all the delicious fruits and vegetables that will be growing in our gardens, hitting the roadside stands and appearing in our CSAs. Whether or not you buy organic produce, it’s helpful […]
As if there weren’t enough cookies in my cupboard, I made another batch of cookies that I’m so excited to share with you. You know, just to shake it up with all the healthy salads and stuff. Mango White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies. Hello, tasty cookies! I’ve been wanting to make these cookies for a […]
On Tuesday morning I was feeling particularly stressed out about all of the things I needed to accomplish this week. It’s been such a long week. I’m still behind on some freelance projects I’ve got going on. In the midst of all of this work stuff, I managed to completely forgot it was my son’s […]

The spinach I’ve been getting in my CSA is gorgeous. It’s easy to find ways to eat up my leafy greens each week. One of my new favorite ways uses up a whole pound of fresh spinach in one go–Malfatti with Simple Tomato Sauce. Malfatti means “poorly made” in Italian. Or something like that. They […]
As promised, the recipe for the Layered Greek-Style Chickpea Salad. Truly, I haven’t met a chickpea salad I haven’t loved. But this one is the best I’ve ever made. I attribute that to all the goodies layered in the bowl with the chickpeas. Aren’t the layers pretty? It makes it look a little more special, […]
My family often requests chicken gyros for dinner. It’s totally a family favorite. My oldest daughter loves those gyros and has ever since she was a year old. Tzatziki sauce is her favorite condiment. Her other love is shrimp. So this recipe is for her–three of her very favorite things in one–Rosemary and Roasted Garlic […]
