lately, I've been loving Buddha bowls loaded with deep nutrition, balanced macronutrients (hello protein), and so much flavor too. Oh, and they're easy to throw together with prep-ahead ingredients for the week. My daily lunchtime ritual ground me, nourishes me, and helps me slow down even in the midsts of the craziest days. Some mamas [...]
After a recent farmers market haul, I was seeking ways to enjoy the big bundle of kale I got from one of our favorite local farms along with a few delicious sweet white onions. And thus, this recipe is born. The keys here are sautéing the onions low and slow for a delicious caramelization, steaming [...]
We LOVE sourdough cornbread - with chili, paired with a favorite holiday meal, as the base for cornbread stuffing, alongside pulled pork, you name it! And now, thanks to this recipe, we intentionally leave leftovers (which often means I need to make extra) because this one is a weeknight (or anytime) winner that the whole [...]
This recipe was a happy accident, and when I say happy, I mean whole-family-approved happy. What started as an attempt to make a twist on lasagna soup ended as a creamy, protein-rich pasta dish that covers all the bases. It's delicious. It's super simple to make, and it's nourishing and loaded with protein thanks to [...]
If you've been here long, you know we LOVE sourdough. And as the holidays roll around that love turns into full-on obsession. Find me in my kitchen looking for all the ways to make fermentation extra festive. And this way might just be my favorite yet. I’ve never been a stuffing fan, but with this [...]
Who's here for the protein-packed meals that not only nourish, but taste GREAT too. Who's also fallen in love with cottage cheese as a result? Yep, me too. And that's why this recipe is so perfect. Protein (plus creaminess and so much great flavor) from my favorite cottage cheese, nourishing fat from the best olive [...]
Who is here for the easy button, set it and forget it dinners? Who is also here for meals that are DELICIOUS? Good, me too. And that's why this recipe is so perfect. I use the stew meat, beef brisket, and roast from Wild Pastures, and it's been SUCH a hit (kids included) every time. [...]
There's something special about sitting down to a good movie with a big bowl of popcorn. There's something even more special about that bowl being filled with butter-popped, sea-salty and maple syrup sweet sprouted popcorn. And we're here for it. We LOVE the sprouted popcorn kernels from Thrive Market. I love knowing I'm nourishing my [...]
As requested (a lot) after posting this quick how-to on Instagram, here is my latest go-to breakfast to start my day with a whole bunch of satiating, energy-giving, nutrient-dense protein. And it's all thanks to cottage cheese. With the demands of breastfeeding, motherhood, fitness, work, and adventure, I've been very intentionally consuming LOTS of protein [...]
It's soup season! And I am here for it. Rusty's wild land fire season is done, we're soaking in slow autumn days complete with brisk hikes, leaf jumping, fireside hangs, and family game nights, and soup is on the menu. I love how colder weather meals can be made in advance (hello nap time dinner [...]
