Cauliflower soup is like a hug in a bowl, with its silky texture and mild creaminess enveloping you in warmth and comfort. As winter approaches (all too rapidly) I crave foods that warm and nourish me from within, and this creamy cauliflower soup with kale pesto and rye breadcrumbs does just that. Make yourself a…

Creamy White Bean Soup with Butternut Squash + Kale
This weekend marks the return of daylight savings time and the first freezing temperatures of the season. I won’t even pretend to be upset, because I love these dark, cozy days (at least until March). I’m a homebody and introvert at heart, and I welcome the turn inward that this season encourages. It is soup…
Masala Lemon Chickpeas + Kale on Garlic Toast
In the spirit of helping you get dinner on the table on hectic weeknights, I plan on sharing more of the simple no-recipe recipes I make and strategies I employ on a weekly basis. Because weeknights can be a struggle, especially if you have small children who are not at their best during the witching…
Coconut Creamed Kale with Sundried Tomatoes + Crispy Chickpeas
The first official day of summer is in a couple days, and I probably should be sharing one of my more “summer-y” recipes. But I have been craving this dish lately and decided it was time to share, despite what the calendar says. In its defense, the zippy flavors feel quite at home in this…

Happy Halloween! It is fitting I am sharing this veggie chili on Halloween, because it is a tradition of sorts for me. Growing up, my mom would make a big steaming pot of vegetarian chili every Halloween. My three sisters and I would come in at various times from trick-or-treating (or in my older, cooler…
Kale, Apple + Crispy Lentil Salad with Ginger Almond Butter Dressing
This is likely the first post of many in the coming weeks involving apples. We went apple picking last weekend and opted for the 20 lb bag…and it’s a whole lot more apples than I anticipated. But, really, do you ever get sick of apples? I certainly don’t. Especially when the apples are organic, freshly…
Kale Pesto with Hemp + Pumpkin Seeds
I make a variation of this pesto every. single. week. If for some reason I don’t make it, I feel lost. A week without pesto??? The struggle is real. Seriously, having a jar of this herby, nutrient dense pesto on hand gives your meals a major boost throughout the week. It has the ability to…
