The Secret to the Best Grilled Chicken Ever

Ask any Austinite: Fresa’s is the place where you go to get the best chicken in town the world. You can order a half or a whole chargrilled bird at the cutest drive-thru window you’ve ever seen, and it comes wrapped in butcher paper with grilled onions and peppers, beans, rice, and warm corn tortillas so […]

Superfood Salmon Salad

You know those “superfoods” we always hear so much about? I’ve taken all my favorites and packed them into one majorly addictive salad that will make your skin glow and give you energy for days. Promise. Watch the video above to see how I massage the kale, mix the vinaigrette, and bring it all together, then […]

Blackened Salmon and Blueberry Salad

Sarah Contrucci Smith of Ara Collective whipped us this dinner salad with an unexpected (and entirely delicious) combination of salmon and blueberries at her Valentine’s Day party this year. We couldn’t get enough of this light and healthy entree salad — see how Sarah served it at her Blue Valentine Girl’s Night here. photographed by […]

Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl

I’ve been dying to share this recipe ever since we got back from Hawaii a couple months ago — there seems to be a poke bowl (pronounced “poh-ké”) on the menu at just about every restaurant in Maui, and since I sampled so many of them throughout the trip, it took me a little while […]

Chicken and Winter Vegetable Soup

Around this time of year, I start craving soup a few times a week — there’s nothing that warms the body and soul quite like it. And since we’re eating extra clean this month, I asked food blogger and wellness coach Lisa Bryan to stop by with her favorite healthy soup recipe this winter — and boy did she […]

Slow-Cooker Chicken & White Bean Chili

We finally (!!!) just had our first semi-chilly day in Austin, and you should have seen our team… Decked out in scarves, boots, and turtlenecks, you would have thought we were experiencing an arctic blast, when it was actually just under 60 degrees. It’s amazing how the changing temps cause such a shift in what I’m […]

Sausage, Cherry & Sage-Stuffed Turkey Breast

“Though a whole roasted bird is traditional, l think that a turkey breast rolled up with stuffing is hands-down the most flavorful way to serve the bird on Thanksgiving. I ask my butcher to debone and butterfly the turkey so that the hard part’s done before I bring it home. If you’d like, prepare the […]

Easy Caprese Pesto Penne

Have you ever tasted a new ingredient and thought, “Now this is a game-changer”? I can remember a few times in my life: Maldon sea salt, really good dark chocolate, European butter, and most of all, six years ago when we were on our honeymoon in Italy and I tasted buffalo mozzarella for the first time. Previously, I’d had […]

How to Cook Perfect Quinoa Every Time

I don’t know what I ate before quinoa became a permanent pantry staple of mine. It sounds cliche given how much quinoa has been dubbed a “trendy” food, but if you ask me, the grain is here to stay. I usually make a big batch at the beginning of the week (practically with my eyes […]

Sicilian-Style Zucchini Spaghetti

I know, I know… I can’t stop talking about my new addiction to spiralizing (as shown here and here.) And we really only have one person to blame thank: when Ali of Inspiralized sent me one of her genius inspiralizers to try out, it was so simple to use that I started creating noodles out of […]

Smoke-Infused Beet Spread

Recipe from Huckle & Goose | Click here for the full story “This probably wins as our favorite way to eat beets. Smoke is definitely a flavor element here, so if you don’t have access to an outdoor grill, take the veggies to your friend’s next grill out and whip this up there. The natural […]
