I certainly like to take a break from roasting brussels sprouts (or any other veggies, for that matter) in the summertime and find new ways to use my veggies. One of my favorite ways to use brussels sprouts is to shave them and use them in a salad; this one being my go-to. The shaved brussels […]

If you want an easy staple, always-a-hit fall/winter dish, this beef is IT. With the sweet and savory combo, the flavor profile is really tough to beat. This time I paired it with my Fall Kale Salad and a sweet potato mash, similar to my Kabocha Squash Mash. The crunch and bright acidity of the

I’m over here just getting cozy, breaking out all my easy Fall recipe go-to’s. This salad is a staple around here, and the add-ins are easily interchangeable. Here, I used dried cranberries sweetened with apple juice (I find them much less sugary, letting the bittersweet cranberry flavor shine) and sprouted, salted pumpkin seeds. Why sprouted?
This mash is the perfect simple accompaniment to any Fall meat dish. I frequently roast squash or tubers in the Fall to go with my main protein, and this variation only adds a couple minutes extra to prepare. You could use any winter squash variety or sweet potato. For this one, I used an orange

It’s pretty hard to resist the allure of dessert this time of year, and I firmly

I don’t know about you, but I’m loving Korean food these days, and there are a number of restaurants that have popped up in our area over the last few years, and they are to die for. But, these days with two little ones, it makes it a bit more challenging to get out…

So I’ve been making some version of this all summer. It’s a crowd-pleaser for sure (the crowd mostly being my kids!). And it’s so hands-off, I am loving it for days where we want to be outside until the last minute.

Pronounced his “favorite dinner of all time” by my husband, this tomato sauce is far and away the sweetest, most flavorful sauce you will make. With the whole tomatoes hand-mashed, it has a rustic feel to it that you don’t get with most tomato sauces. The addition of fresh basil lends brightness, while the parmesan
