Asparagus, Quinoa, & Rice Salad with Goat Cheese & Maple-Tahini Dressing

This post is sponsored by Mars SEEDS OF CHANGE® and Target It’s become a running Thanksgiving joke at our house. Each year when I start planning the menu for our family feast, everyone else votes to have the exact same menu items as last year, but I just can’t help myself from spicing things up with something a little different.

Boursin Cheese Witch Fingers

Just a few weeks until Halloween and I swear I could celebrate this holiday forever. To me, there’s simply no challenge more fun than figuring out how to make things spooky but also beautiful (see our spine-chilling but chic Halloween dinner party for the evidence!) and today’s Halloween appetizer recipe is another example of that. Because let’s be […]

Sheet Pan Roasted Chili-Orange Salmon with Garlic & Green Veggies

Does anyone else feel like these early fall weeks are possibly the most insane time of year? It seems like work, travel, social stuff, and kids activities all conspire with each other to happen at the exact same time in October, and in years past I’ve definitely allowed myself to become overwhelmed and just hope that […]

Healthy Caramel Apples

One of my favorite elements on the table at our wickedly gorgeous Halloween dinner party were the delicious and surprisingly healthy caramel apples that nixed the butter and sugar, but still felt like a major treat (because it is Halloween, after all.) The “caramel” sauce is made from medjool dates and coconut oil for the most addictive all-natural sweetness —  a few of the girls loved this […]

Whole Grain Millet & Buckwheat Granola

Finally the weather has started to shift in NYC and it feels like we’re collectively taking a deep sigh. There’s nothing like those first few days when you no longer need AC to sleep and there’s finally a cooler breeze in the air. This is hands down my favorite time of the year. Now that […]

“Kitchen Sink” Halloween Chocolate Bark

I’m a little mystified as to why I haven’t experimented with chocolate bark before, because (a) it is ridiculously easy and so delicious, and (b) I’m not sure that I’ve ever had so much fun making a dessert!
