The colder temps call for soul-warming kitchen creations, and this is just that. This season, I created our new favorite cranberry pulled pork recipe, and we enjoyed the leftovers in so many fun ways. Perhaps my favorite, though, is this cranberry cocoa chili (with sourdough cornbread, of course). This one is packed full of flavor [...]
Lately, I’ve been loving simple, soul-warming soups loaded with protein, nourishment, and so much flavor. I’ve also been loving the start of winter squash season as it meets the end of pepper season here in our corner of the PNW. Farm-to-bowl soups for the win. This new recipe was born from that mash-up, and it's [...]
Lately, I’ve been loving simple, soul-warming soups loaded with deep nutrition, balanced macronutrients (hello protein), and so much flavor. When a tomato soup craving hit last week (along with a need for an easy weeknight meal), I got creative with what we had on hand and made one of my favorite soups to date. We [...]
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 [...]

I think there's time for one last soup for the season.... And this one is my favorite yet, It's so good I couldn't wait until winter rolled around again to share it with you guys. Nor could I wait till winter to make it in our own house two weeks in a row.Something about the [...]
I frequently discuss the importance of real/whole food as the source for all of the nutrients we need to heal, perform, and thrive. But one of the issues many people seem to face when it comes to getting all the needed nutrients is that it can be daunting to eat a giant bowl of greens or [...]
A good friend of ours is also a commercial fisherman, and he is very good at what he does. He's also an awesome human and member at our CrossFit gym. He surprised Rusty and me this past week with a shoebox filled with fresh-caught Dungeness crab. Have I mentioned one of my love languages is food? Anyways, [...]
