Have you made sourdough tortillas yet? I can promise you this: they will not disappoint. Now that we've made the switch, we'll never go back. Find the recipe for soft, pliable, delicious sourdough tortillas in my Sourdough Sisterhood recipe book! We've been enjoying next-level tacos on these tortillas for years now, and though Evie usually [...]

We've been loving a little more spice in our weekly dinner lineup, from tacos and taco bowls to big ol' balanced bowls (see my highlight over on IG for more on those). And our favorite way to enjoy that hit of spice is with this spicy sriracha yogurt sauce, born from a pre-travel week where [...]

There's something about tahini that I just love. Who's with me? Tahini is a paste of crushed sesame seeds that is widely used in Middle Eastern cooking (and in our kitchen). It's versatile, flavor-packed, and makes such a great base for all kinds of dressings, sauces, and even baked goods. YUM. See our favorite homemade [...]

Something about the fall into winter season has me craving arugula salads with warm roasted squash and winter fruit (persimmons, pomegranate, or apple) filled salads with goat cheese, avocado, and leftover roasted chicken. YUM. See my favorite autumn-inspired salad HERE. I never host a holiday dinner without a salad. It's nice to have something fresh [...]

We returned from a super fun summer trip to Central Oregon with a bag of brioche buns from one of our favorite spots, Sparrow Bakery. And I knew exactly what we'd use them for (see our favorite stops here). We also returned with delicious turmeric jalapeño kraut from our friends Jake and Kali, gifted during [...]

Our garden is booming this year! And I am having fun finding way to put the fruits (and veggies) of our labor to good use. Evie is having so much fun helping her dad and me in the garden, and I love seeing her pick produce straight from the ground to eat right then and [...]

Creamy lemon and thyme dressing

This recipe was a happy accident on our recent family vacation to a beach house down in California. I was on salad duty for our family's Fourth of July bbq, and we had leftover sour cream from sourdough tortilla tacos the evening before. I had some apricots and arugula, and I knew I wanted lemon [...]

crack sauce 3 ways + a rainbow bowl of love

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. Actually, it's quite the opposite: life giving, nourishing, uplifting, and energizing (the kind [...]
