Happy, happy hump day! Since I didn’t photograph many of my meals this week (and don’t want to bore you to death), I’m sharing a simple-but-satisfying recipe that takes advantage of the remnants of summer produce. The idea came to me as I discovered a single nectarine and half a package of goat cheese in…

Easy Weeknight Dinner: Veggie & Herb Frittata
I don’t know if it’s because yesterday was National Egg Day (I’m always late on these things—but maybe my subconscious wasn’t), but I’ve been seriously craving eggs since the weekend. What I really wanted was a drippy, yolky egg, but a frittata for dinner was the next best thing. Made from whatever vegetables and herbs…
Seasonal Strawberry, Avocado & Mint Smoothie
One of my absolute favorite things about Spring and Summer is the abundance of fresh produce. Though I haven’t met a fruit I didn’t like, strawberries will always be at the top of my list. Nothing beats a freshly-picked, juicy, and sweet strawberry, especially if it’s locally grown in Baldwin County, AL or in Ponchatoula,…

Anyway, I’m usually not one to follow trends, but the appearance of cauliflower crust pizza on Pinterest and within the food blogging community has certainly piqued my interest. Like many people, I love pizza. It…
And the Beet Goes On…The Salad
Simple meals that can be thrown together without fuss or preparation are a lifesaver for families on the go. While I love a minimalist soup or stir-fry, the ultimate simple dish is, of course, the salad. This beautiful salad combines some of my favorite ingredients (spinach, beets, goat cheese, and walnuts) with a creamy and…
WIAW #7: So Fresh and So Clean
My Wednesday began with a trip to the dentist. Now, some of you may immediately shudder when you hear the word “dentist.” You might even crawl into fetal position, recalling childhood dreams of a terrifying, masked, drill-wielding man in a white robe, standing over you while you scream inside. Me? I get excited! Apart from…
