Arugula Green Smoothie
Smoothies are my favorite way to utilize all the fruit leftover in the fridge or the handful of greens I've got hanging around (from that kale salad I made earlier this week). Most green smoothie recipes call for spinach or kale, but after whipping up this delicious cauliflower pizza with arugula salad on top, I had a good bit of arugula left over. So I thought, hey, why not toss some arugula in ...
Leftover Salmon Cakes
I have to admit. I think I would be really great on chopped. OK, maybe not the timed part (those of you who know me can attest), which I guess is most of the challenge. But as far as using ingredients given to you and being creative with food, that is where i thrive. Perhaps thrive is not the word as sometimes I fail miserably, but that is where I have the most fun. Anyone can go into a grocery ...
Asparagus, Bacon + Caramelized Onion Quiche
Since I was little, Mom has baked and gifted quiches for our close family friends every year at Christmas. It’s quite an affair in the kitchen, lasting for several days and involving pounds of freshly grated cheese and chopped ham. The process takes so long, in fact, that a few years ago she decided to bake something more simple. But that Sunday, a week or two before Christmas, she went to ...
Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus Bundles (Whole30 + Paleo)
This recipe was inspired by the bacon-wrapped green bean bundles that my grandmother, Nana, makes for family gatherings. They're usually one of my favorite things on the table -- buttery, salty, sweet, and so bacon-y that you forget there are green beans in there. It sure is delicious, but no one ever said it was good for you. This year for Thanksgiving, I decided to try whipping up a ...

Pork + Apple Breakfast Sausage (Whole30)
As a two-time Whole30 alum, I know all too well that the morning breakfast struggle can be real. After day 10, I was just so. sick. of eggs. These Pork + Apple Breakfast Sausages were a welcome departure from the sugar-free bacon and eggs routine. I love that you can make a big batch of these sausages and keep them at the ready in the fridge. I like to cut pieces of wax paper to fit my ...
