Easy Coconut Chicken Curry with Vegetables

Easy Coconut Chicken Curry with Vegetables

February 25, 2017 2 Comments

This delicious, healthy coconut chicken curry is easy enough for a weeknight and loaded with fresh veggies! I was just thinking about how Alex and I used to eat before we had kids. Dinner was at 8pm, and I typically made three dishes: a main, a side, and a big salad. Then we had Owen. ...

Coconut Cauliflower Curry

Coconut Cauliflower Curry

September 20, 2016 6 Comments

This coconut cauliflower curry is the perfect healthy, vegan, and gluten-free weeknight meal--with a little bit of spice! I'm forever on a mission to get Owen to eat new vegetables. We recently added cucumber and peas to the list (yay!), and next up, I wanted him to start eating cauliflower. ...

Raspberry Kale Smoothie with Coconut Water

Raspberry Kale Smoothie with Coconut Water

May 22, 2016 5 Comments

Coconut water makes this healthy vegan, gluten-free raspberry kale smoothie incredibly refreshing and super hydrating. I really, really want to like coconut water. It's low-calorie, super hydrating, and has tons of potassium. It's pretty much like nature's Gatorade, and seeing as how I run five ...

Sesame noodles are given a luxurious, tropical makeover with coconut milk and chunks of juicy fresh pineapple! Do you have a million open boxes of spaghetti in your pantry? I am forever forgetting whether or not we have pasta when I'm at the store, so I buy more and then discover that there are ...

Blueberry Beet Smoothie with Hemp Seeds and Coconut

May 8, 2016 7 Comments

If you are reading this, it means that it is Sunday and I survived my trip to the DMV. As I write this post, it's Friday morning, and I'm curled up on the cushioned bench seat in our kitchen. There is granola in the oven (recipe coming up!) and it's pouring rain outside. I'm tired from the gym ...

Morning Glory Smoothie with Quinoa (Gluten-Free & Vegan)

Morning Glory Smoothie with Quinoa (Gluten-Free & Vegan)

January 20, 2016 6 Comments

Be honest. Are your mornings glorious these days? Mine definitely aren't. They usually start around 6:15AM, when Owen appears at my side of the bed asking 1) if he can watch TV, and 2) if he can have something totally inappropriate for breakfast, like M&Ms or Cheez-Its. I steel myself and tell ...

Six Ingredient Salted Caramel Granola

Six Ingredient Salted Caramel Granola

October 12, 2015 3 Comments

I learned something about myself last weekend: I am not above using store-bought caramel sauce. I hope you're not either, because then you would miss out on this insanely easy, incredibly delicious granola. All you do is heat a little coconut oil and caramel sauce, then pour it over rolled oats, ...

Apple, Corn and Butternut Squash Soup with Curry

Apple, Corn and Butternut Squash Soup with Curry

September 16, 2015 10 Comments

Ah, this soup. It's been a favorite of mine, in one iteration or another, for years. But there is a small problem with it, which prevented me from doing a post on it last fall, and which almost prevented me from posting it today. The truth is, it's not the prettiest color. Beneath that swirl of ...

Vegan Carrot Orange Sherbet

Vegan Carrot Orange Sherbet

July 14, 2015 10 Comments

Let's get something out of the way right off the bat here. I called it "sherbert" for years. Did you? No shame. Evidently, it's one of the most common mispronunciations out there. While we're at it, let's clear up the difference between sorbet and sherbet, too. Sorbet is fruit and sugar. Sherbet ...

Coconut Lime Banana Bread

Coconut Lime Banana Bread

February 20, 2015 Leave a Comment

It was -2°F degrees out this morning when I loaded Owen into the car to go to daycare. Still, he refuses to wear a hat. Every time I put one on him (a sun hat, a baseball cap, even a jacket hood) he rips it off and yells "Noooo!" When I tried to put it back on I said, "Doesn't that feel goooood?" ...
