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 […]

Making granola is my favorite weekend activity. Besides being delicious (and a million times better when it’s homemade), having fresh granola baking in the oven makes the house smell completely mouthwatering. Plus, you feel so productive filling a few jars full of homemade cereal for the coming weeks. All I do is vary the ingredients depending on […]
photographed by belathée When we interviewed Marissa Lippert and her best friend Katie back in September for our Besties series we couldn’t help but swoon over the beautiful salads Marissa dished up at her Manhattan café Nourish Kitchen + Table. Her engage-all-senses approach to food is what has made Nourish a healthy hotspot in the […]
photographed by belathée “For me, this dish screams summertime, but you really could whip it up all year round,” says nutritionist and chef Marissa Lippert, founder of our favorite West Village café Nourish Kitchen + Table. “The cleansing crunch of fennel and crisp green beans make it pretty darn evergreen. I love pretty much anything […]
When you think of what a catered party might look like, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? If you imagined shiny serving pieces and servers in head-to-toe black, you’re not entirely wrong. Of course, I love a miniature beef wellington or bite-sized chicken cordon bleu as much as the next girl, but I’ve often […]

As warming and comforting as sweet breakfasts can be, I often crave something really crisp in the morning. You may think salad for breakfast sounds crazy, but I promise it’s the most nurturing thing to start off your day. Especially if you’ve maybe had one too many glasses of wine the night before – this […]
As much as I love experimenting with new recipes and innovative flavors, there’s something about the winter months that just calls for the comforting foods and familiar flavors that I associate with the holidays. Think about how you feel when you come in from the cold and are handed a steaming mug of spicy cider, or bite […]
On a week that’s all about stocking up on as much sugar and candy as possible (Phoebe’s already practicing yelling ‘Trick or Treat!’ at her loudest) you know what’s good? A really amazing salad. This protein-packed one is full of so many colorful superfoods that it almost feels more like a power bowl than a salad, and it’s […]
If I had to eat only one food for the rest of my life, I think I’d choose ice cream. I’ll gladly devour any flavor, from roasted beet to plain old vanilla, fancy artisanal versions or DQ soft serve (remember “dip cones?”)… I’m pretty obsessed with it all. Since we’re still feeling summertime temps here in Austin, I’m holding onto ice cream […]
I’ve officially been bitten by the salted caramel bug. Salted caramel ice cream, salted caramel sauce (to drizzle over ice cream, of course), salted caramel brownies… there’s something about the toasty buttery flavor of caramel that’s just made for a sprinkle of sea salt, and I’ve recently caught myself fantasizing about how to add more of […]
Some people hunt for buried treasure… others hunt for the it bag of the season. I, on the other hand, have been on a hunt that’s led me all over the internet, deep into my cookbook collection, and on countless trips to the produce aisle, as I try to unlock my own culinary mystery: how to […]
The fervor with which people rush to Starbucks to have their first Pumpkin Spice Latté of the season has become almost cliché; this year our neighborhood store launched it earlier than ever, and I observed customers actually sweating in the still-90 degree heat while they savored their first spicy sips. Even to a non-flavored coffee gal like […]
Even though summer’s almost over, I’m still having a complete love affair with its produce. I know our tendencies are all for heirlooms all the time, but the second I saw these plump green tomatoes, I knew there was an avocado toast in my future. It may not be battered, but these “fried” green tomatoes will […]
If you’re a regular reader, you may have caught on to the fact that Camille loves salads — she eats one for lunch most days of the work week, and is usually really, really excited about them. Typically, I’d make fun of her disproportionate salad enthusiasm, but to be totally honest, I’m the same way with my […]
I truly love a savory breakfast — it’s no secret that I always love an avocado toast (like this one!), and I’ve been wanting to share my favorite “breakfast salad” recipe on here for a while. But the produce lately has been so gorgeous, I thought I’d set aside my avocado toast for something a little more […]
Planning our Fourth of July menu last weekend got me thinking about the dearth of really good, fresh, non-heavy potato salad recipes out there. I mean, I’m all for classic American BBQ staples (bring on the fully-loaded hot dogs!), but does anyone really love those mayonnaise-laden potato salads that become soggy (and actually a little scary) […]
Quinoa has somehow become the health food superstar—from a rice side dish substitute to an essential element in any meal of the day (even dessert?). Some may argue that quinoa’s reign ended after its trendy introduction in 2013, but we’re still loving the creative edge that this ingredient provides on a daily basis. What’s your […]
