delicious seasonal eats
This salad…is amazing. I have been patiently awaiting the arrival of pea shoots in my CSA share. And this is the week! If you’ve never had pea shoots before, you are in for a treat. Pea shoots are cut before the pea plants flower, or sometimes include the flowers, which are also edible. Peas greens […]
Besides soup, my favorite way to eat butternut squash is roasted. I like it in salads especially. It goes well with roasted apples and thyme. My house smelled so good as I was making this roasted butternut salad! All of the flavors of fall in one yummy salad. I made this vegan, but if you […]
Every once in awhile you meet a salad and you think, “This is my very favorite.” Then you come across another salad and the same thing happens. Well, friends, this salad is the salad that ended that for me. This is my very, very favorite salad. I’m ready to say my vows and pledge my […]
If you’re been reading for awhile, then you know that I love Thai food. We eat Thai several times a week because most of the family loves it (except my son who only eats the rice), it’s a good way to eat up our veggies, it’s delicious, and the most important reason of all–it’s fast. […]
This salad is the love child of tabbouleh and caprese salad. All of the greatness comes together for a rockin’ salad that is as healthy as it is delicious and will have you going back for seconds and thirds. My friend Amy was in town and in my evil plans to monopolize her whole day, […]
I was at Whole Foods in Downtown Salt Lake City last week, and guess what I saw? A big ol’ sign announcing they had Copper River Salmon. They had a big, beautiful fillet in the case that the guy at the counter told me it go very quickly. I told him I already had some […]
We love tabbouleh salad, but I haven’t made it since going gluten-free because it is made with bulgur wheat (which I love so much). I’ve seen all sorts of versions of tabbouleh made with quinoa instead. And we all know that someone (ME) loves quinoa. I threw this together for a quick late lunch on […]
I keep seeing these gorgeous raw vegetable salads all over the web and I wanted one for myself. So that’s what I made for lunch the other day. I started with beautiful, thinly sliced veggies… Added some other goodies, and ended up with this masterpiece of a salad: Pretty and fresh. Healthy and tasty. Win, […]
Remember what I said about salad with ranch dressing a few days ago? I meant that gloopy, greasy, overly sweet stuff from the bottle. Not this glorious creamy dressing that might as well be from heaven. My husband claimed to hate ranch dressing until I started making it from scratch. Truthfully, I didn’t even like […]
Yesterday I ran up to La Nay Ferme before I took my youngest to her fabulous art class to pick up my pot of broccoli microgreens. I really, really, really love microgreens and broccoli microgreens are so good. I thought about how I wanted to use them for my lunch yesterday. It had been awhile […]
