I almost feel like it’s cheating to do another “caprese” recipe, because let’s face it: ANYTHING you stuff with tomatoes, basil, and fresh mozzarella is going to be delicious. But when I made these charred eggplants the other night for dinner, they were so ridiculously easy (in addition to being delish) that I knew I […]
My friend Walter makes the best bread I’ve ever tasted. He grows the yeast, mills the flour, and combines it all with salt and water to create a slow-fermented sourdough that truly doesn’t belong in the same category as the pre-sliced quick breads found in grocery stores. A loaf doesn’t last longer than a day […]

A deeper dive into all that founder Kenden Alfond has created revealed […]
‘Cause you shouldn’t have to choose.
If there’s one time of year where I, along with most other people, am overcome with the idea of “tradition,” it’s the holidays. I never stray from the classics at Thanksgiving dinner, sticking to buttery mashed potatoes with a side of green bean casserole and a perfectly rich pumpkin pie topped off with a dollop […]
in partnership with Blue Diamond Almonds // photos by kristen kilpatrick Let’s get one thing straight: I’ll never turn my back on avocado toast. But every now and then, even the most die-hard avo-toast fan needs to expand her horizons, and given how quickly the green fruit turns brown, everyone’s favorite trendy toast doesn’t exactly make for the best party food. Today’s […]
in partnership with Blue Diamond Almonds // photos by kristen kilpatrick You guys know I love a good salad almost as much as I love a good taco, and when the delicious flavors of those two combine, I’m basically in heaven. This recipe was born from one of those typical summer moments when I accidentally came home from […]
If there’s one culinary lesson I learned from our trip to Tuscany, it’s that the simplest dishes are often the best. Of course, when you’re working with a tiny ingredient list, a recipe is only as good as the quality of those ingredients, so the time to make this spaghetti dinner is when tomatoes are practically […]

Recently I listened to the most inspiring podcast interview with Elle Macpherson in which she shared her approach to wellness and how she stays as beautiful as ever by taking care of both her physical and mental health. Ever since, I’ve been dying to get my hands on her Super Elixir Alkalising Greens, so I was thrilled when […]

Around Austin, when we say “Mexican food,” we typically mean “Tex Mex.” And for most, the thought of Tex Mex usually brings to mind melted cheese, soppy grease, and sugar-filled margaritas. Don’t get us wrong, there’s a time and a place for alllll that, but in the interest of our ever-evolving wellness journeys, we knew we needed a […]
Here in Austin, it feels like we just made a beeline straight from winter temps right into bikini weather (Spring? What Spring?) Although this heat-loving south Texas girl doesn’t mind the quick transition, as I shop for my new swimsuit in March, I’m reminded that it’s time to spring clean my diet a bit. When you come from a […]
“Seriously dip almost anything in this beet hummus, put it on top of a salad, add it to a sandwich, the list goes on. If you ever find yourself reaching for a sugar filled snack or even hitting the vending machine when you need a little something in between meals, try this recipe out!” — […]
Have I mentioned that I *might* be slightly addicted to sweet potatoes? Yes? Well, fortunately it’s a habit I’m not the slightest bit ashamed of, since sweet potatoes are chock full of vitamins A, C, and B6, plus fiber and potassium, and they are one of the most delicious foods on the entire planet. My love for […]
It was 80 degrees in Austin last weekend, and I threw on a bikini and jumped in the pool. Nevermind that it’s the middle of February; that one hot day was all it took to send me into total countdown-to-summer mode. Over the past few days, I’ve ordered a new swimsuit, sipped a margarita, and […]
