What’s in Season: Peach Stuffed Bacon Wrapped Chicken

I love to use produce that’s in season whenever possible, and this is a great time of year for that! I have to restrain myself at the Farmer’s Market so I don’t spend the entire week’s food budget in one fell swoop. Right now, the peaches are sinfully sweet and impossibly juicy.  I had some […]

What’s in Season: Zucchini Veggie Spiral

It is prime time zucchini season.  If you planted any in your garden or have been to a Farmer’s Market lately, of course you already knew this.  It seems like we always end up with an abundance of zucchini this time of year, so I’m always looking for new recipes. You may have seen this […]

Quinoa with Fresh Berries and Mango

I am kind of upset with myself.  It took me over 30 years to discover how much I love mango.  I mean, what’s not to love – it’s so sweet and smooth and juicy.  Combine that with the wonderfully ripe berries we have available right now, and protein packed superfood quinoa, and you’ve got an […]

Lactation Granola Bars

So, I haven’t posted much since I’ve become a Mommy.  I’m on summer break right now, so I can’t really complain about being too busy, but I am enjoying a lot of snuggles and smiles with my sweet little guy before I have to go back to work in four short weeks.  I have cooked […]

Tip: How to Freeze Berries

It’s berry season – yay!  Actually, we’re coming to the end of strawberry season (which was late this year), and tiptoeing into blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry season.  Now’s the time when the berries are ripe, and sweet, and bursting with flavor…not to mention way cheaper than any other time!  So it only makes sense to […]

Corn and Black Bean Salad with Basil Lime Vinaigrette

I was going through my pins on Pinterest the other day, and I realized I have pinned about six or eight different salads containing some combination of corn and black beans.  Apparently this is something that sounds really good to me. 🙂  Well, I think I can go ahead and delete all of those pins, […]

My New Favorite Pancake Recipe

Let me tell you about my new favorite pancake recipe.  They’re so flavorful and fluffy, plus there’s all kinds of good stuff in them – whole wheat flour, oats, flax seeds.  There’s no oil, white flour, or sugar.   Compared to plain white pancakes, these are faintly nutty, slightly sweet, slightly salty, and have just the […]

Million Dollar Pink Fluff

So, I have  new obsession, and it doesn’t even involve peanut butter.  I know, try to contain your surprise.  It’s this pink fluff.  I don’t know what it’s really called; I got the recipe from my friend, Amanda (thanks, Amanda!).  But it is so delicious and addicting, I thought Million Dollar Pink Fluff was an […]
