Pesto Caprese Salad
I’ll be brief here, because let’s be honest, I can try and milk this Pesto Caprese Salad recipe as much as I can, and I still wouldn’t be able to fill this blog post with enough content. Unless, I take this opportunity to tell you […]
Grilled Eggplant Sandwich
Let’s talk about this gorgeous Grilled Eggplant Sandwich, keeping with our Mediterranean inspired dishes theme. You could argue it’s not eggplant season, and I’d say you’re absolutely correct! But here’s the thing: I’ve been seeing a lot of eggplants out there, so take it up with […]
Baked Shrimp with Feta
This Baked Shrimp with Feta is the kind of recipe that feels like summer in the dead of winter, and it’s delightful, because who doesn’t enjoy a little bit of summer in February? But then you take a picture of the dish only to realize […]
Pan Seared Salmon with Broccoli Slaw
Another fish recipe, because apparently I’m on a roll! This Pan Seared Salmon with Broccoli Slaw is one of those recipes that require very little forethought because you can just get store-bought slaw and then all you have to do is whisk the dressing together and […]
One Pot Coconut Pesto Rice and Fish
I should probably work on the title of this recipe because One Pot Coconut Pesto Rice and Fish is certainly a mouthful. But maybe it’s a good thing, you get everything you need to know about it just by reading the title. It’s a one […]
Notes From A Small Kitchen
This is a quick post to let you know I’ve decided to start a newsletter! Because that’s exactly what the world needs, another newsletter! I like the idea of having a place where I can share recommendations that I don’t usually share on here, like […]
Hearts of Palm Corn and Chicken Stew
This Hearts of Palm, Corn and Chicken Stew is a very simple one-pot meal that’s surprisingly delightful. What it lacks in color, it makes up in taste. It includes only a handful of ingredients, but a very interesting mix you don’t often see together. Hearts of […]
Cucumber Avocado Sandwich
This Cucumber Avocado Sandwich, inspired by a favorite bakery of mine, Tatte, is one those recipes that’s more like a guide than an actual recipe. When it comes to making a sandwich, you’re really better off measuring with you heart, anyway, so feel free to add […]
Chicken Bone Broth
You know what they say, a cup of bone broth a day keeps joint issues and inflammation away! I’m sure you’re well aware of the benefits of bone broth, they’re all over the internet these days, so you don’t need me to go into detail […]
Tomato and Bread Salad
This gorgeous Tomato and Bread Salad is a lot more than it seems, it’s zesty and tangy, full of textures, and bright, bold flavors. It’s a great way to celebrate summer flavors, and I’m sorry for being so behind and posting this in the middle […]
Peaches and Cream Pavlovas
I’m so behind on recipes. Summer is officially over and peaches are slowly leaving grocery stores shelves, and yet here we are with… Peaches and Cream Pavlovas! But who says pavlovas are strictly a summer recipe? If you can’t find peaches, there’s always berries and […]
Chopped Salad with White Beans and Tahini
This Chopped Salad with White Beans and Tahini, just like most salads, is so easy customizable and forgiving. Those days when I really don’t feel like making an elaborate meal, but want something and fresh and easy to put together, this recipe comes in handy. […]
Cornmeal-Blueberry Pancakes
The New York Times prefaces this recipe by saying, “pancakes are so easy to make that they encourage experimentation”. I usually stick to my true and tested buttermilk pancakes, but these cornmeal-blueberry pancakes made wonder, how the heck didn’t I think of that before?? I love cornmeal; […]
Chicken Thighs with Pesto and Zucchini
Chicken thighs are my go-to for weeknight dinners. It’s an easy protein that offers a lot of flavors on a budget. They also pair well with so many sides – rice, salads, potatoes, quite literally anything. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are specially great here because […]
