This recipe is a crazy combination of flavors. There’s a LOT going on in the best way: bitter shishito peppers, sweet corn, spicy jalapeños, salty pistachios and parmesan, and brightness from fresh lemon, basil, and mint. But this is a symphony of textures and flavors that’s surprisingly subtle. It sneaks up on you and leaves …
This is the ultimate one-pot summer dish, packed with spicy jalapeños and serranos, slightly sweet coconut rice, fresh herbs and limes. Its a melody of flavor- spicy, savory, sweet, and sour.
To me, nothing says summer like deliciously flavorful ripe tomatoes, corn, and seafood. This recipe pairs pan seared scallops with a roasted tomato white bean sauce that’s tangy, spicy, and slightly sweet. Add some roasted corn, some buttery toasted bread, and of course some good white wine, and you have a perfect summer dinner.
Over the last year, I’ve been on a mission to learn how to make bread from scratch by baking every recipe in the “Bread Baking for Beginners” Cookbook. This week, I made a country raisin walnut bread that was delicious and I needed an excuse to eat half the loaf in one sitting. Enter the …

Another pasta recipe? Groundbreaking. But seriously, this is my favorite way to make pesto pasta. It’s creamy, spicy, bright, and suuuper easy. Add this to your weeknight pasta recipe rotation!

This Greek inspired salad is a little different than your traditional Greek salad, but just as delicious (maybe even more so?). A greek yogurt lemon tahini dressing is the star of this salad, making it creamy, bright, and tangy. Paired with lemon grilled chicken breast, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and feta cheese to make for a …
Making fresh pesto is so easy and SO worth it! Yes, this pesto will be… the best-o. I’m sorry, please don’t go I promise it’s a good recipe. The way I make my pesto uses less oil than traditional pesto recipes which makes it slightly healthier without sacrificing any of the flavor. Use it on …
Well, it’s that annual time of year where it’s generally unacceptable to be so excited about fall / Halloween, yet here I am longing for pumpkins, chilly afternoons, sweet potatoes, and all things cozy. This harvest bowl is a super healthy way to partake in a little fall nostalgia no matter the time of year.
Summer time in the valley means one of my absolute favorite fruits: fresh peaches. For this recipe, you’ll need a LOT peaches (it helps if you have a friend with a lot of extra peaches from her tree to share, thank you Cory). Bourbon-soaked peaches add a lovely depth of flavor to a vanilla peach …
