Easter Brunch Fruit Smoothies

We had the BEST time cooking up Easter treats with our favorite little sous chefs at Patricia’s Table earlier this month (did you catch these Easter Egg Pancakes?) I had to share the adorable and completely delish fruit smoothies that we mixed up with the kids. Patricia, the owner of our favorite kids’ cooking school, says […]

Sea Salt & Olive Oil Granola

I truly love homemade granola. It’s always so much better (and cheaper) than store-bought and makes your house smell amazing. The options are really endless with the different fruits, nuts, grains and seeds you can throw in, and the best part? Almost any variation will taste amazing. There’s nothing better than having a batch of homemade […]

No-Guilt Chips + Queso

Whenever my out-of-town friends land in Austin, it seems like they’re united in a single-minded mission: to eat as much Tex-Mex as humanly possible while they’re here. Recently, while briefing one of them on the merits of various breakfast taco spots, I was shocked to learn that she’d never heard of queso. Wha?! In Texas, queso […]

Oven Risotto with Tuscan Kale Pesto

Spring doesn’t last long here in Austin—whether the days are brisk or balmy, we all rush out on Saturday mornings to soak up as much as we can before things start heating up. We’re richly rewarded for getting up early too-market stalls are flush with tender, delectable spring greens, lettuces, sweet crunchy carrots, and the […]

Shaved Squash Salad with Marcona Almonds & Feta

This is one of my very favorite salad recipes, and also one of the simplest. And it celebrates the fact that it’s almost zucchini season!! Since Easter is approaching, thought it would be fun to share one of the recipes from the spring brunch in Camille Styles Entertaining — the menu also includes an asparagus & bacon […]

“What’s Up Doc” Carrot-Ginger Cocktail

Even while pregnant, I’m not typically one to order a “mocktail” — they’re usually supersweet and lack the interesting aspects of their alcoholic counterparts, and I’d rather just drink an iced tea or grapefruit juice. However, when Adam and I were in Napa last month, I discovered a serious exception to the rule. While hanging at the […]

Easter Egg Pancakes

Lately I’ve started letting Phoebe “help out” in the kitchen: she was my devoted sous chef on last weekend’s pizza dough, and she singlehandedly added all the ingredients to a batch of zucchini muffins the other day. It definitely gets messy and undoubtedly takes longer than if I just cook something myself, but we have […]

Raw Kale Caesar with Beet Microgreens & Poached Egg

Raw kale caesar salads are one thing I never tire of. They’re hearty with a great bite & brightness making them the most satisfying meal ever.  I like mine with a few hippie add-ons and poached egg for breakfast (or anytime of day). This almond caesar dressing is naturally dairy-free, but has the bold, zingy flavor that every […]

Lavender Pistachio Madeleines

Madeleines may have found their place in history thanks to Proust, but these buttery scalloped cakes are undoubtedly delicious enough to stand on their own, literary references aside. I’ve loved them for years, and can’t believe I actually had to purchase a madeleine pan to make these at home for the first time ever. The […]
