Oh boy. Get ready. I’m in gush mode over here.
Can you even? It’s just… Continue reading

Asian Steak and Cabbage Bowl
So, how was it? Did you go crazy for your kids halloween candy? My husband did. I had no part in it. Except for the DOTS. And peanut butter cups. I may have had a Snickers, too. Or two.
This weekend basically consisted of lots of junk food…pizza, burgers and fries, way too much candy..and not enough sleep. So, back we are to reality and it feels so very good to have meals at home, sleep schedules for the kids and real-life food in the fridge. It doesn’t take much for me. If I’ve got those three things I am ONE HAPPY CAMPER. Continue reading
Slow Cooker Chicken and Poblano Stew
Slow Cookers. They can be such a time and sanity saver. But, as you know, I’m really finicky about what I put in them-I believe it’s my controlling food nature. When I put something in the slow cooker I’ve lost control. There’s no seasoning as you go, there’s no stirring, there’s no adding this or that. It’s a hands off, no-control zone for me. So recipes I put in mine have to be precise…and special…and worthy. This ones there. Continue reading
Watermelon + Feta Salad With Balsamic Glaze
Oh boy, you guys. Talk about an end-of-summer celebration. This, right here, is just that. I am constantly looking for ways to utilize that giant watermelon I often buy this time of year and, well, Im just regretful that I haven’t tried this sooner. Continue reading
Grilled Italian Eggplant Rolls
Gorgeous eggplant is popping up all over around here on the farms. And if you’ve got some finicky eggplant folks blessing your home i feel your pain this recipe just may do the trick and convert them over to the dark purple side. Continue reading
Kale, Farro and Nectarine Salad
I just can’t do it. There are very few things that leave me speechless in this life but Im afraid this Kale, Farro and Nectarine Salad has done it. Continue reading
Cucumber, Apple and Bacon Salad
This is a fun switch to a classic summer side dish. Theres so much you can do with this recipe…adding bleu cheese or celery to the mix is wonderful, dried cranberries or cherries instead of apple is pretty delish, too. But this right here is my favorite variation; crunchy, fresh cucumber, sweet, crisp apple, and smokey bacon make an awesome team paired with the creamy, tangy dressing. Continue reading
Parmesan + Goat Cheese Grilled Zucchini Boats
My husband? He’s pretty amazing. Sensitive. Kind. Strong. Intelligent. Nearly the whole shebang, that Nickyboy is. But a zucchini lover he is not…it’s the texture. I can let the toilet seat thing go. The all-too-often-frat-house-vibe I get from living with him, fine, I’ll get over it (please, just put the toilet seat down. And the toothpaste…just clean the remains out of the sink before you finish!) But the lack of love for a little tiny thing called ‘summer squash’ that is very near and dear to my heart? I can’t. I won’t. This is a part of our marriage…for better or for worse. You’ve committed to me? You’ve committed to summer squash. Have I mentioned that he’s passed this turn-your-nose-up mentality of it on to my daughter? Oy vey. I’m in trouble. Continue reading
Grilled Chicken Panzanella Salad
So I was lucky enough to team up with KARE11 again today and this time we celebrated “Fire Up The Grill” Friday…just in time to get a great weekend entertaining recipe in your hands, friends! Continue reading
Asparagus and Pancetta Pasta
Would it be weird to call a dish light and indulgent all at the same time? This pasta is a cinch to get on the table and is full of bright, fresh flavor while still tasting a bit rich. I’ve basically dummied this recipe down out of pure laziness and we love the results. I keep going back to it not only because I can count on everyone enjoying it (my non-asparagus loving daughter actually devours it in here) but because it requires minimal ingredients and couldn’t be more simple to throw together. It’s on the table in 15…total score! Continue reading
