This Stuffed Acorn Squash with Quinoa, Chickpeas and Maple Tahini Dressing would be a welcome addition to your Thanksgiving menu. Call me crazy, but it is the type of dish to which I am most drawn on this holiday of beige food. I have nothing against beige food, per se — I love silky mashed…

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…
Pumpkin Pecan Energy Bites
I’m posting my first pumpkin recipe of the season, and it’s already mid-October. I’ve had grand plans to make multiple batches of pumpkin bread, my pumpkin snack cake and pumpkin cookies, but it’s been a busy month and my pumpkin baking adventures have fallen by the wayside. These Pumpkin Pecan Energy bites are perfect for…
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…
Orange, Fennel, Sweet Potato + Avocado Salad with Miso-Tahini Dressing
Happy 2019! My intention to hit the ground running in the new year with multiple posts per week was quickly derailed. So far, my new year has included traveling home from the holiday with an infant and a toddler, a painful neck spasm (likely from carrying said infant and all his accompanying gear), a family…
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…
Sheet-Pan Carrot, Apple + Ginger Soup
Yes, it’s almost May, and I’m still sharing soup! I’m a big soup person — truthfully, I could have it every day, no matter what the weather is. BUT this carrot soup has zippy, bright flavor that is totally spring-appropriate. This soup is one of my go-to recipes for when I want something quick, nourishing…
Salted Dark Chocolate Avocado Mousse
This post is sponsored by Vitamix. All opinions are my own, and all products are those I truly use and love. Mother’s Day is almost upon us, and with it comes warmer weather (finally!!), juicy strawberries and springtime gatherings. I love that Mother’s Day coincides with this time of year. It seems fitting to celebrate…
Creamy Vegan tomato, White Bean and Rosemary Soup
And we’re back to tomato soup weather. After a brief flirtation with balmy 75 degree sunny days, we have abruptly returned to February’s specialty — 40 degrees and rainy. Lovely. To say I’m over it is an understatement, but I am not over soup! Particularly, this creamy vegan tomato, white bean and rosemary soup. There…
Crispy Cauliflower Tacos with Creamy Black Beans + Tangy Cabbage Slaw
It’s February, and I am all about fresh, bright food that hints at warmer days to come. Although, I live in the Northeast, so who am I kidding? Those warmer days are still months away, no matter how hopeful I always get when March approaches. At the very least, I will channel sunnier days in…
