Butternut Squash Bisque

We were lucky enough to take part in a local CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) this summer and a few weeks ago we had our last farm share, which came with copious amounts of butternut squash.  I made one round of soup and then some roasted butternut squash, and still I have about eight of these large fruits that have been…

Classic Pesto Recipe

There are a couple of versatile staples that I like to have on hand in my fridge at all times and one of them is pesto. In addition to being a pasta favorite, it's great to throw on things like meat as a finishing sauce. We've also been making a lot of homemade pizzas lately, and I've found that this…

Crunchy Broccoli Protein Salad

I know I've said it before, but I'm not a huge traditional salad person.  I love vegetables and I love dressing but would much rather eat them together in a big bowl rather than deal with lettuce mussy-ing up the situation.

Striped Bass with Leeks and Balsamic Vinaigrette

There's something pretty special about being able to catch your own dinner.  Fish is something that I didn't love as a kid but forced myself to like as I got older, not only for the health benefits, but also because my husband catches a lot of fish in the summer, so we have the freezer stocked!  Today, we took the…

Slow Cooker Roast Chicken with Green Beans

Roast chicken. My comfort food staple. My go-to when I’m having a dinner party. My “I can make three meals from one meal” favorite. Combine this with a slow cooker and it’s the absolute easiest thing I can do to give me an instant leg up on meal prepping for the week. Of course, you don’t have to use a…
