These balmy days of summer have me craving something sparkling and refreshing at all times. There’s nothing like reaching for a cold citrusy beverage on a hot day, when you’re severely dehydrated and your body’s need for liquid seems to be endless. The great thing […]

Miso Chocolate Chip Cookies
These miso chocolate chip cookies are delightful. I love a salty-sweet combo (like pineapple on pizza. yes, I like pineapple on pizza!!), and the miso here adds a lovely and subtle salty, earthy taste to the cookies. This recipe is a typical chocolate chip cookie […]
Roasted Bell Pepper Salad
This roasted bell pepper salad is one of my favorites! It’s so easy and you only need a handful of ingredients. It’s a great summer salad, and even though you have to turn on the oven for this one, it’s just for a quick broiling […]
Cornbread Loaf
Aside from the toasted almond flour (we’ll get into that in a second), everything else id pretty straightforward as it should be: dry ingredients in a bowl, wet ingredients in a blender. Pour wet ingredients over dry ingredients, stir to combine and pop it in […]
One Pot Creamy Orzo with Shrimp
This One Pot Creamy Orzo with Shrimp is a very straight forward recipe, so let’s just get straight to the point. The best way to make orzo is to think of it as a risotto. Now, let’s dive in;) Think of the techniques used in […]
Strawberry Shortcake Pudding Cups
A few weeks ago I had the privilege to go to New York. Visiting New York is always a privilege, you’re instantly reminded that there’s so much to do and and so much to see in the world. Then, you realize that really, you’re just […]
Antipasto Pasta Salad
Antipasto Pasta Salad. But make it vegetarian. It’s been getting too hot to even consider baking or doing basic things like planning dinner. Lately all I do is feel sleepy – not my fault, heat makes us tired. And that has really affected my productivity. […]
Banana Bread with Dates and Coconut
This blog has featured a fair amount of banana breads, like this one, or this one. You’d think there’d be enough banana bread recipes at some point, but apparently when it comes to banana bread, the limit does not exist. This Banana Bread with Dates […]
Cucumber Sandwich with Green Mayo
Cucumber sandwiches never sounded particularly interesting to me. When I think of a sandwich, I think of a hearty meal disguised as a snack and I tend to fill it with chunky fillings. I mean, give me protein and carbs and veggies, the whole works. […]
Easy Tuna Salad
This Easy Tuna Salad is my go-to recipe for a quick, filling lunch of snack. An original Hailee recipe – I love her content – I saw it on tiktok a while ago and knew I had to try it. There’s no mayo, but it’s […]
Sun-Dried Tomato Grilled Cheese
If you’ve never been to Tate Bakery, make sure to add it to your list next time you’re in the Boston area. It’s one of my favorite bakeries in the world. The locations are gorgeous and the carefully curated menu is full of fresh, impeccable […]
Celery, Fennel and Apple Salad
I first made this Celery, Fennel and Apple Salad back in the summer, and it’s such a simple, palate-cleansing dish that it was quickly added to my summer meal rotation. I figured it’s also perfect for post-holiday dinners: it’s citrusy, cold, and refreshing. This salad […]
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
I made these cookies a few weeks ago, back when fall was in full swing. Fast forward to now, when everyone’s busy baking gingerbread cookies, I thought, well, better late than never. It’s still pumpkin season after all, and the recipe does call for ginger, […]
How to Start Entertaining Friends and Family
Everyone talks about how adulting is hard – and I wholeheartedly agree – but people rarely talk about the perks. Like using any excuse to have your friends over for a fun night of silly and deep conversations, board games, and lots of wine. Like […]
Roasted Tomato Soup
Fall is just the perfect excuse to make an absurd amount of soup and eat all week long. I usually go for hearty soups and stews, but I love the simplicity of a roasted tomato soup. I don’t like using canned tomatoes; roasting fresh ones […]
