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…
Perfect Oatmeal Raisin Cookies – Vegan + Gluten-Free
As I write, it is pouring rain outside, the leaves are tinged with brilliant hues of red, orange and yellow and the weather is finally getting crisp. I live for cozy days like this. Hygge days. Days that beckon you to stay inside and look inward – to your home, your loved ones, your quiet…
Sunflower Berry Crumble Bars – Vegan, Gluten-free + Nut-free
These are my back-to-school inspired berry crumble bars. Rose started “school” last week – by which I mean she started a 3 hour enrichment program, one day per week. But still! It seems like a big deal, and I may or may not have built it up in my head until I was oddly emotional…
Smoky Lentil Sloppy Joes
I love that certain foods are time capsules with the ability to transport you back to a moment in time. Beyond the familiar taste and smell of the food itself, there is the rare, special dish that gives me this warm, comforting feeling of reliving mundane moments from a day-day-to-day life that has all but…
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…
