delicious seasonal eats
Apple Breakfast Cookies are a powerhouse combo of whole grains, sweet and fiber-rich apples, and nut butter for a wholesome, filling grab-and-go breakfast or snack. Back in October, I went on a little road trip with my dear friend Kelly. We drove from where I live in Boise, Idaho up to Washington to visit some […]
Fill a plate with this colorful Sorghum Vegetable Salad tossed with a spicy Cumin-Lime Vinaigrette – it’s vegan, gluten-free, and absolutely delicious! Well, the spring is flying by faster than I can adequately enjoy it. I feel like winter drags on forever and then spring is gone in a snap. As I’m typing this, the […]
This Strawberry Rhubarb Sherbet recipe, which I originally posted in the early, early days of Cafe Johnsonia, remains one of our very favorites to this day. I know we typically think of rhubarb as a late spring/early summer thing, but I’ve still been seeing rhubarb all over at nearby farm stands. That’s a good thing because […]
Monday is the 4th of July here in the U.S. It’s always been one of my favorite holidays – the early morning pancake breakfasts, the laid back lunch at the pool or beach, evening BBQs, and of course, the fireworks. But mostly, I guess, for me it’s all about the fun food and drinks. I’ve […]
I think the very first time I even heard the word “pavlova” I was watching an episode of Martha Stewart Living. Martha made mini pavlovas that she formed into perfect spheres. When they came out of the oven and cooled completely, each one was broken in half through the middle and a perfect scoop of […]
This cobbler recipe was created in partnership with Pamela’s Products as part of the 2015 Baking Partner program. Well, spring whizzed by, didn’t it? It’s been a really busy few weeks and months, but I feel like I managed to really enjoy the nice weather, beautiful blossoms, and the return of some of my favorite fruits […]
April is here at least! The trees in our yard are full of fluffy blossoms. The days are getting longer. And I’ve been spending a little time each afternoon basking in it all as I ride my bike. Spring is wonderful! It’s also time for this month’s #EatSeasonal roundup. This month I’m sharing a recipe […]
Well, we’ve already gone through several pounds of asparagus in the past few days. I really resisted the urge to jump up and down when I saw fresh asparagus at the grocery store last week. It was like seeing a long, lost friend. Sure, asparagus might be available year round in some places, but that […]
Summer is well under way. Becky and I have teamed up again to share two new refreshing summer beverages with you. Her Pineapple Basil Breeze looks and sounds amazing! And I’m sharing this refreshing Golden Beet Lemonade. Both drinks taste like liquid summer. My husband thought I was crazy when I told him I wanted to […]
Thank you to Pacific Foods for sponsoring this recipe! This Millet Pudding is such a wholesome, healthy non-dairy dessert. There is such a thing! It is made with Pacific Foods Organic Unsweetened Almond Milk, a hint of maple syrup, and topped with slices of vibrant, ripe apricots and a sprinkling of sliced almonds for a little crunch.When I was […]
