Creamy Roasted Tomato Dip

April 29, 2016

This creamy roasted tomato dip is the perfect quick and simple make-ahead party appetizer!  Are you looking forward to the Kentucky Derby next week? I'm not exactly into horse racing, but I always like to watch. It reminds me of when I was a little girl and my mom showed me National Velvet ...

Start your day off right with this gluten-free, vegan tahini fig smoothie made with cinnamon and fresh spinach. I've been giving my blender a workout lately, from my Maple Chia Smoothie Bowl, to my Spinach and Kiwi Smoothie (which is turning out to be one of my most popular posts!), to my ...

These simple, vegetarian and gluten-free tostadas are topped with a spicy black bean puree and piled high with creamy, cheesy Mexican street corn. In the summertime, New York is the land of a thousand street fairs. When we were living in Brooklyn, it seemed like every corner we turned, blocks ...

Spinach and Kiwi Smoothie

April 8, 2016

This tropical spinach and kiwi smoothie is vegan and gluten-free, and is made with just five simple ingredients. I wasn't going to do a post today. I had planned to share a new chicken recipe, but I burned the chicken. I'm still getting used to the broiler at our new house. Evidently it's mega ...

Split Pea Soup with Ham and Cheese Crisps

Split Pea Soup with Ham and Cheese Crisps

March 10, 2016

Baked ham bring out my inner commitment phobe. Sure, it's delicious, but you're basically obligated to eat it for days on end until it's gone. I made a baked ham for Christmas, and by the following week I was begging my sister-in-law to take the leftovers off my hands. I couldn't reheat it one more ...

Maple Chai Smoothie Bowl (Vegan & Gluten-Free)

Maple Chai Smoothie Bowl (Vegan & Gluten-Free)

March 4, 2016

I think I might have been a squirrel in a past life.  Aaaand I just fell down an Internet rabbit hole searching for a squirrel emoji. Evidently there isn't one, though there is a koala emoji (?), a poodle emoji (?), and a water buffalo emoji (?). But I digress. The reason I think I ...

Zucchini Noodles with Tuna Puttanesca

Zucchini Noodles with Tuna Puttanesca

February 29, 2016

People often ask me how I got into food. It's a complicated question, but one of the reasons is definitely because of my dad. No, he's not an accomplished home cook or an obsessive food lover. Exactly the opposite, really. The list of foods he doesn't like is crazily long, and includes but is not ...

Shakshuka Soup with Swiss Chard

Shakshuka Soup with Swiss Chard

February 24, 2016

If you ask me, the best part of shakshuka is the SAUCE, so why not eat a giant bowl of it? A few weeks ago, we drove to Connecticut to have brunch with a group of old friends. We all know each other from our single days in Brooklyn, and now we are all married or about-to-be-married, and have ...

Pesto Chicken Polenta Bowls with Burst Tomatoes

Pesto Chicken Polenta Bowls with Burst Tomatoes

February 18, 2016

Well hello! Long time no see. I can't believe it's been over a week since my last post. But what a week! For starters, Owen was sick and stayed home from school. I don't know about other mom bloggers, but I basically find it impossible to test recipes or take photos while simultaneously being in ...
