Roasted Carrot and Avocado Salad

*editor’s note: This is the first post in our new “Market Fresh” series, in which Elizabeth Winslow, one of our favorite cooks and food writers, will be spotlighting good-for-you recipes using the freshest seasonal ingredients. She’s kicking it off with a salad that I tasted at her house a few years ago and haven’t been able to stop […]

Mini Dill Frittatas

Like many of us, I’m trying to cook and eat as pure as possible these days.  It’s a little cold for green smoothies every morning, so I’m opting for another simple & wholesome breakfast.  These mini frittatas take almost no time at all, and are the perfect breakfast for an easy weeknight breakfast or weekend […]

Linguine with Kale & Caramelized Onions

For some, it’s online shopping, for others, it’s their boxed set of Lost DVD’s… I, personally, get more than a tiny bit obsessive about new cookbooks (seriously, it’s a problem.) Over the holidays, I literally couldn’t stop reading At Home in the Whole Food Kitchen, the new vegetarian cookbook by chef Amy Chaplin. The mouthwatering photos, nourishing and simple […]

10 Best Detox Drinks

When I submitted my New Year’s resolution to this post last week, I wasn’t being entirely truthful. While I did mention that I’d resolved to be more of a morning person, I didn’t list the other half dozen resolutions I’ve embraced — probably more than any one person can realistically take on.

With their impeccable tastes, but “not always so perfect cakes”, they also instilled the mantra […]

Spiced Candied Pecans & Pomegranate Yogurt Cups

With all the Christmas cookies and treats going around, now is the time to start the day on a lighter note.  This yogurt cup is almost entirely healthy with just a hint of spiced decadence (it is the holidays, after all!) This makes the perfect pairing for chai tea and gift-wrapping. Happy holidays!

Fig, Ricotta, & Almond Flatbread

I think this year was the first time I stopped by the farmer’s market, saw figs and actually wanted to buy them. I know, I know. It seems crazy that something so sweet, delicious, and versatile wouldn’t have made it onto my shopping list before, but I just didn’t know how to eat them. Growing up […]

10 Best Holiday Party Appetizers

One of my favorite holiday traditions is my family’s annual Christmas party every December. We spend several days cooking and preparing our party spread, complete with my dad’s Swedish meatballs, my mom’s caramelized onion and feta cheese pizza, and my selection of seasonal desserts. Then on a Sunday night, we fill our house with dear […]
