Roasted Wild Salmon with Citrus, Chiles & Herbs

photography by Kristen Kilpatrick If I had to choose my go-to meal for serving a big crowd when I’m short on time, there’s no question it would be a whole roasted side of salmon. It’s a trick that I picked up in my first job as an event planner for a catering company — we […]

Swirled Yogurt & Smoothie Bowl

photos by kristen kilpatrick Now that I’m eating breakfast more often, I’m faced with a new conundrum: how to make my morning meal healthy, quick, and most importantly, not boring. Since smoothies check all the boxes, I make one for brekkie most days of the week, but sometimes I just don’t want to drink my breakfast, ya […]

Rainbow Carrots with Yogurt & Pistachios

photography by Kristen Kilpatrick If there’s one menu item that’s a constant on our Easter table, it’s some type of roasted carrots. Not only are they on-theme (hello, bunny food!) but sweet spring carrots show off the bounty of the season and have so much natural flavor that they don’t even need to be messed […]

Spring Salmon and Veggie Grain Bowl

photos by Ashleigh Amoroso I’ve finally gotten Adam on the grain bowl train, and I couldn’t be happier about it. Used to be that my announcement that we were having a grain bowl for dinner (again) was met with an eye roll, but now I get more of an “okay, cool” response from him, so […]

Anti-Inflammatory Berry + Turmeric Muffins

For many years, I focused on health and wellness in terms of achieving a certain look. I was convinced that if I looked a certain way, it would make me feel a certain way. Wellness was synonymous with appearance and, well, in the end it resulted in unhealthy habits and a lack of a holistic […]

Gluten-Free Cauliflower Tabbouleh

I’m never one to replace glutenous recipe ingredients with gluten-free alternatives. I love my gluten, you guys, and I’ll never sub a bun for a lettuce wrap, or swap pizza crust for the cauliflower alternative. I get my love from gluten from my mama — the two of us always joke that we are food […]

Smoky Beet & Strawberry Salad with Gorgonzola

*photos by Ashleigh Amoroso The other day, I picked up a pint of strawberries at the grocery store, fully anticipating the bland, lackluster berries I’ve had to settle for all winter long. I brought them home, gave them a rinse, and was shocked to take a bite into a sweet-as-candy strawberry that made me realize: […]

I’ve always had visions of waking up on a Saturday morning and baking a rustic loaf of bread to enjoy all weekend long. For me, it feels like the essence of hygge… but a couple things stood in my way. First, the terminology of breadmaking (ie. yeast and rising and kneading and proofing) felt super intimidating.

How to Make Ceviche At Home (It’s Not That Hard)

photos by Ashleigh Amoroso When we were in Costa Rica a couple weeks ago, Adam and I couldn’t stop raving about the flavorful ceviche that was as incredible at roadside stands as it was at fine dining restaurants. I vowed to myself that I’d attempt to recreate it back home, so we had Hannah Yerby, […]

Make Someone’s Valentine’s Day With A Treat That Isn’t Sweet

Mackenzie Anne Smith is a woman after my own heart. What makes us kindred spirits, you ask? It’s simple: our shared belief that everything tastes better with a carby starchy doughy element. While I’ve perfected the art of eating things-stuffed-in-pastry (or, pocket foods as today’s guest would say) Mackenzie has mastered the art of actually making them on the […]
