Balsamic Asparagus Barley Bowl

Posted on June 11, 2016 | Leave a comment

About a month a ago, I started my Asparagus Mini Series, where I highlighted recipes using asparagus. Asparagus is my favorite spring-time vegetable that I only get when it is locally available. Asparagus is sooooo much better when it is fresh! This balsamic asparagus barley bowl recipe was developed shortly after I completed the mini series, but was still worthy of sharing before next spring! Continue reading →

Making food from scratch is often times more time consuming. There are plenty of reasons to do it, however. The first, and my personal favorite, is that making your own food allows you to control the ingredients used. You can also make it exactly how you like it, and personalize it for others that you cook for. This mushroom pecan empanadas recipe is time consuming, but totally worth the effort!

Cherry Almond Oatmeal Cookies

Posted on April 6, 2016 | 7 comments

I have a serious problem with good deals at the grocery store. When I find a good deal, I can’t leave it there. Luckily, I don’t have the same problem with other things, like clothes or shoes, just food. Probably because I get so much more enjoyment out of food. Well, a few weeks ago I found a great deal on dried cherries. After much deliberation, I decided that cookies were the answer to my deal find. Cherry almond oatmeal cookies that is.

Root Vegetables plus Brussle Sprout

Roasted root vegetables are a wonderful staple of the season. Enjoy as many root vegetables as you can now, because soon spring and summer produce will be back. I added one vegetable to this mix that is not a root vegetable: Brussels sprouts! It is also a seasonal veggie, that grows best in colder temperatures, and I couldn’t make this dish without something green! Continue reading →

Black and Blue Veggie Burger

Posted on October 30, 2015 | 1 comment

Black and blue is a flavor combination that is hard to beat! Tangy blue cheese and spicy blackening season complement each other so well, it is a classic combination. Before I started to focus on whole foods, I would put blackening seasoning and blue cheese on frozen burgers. This homemade black and blue veggie burger is so much better, and better for you!

Pecan Cardamom Cookies

Posted on August 15, 2015 | Leave a comment

I do not usually eat a lot of desserts; I’m just not into sweets that much. Maybe its because sugar makes me bounce off the walls. Or maybe it’s because desserts tend to be calorie bombs that don’t lend themselves to wholesome ingredients. These cookies satisfied all my needs for a healthy dessert, and they even passed the approval test of my fiance’s co-workers!
