Hawaiian Chicken Salad with Soy-Free Dressing

I don’t know about you, but I am physically craving sunlight, warm breezes, and colorful scenery these days. If you live somewhere where all of this exists, can you please bottle it up and send me a case?! This winter has not left me in a place of complete gloom like some winters have in  [Continue reading...]

Daily Bites: Spinach & Carrot Chicken Sliders

Happy September! Although it’s usually a busy month, September has always been one of my favorites. It’s kind of like the New Year’s Day of summer. After a slow and steady few months with a few more days off than normal, we’re jumping back into the swing of things with a new routine. I’m setting  [Continue reading...]

It’s about time that I fess up. Years ago, long before I jumped on the healthy whole food bandwagon, I ate (*gulp*) chicken nuggets. More than once. Dipped in sugary sweet mustard and ketchup. And no, they were not homemade. I won’t name restaurants, but I think you can guess where they came from. Much  [Continue reading...]

I spent the majority of the last few days slogging through the hours trying to stay awake as I battled some serious jet lag. Leave it to a significant time difference and 24 hours of traveling to extend me a warm welcome back to reality! Hawaii was, in a word, bliss. I’ve come home bronzed  [Continue reading...]

I hope you’re not too turkeyed-out from Thanksgiving, because this chili really deserves a place on your cold weather menus. When the first cold snap sends me into my dresser to dig out my favorite bulky sweater and hand-knit scarves, I know that it’s time to pull out the old Dutch oven and get busy making soup. As the snowflakes  [Continue reading...]

As a kid, I always remember my mom being busy in the kitchen in the days leading up to Thanksgiving. We had very few food traditions when it came to the feast. Sometimes we ate a traditional turkey with all the fixings, while other years it was salmon or game hens with plenty of unique side dishes. When it came  [Continue reading...]

The kitchen remodel continues! As I press on to cook without much of a kitchen and begin to battle stifling hot temperatures this week with millions of other mid-westerners, slow cooker recipes are becoming my best friends. They don’t heat up the kitchen (or basement, in my case) and require little to no prep work or dirtying  [Continue reading...]

Last week I had the pleasure of visiting my sister and brother-in-law in Utah for a long weekend. With the arrival of my sister’s baby just a few weeks away, we had a blast opening gifts at her “virtual baby shower” via webcam with a few family members, checking out strollers and rocking chairs at  [Continue reading...]
