We're on an Italian kick over here, and this one is GOOD. It's one of those recipes that I threw together in a super creative mood, Indie on my chest and a glass of Oso Pardo Viura in hand (my new favorite white), that turned out better than I even expected. When that happens, I [...]
I've been feeling way more creative in the kitchen lately, and while I love our staples, it's also fun to try new flavors and ingredients. My dad used to make polenta all the time when we were kids, so this one is nostalgic for me. This polenta skillet isn't just delicious, flavorful, and nourishing, it's [...]
The holidays are upon us, and I would like to take some time to THANK YOU. Thank you for reading. Thank you for caring, sharing, and exploring new ideas, new recipes, and new ways to nourish yourself, the earth, and the ones you love. Because to nourish is to L O V E. This has [...]
These chops are V E R Y special. They were the centerpiece we made for our sweet Evie's first birthday. this year has been one that I will never ever forget. I know people say that a lot, but I mean it. I really do. It didn't flash by like a blink of an eye. [...]
It's in gratitude that I honor my friend and Modern Mamas Podcast cohost, Jess, for the naming of this sauce. It is, in fact, potentially as addictive as a drug, but without all the nasty shit that comes along with drug use.

*Note: this is an old recipe that I decided to revamp because we've fallen deeply in love with this one all over again this past week. Dinner done in less than 20 and flavor that is to DIE for. My husband keeps asking for it, and I keep using the coconut tahini sauce on E [...]
This recipe has been a LONG time in the making. If you've been following along for long, you've seen countless salmon posts on Instagram. I go through weeks (especially during my second trimester), where I eat salmon every single day, and the crispier the skin, the happier this mama. The reality of my salmon escapades, [...]
It's berry season!! I am clearly about as excited as it gets when it comes to berries. I so look forward to Saturday morning beach walks followed by farmers market coffee and shopping. Fresh, bold, delicious berries are always at the top of my list. This past weekend, we bought a whole bunch of strawberries [...]
Cravings. Let's talk about them. ALL I WANT IS PORK (and salmon, always salmon). A couple weeks ago, my husband and I were in San Jose and stopped into the new Whole Foods. They had a whole glorious "paleo bar" and right smack in the middle was the most delicious smelling pork ever. Falling apart. [...]
So, the word is out. I am pregnant. And we are THRILLED! Read more on how cool this is here. I have to admit, though, that the first 4 months of this pregnancy were some of the toughest of my life. I was very sick... All. The. Time. The fact that morning sickness starts with [...]
