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.

Green Juice…Served with a Healthy Dose of Reality

Let me paint you a picture. I was scrolling through my Instagram feed and I see picture after picture of gorgeously captured food items. Inspired by these beautifully crafted images, I decided to stage my own photoshoot. I had just gotten a delicious green juice, the sun was shining, and the flowers in the backyard were perfectly in bloom. Glass…

Yogurt & Berries

This snack can give you the illusion that you are having dessert (especially if you are adding the honey or maple syrup!) Unfortunately, most flavored yogurts have enough sugar in them that they should actually be considered a dessert but are often marketed as health foods. The best thing to do is always buy plain yogurt and add your own…
