This summer squash anchovy pasta recipe has a surprising combination of flavors and textures that frankly work really well together. The summer squash is cooked down along with onion and garlic to make a silky-smooth, creamy sauce for the pasta.

I have a few curry recipes here on the blog, and in none of them do I use curry powder. I always use my own blend of spices and seasonings. One day I had an aha moment, I should mix up a batch of homemade curry powder for meal prep to simplify the process.
Curry is a term used to describe the gravy or sauce found in traditional Indian cuisine. There are so many variations on flavors found in curry, and therefore curry powders can vary quite a lot, so I like to make my own. Continue reading

Sometimes, when you try something new, you find a new thing to love. That was me with this recipe, golden potato and black lentil kale salad.
I love kale salads. Kale can be tough, but all you have to do is give it a little massage to soften it right up. I also love black lentils, or beluga lentils, as they have a firm texture and a clean flavor (not earthy like brown lentils). Continue reading
