This time of year, my craving for a refreshing, healthy salad is just about insatiable. And while I can’t live without the go-to kale or arugula variety, a weeklong marathon of the same salad on repeat usually has me longing for something other than leafy greens and veggies topped with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Enter my […]
We had the BEST time cooking up Easter treats with our favorite little sous chefs at Patricia’s Table earlier this month (did you catch these Easter Egg Pancakes?) I had to share the adorable and completely delish fruit smoothies that we mixed up with the kids. Patricia, the owner of our favorite kids’ cooking school, says […]
I truly love homemade granola. It’s always so much better (and cheaper) than store-bought and makes your house smell amazing. The options are really endless with the different fruits, nuts, grains and seeds you can throw in, and the best part? Almost any variation will taste amazing. There’s nothing better than having a batch of homemade […]
Whenever my out-of-town friends land in Austin, it seems like they’re united in a single-minded mission: to eat as much Tex-Mex as humanly possible while they’re here. Recently, while briefing one of them on the merits of various breakfast taco spots, I was shocked to learn that she’d never heard of queso. Wha?! In Texas, queso […]

This is one of my very favorite salad recipes, and also one of the simplest. And it celebrates the fact that it’s almost zucchini season!! Since Easter is approaching, thought it would be fun to share one of the recipes from the spring brunch in Camille Styles Entertaining — the menu also includes an asparagus & bacon […]
Raw kale caesar salads are one thing I never tire of. They’re hearty with a great bite & brightness making them the most satisfying meal ever. I like mine with a few hippie add-ons and poached egg for breakfast (or anytime of day). This almond caesar dressing is naturally dairy-free, but has the bold, zingy flavor that every […]
You might think I’ve lost it, but these days I get really excited about a loaf of stale bread. One bite of this salad, though, and you’ll get it. Crisp, peppery, bright radishes and the subtle licorice kick of fennel punch up tangy, olive oil-drenched croutons, with herbs, just-bitter-enough radicchio, and salty cheese further mixing up the […]
Kumquats are the new beloved citrus at my house. They can be eaten skin-on, whole or sliced, raw or cooked. With their burst of zingy tartness, they provide a much-needed dose of bright flavor on these cold winter days. Besides being hearty and delicious, these mini loaves have no dairy, gluten or grain, but I promise […]

There’s a certain liberating freedom that comes from cooking what the season offers. I love strolling the market on a Saturday morning, buying what looks beautiful, and deciding what to cook later. No more exhaustive weekly menus and cross-referenced shopping lists—instead I rely on a community of farmers and a well-stocked pantry. With one bunch of greens […]

*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 […]
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 […]
Don’t know about you, but I’m still full from my December feasting and needing a post-holiday overhaul. I don’t do liquid diets or juice fasts, but I do love the way green smoothies make me feel, especially when I’ve been feeding my body straight sugar for the last month. This smoothie is packed with good […]
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!
Hot breakfast cereal may sound like the healthy and responsible choice in the morning, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be equally delicious! It’s all about the add-ins (obviously) and in the fall & winter months, the options are really endless. I love my oatmeal, oat bran, etc. with tons of warm spices and something special like pumpkin […]
