Build-Your-Own Soba Noodle Bowls

Buckwheat soba noodles are my current jam. I never really cooked with them until recently when I started experimenting with some Asian noodle-y dishes, and now I can’t get enough. Their heartiness can stand up to all kinds of raw and cooked vegetables, and since they’re bursting with nutty flavor, they really don’t need the cheese […]

Nacho Party!

Y’all know that we love a good fiesta around here (especially as Cinco de Mayo approaches!) and last week the girls and I got together for an afternoon shindig on my back patio with grapefruit-jalapeno margaritas and my new favorite party menu… a build-your-own nacho bar! Since Garden of Eatin’ invited us to take part in […]

Raw Broccoli Chopped Salad

This time of year, my craving for a refreshing, healthy salad is just about insatiable. And while I can’t live without the go-to kale or arugula variety, a weeklong marathon of the same salad on repeat usually has me longing for something other than leafy greens and veggies topped with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Enter my […]

Detox Kale Salad

photographed by belathée When we interviewed Marissa Lippert and her best friend Katie back in September for our Besties series we couldn’t help but swoon over the beautiful salads Marissa dished up at her Manhattan café  Nourish Kitchen + Table. Her engage-all-senses approach to food is what has made Nourish a healthy hotspot in the […]

Pumpkin Spice Tacos

The fervor with which people rush to Starbucks to have their first Pumpkin Spice Latté of the season has become almost cliché; this year our neighborhood store launched it earlier than ever, and I observed customers actually sweating in the still-90 degree heat while they savored their first spicy sips. Even to a non-flavored coffee gal like […]

Three Amazing Sandwich Recipes

If you’re a regular reader, you may have caught on to the fact that Camille loves salads — she eats one for lunch most days of the work week, and is usually really, really excited about them. Typically, I’d make fun of her disproportionate salad enthusiasm, but to be totally honest, I’m the same way with my […]

Tuesday Tastings :: Build-Your-Own Tartines

There’s this adorable French bistro in Austin called Blue Dahlia, and I love to meet friends there for a late lunch or a glass of wine to sample a couple of their tartines. Since this month is all about getting outside and soaking up the spring sunshine, we’ve had picnics on the brain: which foods […]

The Super Foodie :: Napa Cabbage Wraps

I’m obsessed with these cabbage wraps not only because I think they’re so beautiful, but because they’re incredibly tasty and satisfying. I attribute that in large part to the peanut dipping sauce which is salty, packed with flavor and such a treat. They’re delicious…that’s really what you need to know! In addition to being wildly […]
