How to make steamed vegetables Steaming vegetables is a great, healthy way to cook vegetables that results in perfectly cooked vegetables. You can of course use a steamer or a bamboo steaming basket set over a pot of water to steam vegetables. However, I find when I have a large amount of vegetables to steam (and I’m not in the mood to get the steamer out of the pantry), I use a little speedy hack that saves a lot of time....

Updated March 26, 2019 This post is sponsored by Chex. Chex Mix is one of our favorite holiday snacks, we make it every year. It is a great snack to have around for parties, watching holiday movies, gifting to friends, and every day snacking. This year, we are changing things up a bit and making Everything Bagel Chex Mix. I use my homemade Everything Bagel Seasoning to make the Chex Mix and it is AMAZING!...

I made this bad boy on a whim when I was desperate to find a whole grain salad topper other than quinoa. Don’t get me wrong—I love quinoa as much as the next hipster foodie, but I wanted something that actually had flavor. Is that so rude? I was perusing the Whole Foods bulk bins and stumbled across farro, a grain I’d heard about but never actually tried. Farro has a super nutty flavor, like the nuttiest grain I’ve ever laid mouth on (and I mean that in the most delicious way possible)....

Updated March 26, 2019 Cranberry sauce is the perfect side dish for any holiday meal. It is great with turkey, stuffing, plain, or on leftover turkey sandwiches. Every Thanksgiving I make fresh cranberry orange sauce. I love the flavor the orange juice and zest adds to the tart cranberries. Every year on our Thanksgiving table we have my fresh cranberry orange sauce and a blob of jellied cranberry sauce from a jar....

Simple, healthy dinners have never looked this good. These garlic and herb pork fillet skewers have become a firm favorite of ours. Pork fillet or tenderloin is such a cost effective, lean cut of meat, perfect for family dinners. And the fact that it cooks in mere minutes is the cherry on top. Because pork fillet is so lean and can tend to be bland, I marinate it in a super punchy marinade filled with fresh garlic, lots of lemon and herbs (both fresh and dried)....

Ginger green beans is a Chinese homestyle dish that I love to make at home as a quick appetizer. The green beans are blanched until tender yet still crisp, and mixed with a light vinegar dressing that is loaded with ginger. The dressing is quite mild and refreshing, and it really brings out the gingery taste and the grassy green beans. It is a perfect recipe when green beans are in season, to enjoy their own flavor without too much seasoning....

Updated March 26, 2019 Once upon a time, I made this Green Chile Enchilada Quinoa Bake for dinner and and it was pretty much the ugliest meal I’ve ever made. I wasn’t going to share the recipe, but then we ate it and all decided it was one of the tastiest meals I’ve ever made. When I say we, that includes Caleb. Yep, our toddler asked for seconds and ate leftovers the next day....

Updated May 21, 2019 I love walking out our back door to pick fresh herbs. One of the many joys of summer. Earlier this week, I went outside to grab some fresh basil to make crostini. Our basil plants were exploding, so I decided to pick a bunch and make pesto. I used the pesto to make Grilled Pesto Potatoes. I love making these potatoes because they are easy to prepare, full of flavor, and go great with any meal....

So what should you do with your collection of zucchini?...

Updated November 13, 2011 We gathered in our new kitchen and got to work. We demolished a red velvet and chocolate cake. It was kind of sad watching the cakes get destroyed, but it was also fun:) We followed Angie’s step by step instructions and had no trouble forming our cake pops. I was a little worried about the decorating part, but luckily Becky and Becky were there to save the day....
