I first learned of cauliflower rice when Patrick ingeniously made it for me last year. Yes, you heard me. My Carhartt loving husband who often wafts of eau de engine oil cologne made me cauliflower rice with sautéed tofu and veggies. Yes, I married up. And, I was hooked on cauliflower rice. Therefore the only […]

If you need a break from these dreary winter days, I have just the proposition. Lower the blinds, start a fire in the fireplace, turn on some cozy music, light a cinnamon pumpkin apple whatever-makes-you-feel-like-fall candle, and try this delicious and fall-inspired dish. You can pretend that the sticky hot days of summer have just […]

Approximately this time every year I get an intense urge to sell our home and move to one of the following places: San Diego, Phoenix, Austin, or any of the Hawaiian Islands. I literally (channeling my best Chris Traeger voice) just googled “Austin temperature right now” and HELLO 83 degrees! It’s. Just. Not. Fair. It […]

Give me a break. Your diet actually starts January 2. January 1st is transition day! Today, your job is to eat something to transition your […]

As I passed these cookies around to my family last night, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of gratitude for the health, safety, and abundance we have been blessed with. Yes, the world is fraught with injustice and unrest, and everyday I miss the mother who brought us into the world and made us […]

It’s about time I posted something that is not melted coconut ice cream, sugary white fluff from heaven, or butter in a bar. Not that there is anything wrong with those recipes. It’s just that last week I was craving a sandwich or something “relatively” healthy for lunch and, surprise surprise, my refrigerator was filled with […]

I must have been living under a rock, because I did NOT know marshmallows could taste this good. Let me convince you that these are worth every ounce of effort that you might exert in making them (it’s only a moderate amount of effort). AND, most of the effort comes from the self-control you must […]
