Ah, summer dinners. The best dinners. But the thing about summer dinners is the sun stays out so late it’s hard to tell where the time went. Before you know it, you’ve started cooking and it’s already 9pm. What happened?! I’m a lover of long days, but also a lover of efficiency so I came…
It’s the height of Summer and for those of us who aren’t in squeltering heat waves (sorry NYC), the backyard gatherings are on in full force. That means lots of opportunities to show off (or worry over) your best potluck recipe. Now don’t get me wrong, I have all the love in the world for…
Did you know that galettes are approximately 1200 times easier* to make than pies? I was so afraid of making galettes for so long because the name sounds so fancy and french and the photos you see of them are so beautiful it hurts. So I just assumed they were the dessert of a higher…

Kitchen sink cookies are usually a compilation of pretzels, chocolate chips, potato chips, marshmallows, dried fruit, etc. You get the point. It’s a lot of junk. So I set out to make a healthier…

A few weeks ago I asked you on Instagram what your favorite summer desserts are, and overwhelmingly the answer was strawberry shortcake! I’m honestly not surprised. It’s like a cross between cake and…
I wanted to get these tacos up in time for Cinco de Mayo, but alas I didn’t achieve my goal. (However, I fee like every day is a good day for tacos, so does it really matter?) The first testing of these tacos were *good* and I almost put that recipe up, but I knew…
This salad is the heathyish version of a California cobb salad. It’s got all the traditional ingredients like romaine lettuce, hardboiled eggs, tomatoes, chicken, avocado, chives, and cheese. The health-ified part is the bacon. I decided to make shiitake bacon using shiitake mushrooms, liquid smoke, toasted sesame oil, smoked paprika, and salt. It’s a crunchy,…
There have only been a few cookbooks that have been published where I think, wow this is almost the exact cookbook that would come out of my brain at this moment, and Healthier Together is one of them. My (internet) friend Liz created the perfect health-ier/healthy-ish book, with recipes that take all of your favorite…

For a long time in my life I thought that bread was too hard to make. I watched other bloggers making beautiful loaves, and just thought, “nah that’ll never be me.” I watched Paul…
I’ve been to Hawaii once. I was a child, and went on family vacation to Oahu and Maui. I don’t remember a lot aside from “learning to surf” (I was awful), attending a luau, and ABC stores everywhere. I do remember being highly aware of the cultural differences I was experiencing. I’m not sure I’d…
