Warm Kale Salad with Curried Cauliflower
Do you guys feel the same way I do when you wake up on Monday morning? The weekend has ended, and you’ve successfully stuffed your face full of all kinds of sweet, savory and fattening foods for the past couple of days. The start of the football season has not helped out with this little […]
Blistered Heirloom Tomato Bruschetta with Lemon Ricotta
When I was figuring out what I was cooking/photographing/posting this week, this blistered heirloom tomato bruschetta with lemon ricotta was not on my list. I was thinking I’d bake all week. Then we hit that dreaded 90 degree mark, and I was like screw that! I am totally not turning on my oven. It was […]
Watermelon Caprese with Balsamic Reduction
I know we all like to THINK that Labor Day weekend is the official end to summer, but it is not. We still have a couple of weeks left, and these weeks that lie ahead are some of my favorites of the year. This could partly be because my birthday lands on September 6, and […]
Summer Pasta with Brown Butter and Blistered Tomatoes
Do you know what I am absolutely obsessed with lately? Eggs … eggs on pasta. I could eat eggs in any shape or form, but I really think they compliment a nice pasta dish. Zach was uncertain of this the first time I shoved an egg on top of his pasta. He didn’t think the […]
Spicy IPA Shrimp Skewers with Pomegranate Sauce
You guys. This shrimp. Oh my. This has to be one of my favorite recipes to date. If you recall, a little while back I posted a recipe for Grilled Saison Shrimp Tacos with Pomegranate Salsa. They were soooo good that I decided to recreate the same recipe, but using an IPA rather than a […]
Grilled Steak Salad with Capellini and Melon
Happy Monday everyone! I hope you guys had a wonderful weekend! This being the middle of July (better known to us grilling enthusiasts as “National Grilling Month”) and all, I thought that the best way to let summer shine was to prepare one of my favorite summertime salads. What is so spectacular about this salad, […]
IPA Honey Chipotle Slow Cooker Chicken
I was on a slow cooker roll last week. I get into moods, and just because summer literally just began, doesn’t mean you can’t put that slow cooker to good use. I think it is a common misconception that the slow cooker is a winter appliance! No way! You can totally use that thing all […]
Warm Broccoli Salad with Skinny Green Goddess Dressing
Woohoo! Happy Friday Everyone! Why do I feel like we are always on the countdown!? Oh well. It’s Friday: the best day ever! I hope you guys have some fabulous plans for this weekend! It’s supposed to be nice around here, so I think we will be spending some much needed time outdoors! We also […]
Orange Coconut Creamsicles
Ahhhhh. Can I even begin to explain how much I’m in love with this recipe? It’s been super, super warm here lately (ew … and humid which we aren’t used to here in Colorado … ick!), and these orange coconut creamsicles have been at the top of my list to make for weeks. I love […]
