Green Gazpacho Sometimes it takes me a whole year to get a recipe on this site. And some of you thought I had it together. My friend Kim from Something New for Dinner took these photos last July in a cooking class I hosted for friends and family in Sun Valley, Idaho. I’m finally…
Grain-free
Sriracha Mayo
Need a delicious condiment that will take your burger night from ho-hum to hurray? Sriracha mayo is my go-to for burgers or an out-of-this-world BLT. You can also use it as a dip for roasted potato wedges or shishito peppers. Spicy, with a touch of soy and lime, it takes all of five minutes to…
Slow Roasted Sockeye Salmon
Slow Roasted Salmon with Lemon and Dill Slow roasted salmon with lemon and dill is easy, fresh and fast. A low and slow temperature melts the fat in the salmon and makes the finished product super tender. Top it with herbed yogurt sauce or chermoula for a dish that’s simple enough for a weeknight meal and impressive…
Roasted Za’atar Okra
Simple Roasted Okra Whether you’re a lover or a hater of the South’s favorite slimy vegetable, I think you should give this a shot. Roasted za’atar okra is crunchy from a high heat oven and flavorful with the elements of one of my favorite spice blends. Za’atar is a middle Eastern staple made with sumac,…

Healthy Seven Layer Dip
Healthy Seven Layer Dip I have friends to thank for this one. Iterations of this appetizer kept showing up at casual poolside barbeques and weekend gatherings last summer. Healthy, colorful and easy to assemble, it’s definitely a crowd pleaser. To assemble the appetizer, spread out the ingredients in thin layers on a white platter or…
Coconut Lime Cauliflower Rice
Meet coconut lime cauliflower rice, your Whole30 best friend. When I did my first full Whole30 in January, I didn’t realize how much cauliflower rice I’d go through. It even went into a legume-free version of Whole30 cauliflower hummus I conjured up. But after a while, all that cauliflower rice at the bottom of my…
Whole30 Romesco
Romesco to the rescue. I’m a sucker for a snack platter: Colorful crudité, cheese, fruit, you name it. It’s a choose-your-own-adventure way of eating. Just put out all the options and let everyone dig in. Case in point, this Whole30 red pepper romesco with colorful veggies ready for dipping. Beautiful enough to set out for…
Tropical Green Smoothie
For St. Patrick’s day, why not start your morning with a tropical green smoothie. It’s super fast to throw together, totally adaptable and totally delicious. I stock my freezer with frozen fruit, such as pineapple and frozen banana that I’ve peeled and sliced. It will last a long time, and you can use it in…
