Dessert

Raspberry & Pistachio Cake with Lemon Glaze

It’s always right around this time of year that I start craving desserts with fresh juicy berries and zingy citrus fruit — flavors that practically shout from the rooftops that Spring has arrived and it’s time to savor desserts with a lighter vibe. For a garden party I hosted in my backyard, I made this Raspberry […]

Herbed Goat Cheese & Radish Tartines

I am (and have always been) the biggest fan of toast. To me, it’s the most perfect and versatile blank canvas to satisfy hunger at any time of day. Whether topped with avocado, eggs or something a little sweeter – a piece of toast provides endless opportunities for experimentation. On busy mornings, there’s no faster breakfast […]

Smoky Mango & Avocado Salsa

When I turned in my book manuscript last year, I couldn’t believe that I’d accidentally written more than would fit in the final book’s pages! Perhaps it’s a better problem to have too much to say than too little, but it meant that I had to go through the arduous process of deciding which recipes and […]

No-Bake Peanut Butter-Chocolate Chunk Granola Bars

I rarely leave home without a granola bar tossed in my bag, but I’m not a big fan of the processed ingredients and refined sugars that are in most of them. So lately I’ve been really into making my own, and when I hit upon some of the great no-bake versions out there, I started tooling around […]

Nacho Party!

Y’all know that we love a good fiesta around here (especially as Cinco de Mayo approaches!) and last week the girls and I got together for an afternoon shindig on my back patio with grapefruit-jalapeno margaritas and my new favorite party menu… a build-your-own nacho bar! Since Garden of Eatin’ invited us to take part in […]

Pesto & Goat Cheese Frittata

Brunch is my favorite meal for entertaining, and not just because I love breakfast food so much. It’s a chance to have a slow-paced, leisurely start to the day with the ones you love. It also doesn’t hurt to have bottomless coffee and perhaps a glass of prosecco!My go-to is usually something baked in the oven, like […]

Raw Broccoli Chopped Salad

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.
