  • Avocado Wasabi Cole Slaw

      I bought myself a long-overdue awesome present yesterday!

  • Grapefruit, Avocado & Mango Fruit Salad

       Here’s a simple recipe for a delicious light fruit salad.  We’re starting to see some glimpses of spring around here – lots of trees blossoming, a couple nice sunny warm days, and more fruit filling up the produce aisle.  With that comes spring recipes!

  • Marsala & Garlic Roasted Mushrooms

    Want some mushrooms that have been roasted in sweet wine?  With lots of garlic too? I thought you might. I have never had marsala wine before, but always wanted to try, so I picked up a bottle at Trader Joe’s this weekend and just tested cooking a couple mushrooms that I’d completely drenched in it. …

  • Chipotle Roasted Sweet Potatoes

      I have a new obsession.  I already posted it, but the obsession has grown exponentially since that day.  Earth Balance + chipotles in adobo.  Sooooo good.

  • Truffled Fried Smashed Potatoes

    Potatoes at their best.  Yams plus mixed baby potatoes.  Lightly mashed.  Lightly fried.  In truffle oil and garlic avocado oil.  I’m pretty happy with myself.  I was excited about this idea when I thought of it, but it turned out way better than I anticipated!  I made it at the end of the day when…

  • Everyday Sauteed Mushrooms

    You know what’s weird?  Sometimes I forget that my favorite go-to dishes would make a great post!  This mushroom recipe is a really common side-dish to my dinners; in fact, it’s so commonplace to me that I failed to realize that it is still blog-worthy.  But then other day I had some friends over for…

  • Sweet Onion Kale Chips

  • Savory Apple & Sage Hash Browns

    Apple Week recipe #2!  A savory apple recipe.  Yay. Okay, I know I already posted a variety of a sage sweet potato hash.  Now I’m doing a spin on that because I love it sooo much.
