Appetizers and Snacks
Chia Seed Pudding
Chia Seed Pudding Last week was BUSY! I’m getting back in the groove after attending The Southern C in Sea Island, Georgia. My head is spinning and I’m not quite sure where to start with my catch-up process. But one thing I know that would help me out is quick on-the-go breakfasts. When you need…
Cheese Bread

Three Bean Salad This one takes me back. Anyone else? It’s an old school side dish my grandma used to make for lunches when I’d visit. I remember hers being deliciously sweet and almost syrupy. My variation of three bean salad uses healthy pantry ingredients and has multiple substitutions to make it work for you….
WEEKLY MEAL PLAN // Feb 2-7
Super Bowl Meal Plan and Beyond… February is here! Super Bowl! Valentine’s Day! My birthday! So many great menus to plan. My Whole30 officially ends today. My 4th round of Whole30 wasn’t perfect by any means (honey in my tea when I was sick, and maybe a little whiskey in my tea when I was…
Cherry Tomato Confit
A Super Easy Party Appetizer Garlic, herbs and tomatoes in a warm bath of extra virgin olive oil makes your whole house smell intoxicating. Pour the just-baked mixture over goat cheese and serve it with crostini or crackers, and it makes the perfect party appetizer. HOW TO MAKE THE CONFIT Look for the smallest size…
Tuna Poke Recipe
Simple Tuna Poke Bowls Summer cooking is all about low fuss and high reward. Actually, all cooking should rely on that ratio. Tuna poke, using sushi-grade fish, is the type of meal I’m talking about! Refreshing, flavorful, and finished without the use of a single pot or pan. Poke tuna is a ubiquitous Hawaiian convenience…
