This is a sponsored post. Thank you for supporting our sponsors so we can bring you great content and recipes. If you remember from last month, we’ve been trying out Barramundi, a farm-raised, sustainable white fish from Vietnam. We are still in love with it! When I was at the store the other day, I stocked […]
Rachel Allen’s Ballycotton Fish Chowder
For a very long time, I have been wanting a good Irish cookbook. Not just to use for St. Patrick’s Day, though it is that time of year again. I haven’t made a lot of Irish food because I haven’t known that much about it. My internet searches usually turn up recipes for Corned Beef […]
Avocado, Citrus, Red Pepper and Cucumber Salad with Ginger and Lemongrass Dressing
Something I’ve been trying to do the last little while is sit down and enjoy my meals. I’m busy. (You are too.) And I find myself grabbing something quick (and sometimes not that healthy) on the run or between camera shots or errands or picking up kids from school. It’s paaaainful to sit down and […]
Slow Cooker Vegan White Bean Stew
Before we indulged in our decadent dessert on Sunday night, we enjoyed a very healthy vegan white bean stew that I made in my slow cooker. Slow cooking is such a great way for me to save time (and money) and still make healthy meals for my family. I’m a big fan of making a […]
Recipe for Meyer Lemon Vinaigrette
Meyer lemons are the hybrid of mandarin oranges and true lemons. Also, they are my favorite citrus fruit. I look forward to these sweet lemons all year long and buy them almost by the bushel. They make the best lemon curd ice cream. Really good (and slightly extravagant) lemonade. And the base for my favorite […]
Vegan Banana Squash Coconut Curry
It has been snowing for about 24 hours and it’s been lovely. We haven’t had real snow for weeks. As much as I’ll dread slick roads tomorrow morning, tonight I am enjoying being inside looking at the Christmas tree twinkling in the background as I edit photos and dream about the unhealthy Holiday treats I’m […]
Leek and Root Vegetable Gratin
Thanksgiving is over and I will breathe a huge sigh of relief when I’ve finally finished the dishes. I didn’t quite get to all of the side dishes I wanted to make. Instead I’ll make them throughout the next week or so. I have all of the ingredients after all. I started first with this […]
Cider-Mustard Glazed Roasted Root Vegetables
We’ve entered my favorite time of year. Halloween is over. Let the Thanksgiving baking, roasting, cooking begin! Over the next few weeks I’ll be sharing some great recipes to help get you in the mood for the holiday season. I confess I’m boring. I really love roasted veggies. So much, in fact, that I hardly […]
Honey Thyme Homemade Cough Syrup
Awhile back a friend of mine told me that thyme was a great natural remedy for coughs and colds. I made this Honey Thyme Homemade Cough Syrup to reap the benefits of both honey and thyme in fighting off germs and helping to relieve those uncomfortable symptoms of colds. Health Benefits of Honey and Thyme […]
Hearty Kale, Butternut, Barley Soup
My husband and I have come to an agreement on healthy eating. Well, that’s not entirely true. He and I agree we need to get back to our super healthy eating habits, but we haven’t agreed on how to do it. I say juicing is key. He can barely gag it down. I say vegan. […]
