I don’t know about you, but I have been loving zucchini more than usual this summer. It’s such a versatile veggie- add it to any stir fry, make noodles, or hide it in your smoothie for an extra dose of filling fiber. And the best part is, the summer abundance means it’s extra cheap. That’s […]
Before we get to the food, I have to share some fun news!! I am officially partnering with the Dallas Farmer’s Market to bring you specially curated recipes using fresh, seasonal produce from your local partners. I’m so excited to learn more about seasonal produce together and bring you the stories behind each vendor at […]
Have you ever tried to lure someone into coming to your party by telling them you were serving canned tuna? I sure hope not. But tell them you’re serving tapenade on crostini, and they may not know what language you’re speaking, but they’ll come if for no other reason but curiosity. You can whip up […]
This is like my LBD of kale salads. It’s so simple, low-maintenance, and a go-to when I don’t have a lot of time or ingredients. It hits all the right notes- the tangy lemon, sweet apple, spicy ginger, and crunchy kale can turn the hearts of even the most devout kale haters (my roommate is […]

I guess you could say I put the lime in the coconut. I never quite understood what that means, but I can see why it’s a song lyric, because the creamy coconut with the tangy lime is the perfect combo. But what’s even better is this comes together in only 30 minutes, requires minimal ingredients, […]
For some reason, when I am having company, I always decide to try something new. This is probably as close as I come to “living life on the edge” if I’m being honest. But where there’s risk, there’s a chance at reward, and let me tell you- this dish was a crowd pleaser (especially since […]

Like fish, they’re nice and light, but with a bit more bite like shrimp. This dish still has all the flavor of its traditional southern comfort food […]
My mom says- and I quote- “this is the best guacamole I’ve ever had.” Now I know some of you are diehard traditional guac fans, and I completely respect that- why fix what isn’t broken, right? But if you’re feeling a little crazy, these few little tweaks just set it over the top. It’s such […]
