Ingredients needed (Quantities and method can be found in the recipe card below.) Onion Garlic + Ginger Boneless chicken thighs. I prefer chicken thighs because they stay juicy but any chicken can be used. Potatoes. Sweet potatoes, pumpkin, cauliflower and butternut squash are all good substitutions. Spices. I always have Garam Masala and a variety of spices in my kitchen but use any you have. Turmeric, cardamom, coriander, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, black pepper, etc....

Ingredients needed Cucumber. I used baby cucumbers but any Persian or English cucumbers works too. Radishes. I used a variety of radishes but use any fresh radishes you can find. Fresh lemon. Fresh dill. Other fresh herbs like chives, mint and parsley are good substitutes. Extra-Virgin Olive oil. Salt and black pepper. How to make cucumber radish salad Can I make this salad ahead? You can slice the vegetables up to 4 hours in advance and keep in the fridge....

Having a healthy, delicious snack on hand is a must in every household. Especially when there are little mouths to feed (and they seem to need feeding A LOT), these healthy blueberry muffins come in very handy. I love making a big batch of muffins every Sunday to carry us through the week. They get eaten on-the-run as a quick breakfast and packed into lunchboxes as a healthy snack and my kids ask for these blueberry oatmeal muffins more often than any of the other muffins recipes I make....

It’s the New Yeeeyahhhhh! Holy guacamole, can you believe it’s already the new year? A mere three months until this gal ties the knot! In celebration of all things renewed and delicious, we’re whipping up a splendid almond butter oatmeal snack bar recipe smothered in dark chocolate inspired by my Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars. You know I seriously adore healthy snacks made with oats. How to make The base of these seven-ingredient bars is a mix of old-fashioned oats, ground flaxseed for fiber and omega-3’s (you only absorb the nutrients if it’s ground!...

Ingredients needed Sugar. I use caster sugar but granulated can also be used. Caster sugar dissolves into the batter easier and is more delicate. Flour. I use cake flour but all purpose can also be used. Baking powder. Cocoa powder. Unsweetened. Salt. Egg. Milk. Oil. You can use melted butter too. Oil is just less faff and results in super moist cupcakes. Vanilla. Boiling water. I use hot coffee but boiling water can also be used....

This oyster mushroom stir fry is quick and easy. The whole dish is light and balanced. It has a nice garlicky taste, and the drops of soy sauce brings out the fresh, delightful flavor of the mushrooms. Oyster mushroom stir-fry is a very easy and quick dish that my mom usually cooks at home as a weekday dinner. She always uses a wok to cook this dish because she is more familiar with cooking in the traditional Chinese way....

Updated April 28, 2011 On Saturday while the guys were playing “blood ball” in the pool, I baked cookies. Josh was outside and the Dewey’s love peanut butter so I tried a flourless peanut butter cookie. No flour in a cookie? You read it right. I was intrigued too. The recipe called for peanut butter, sugar, baking soda, and an egg. How easy! Of course I had to play around a little, so I added vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and chocolate chips....

Many people have grown up with the classic green bean casserole made with a can of Campbell’s mushroom soup. There’s nothing wrong with a nostalgic recipe but this version made with homemade mushroom sauce is just so much better. Using fresh green beans also amps up the flavor and topping the casserole with a mixture of crispy onions (I use packaged but you can make them yourself) and panko bread crumbs makes the whole thing so much more irresistible....

Updated March 26, 2019 A Peach Pie Professional I don’t bake pies, I bake cookies. Ok, I’ve baked a few pies in my lifetime, but I am really not skilled in the pie area. Baking a perfect pie crust is on my bucket list, so I invited my friend, Annalise, over. She is the pie professional. She knows pies, and she agreed to show me how to make a perfect pie crust and bake up a beautiful pie....

Trader Joe’s pre-cooked lentils are one of the best things that ever happened to my crazy kitchen. It’s not like standing over the stove for thirty minutes watching lentils cook is the worst thing that could ever happen to me, but I can think of seventy-eight other things I’d rather be doing. Like washing my socks. Or eating these blondie bites. Or flossing. Sometimes life takes unexpected turns. Sometimes those turns help build you up and sometimes they bring you to your knees....

When I was very young, whenever we would visit my paternal grandmother, I would be look forward to it with utter excited anticipation. I loved visiting her because, no only did she have a huge dog whom I adored, but she also had a beautiful parrot. I don’t remember the parrot’s name but I do remember the time he bit my finger. Above all of that though, I remember my gran’s house smelling of granadillas (passion fruit)....

Updated June 15, 2020 Pasta Salad – a Summer Must-Have A few weeks ago, I asked on Instagram stories what recipes you wanted to see on the blog this summer. Pasta salad was hands down the number one answer. I was pretty pumped about that because I love a good cold and creamy pasta salad. Pasta salads are a summer staple. They are great for easy lunches and dinners and perfect for taking to summer barbecues, picnics, and pool parties....

Updated April 09, 2020 Cheese Tortellini + Classic Greek Salad = Yum June is here and that means summer is here. I know summer doesn’t officially start until later in the month, but I am ready!

I love making pasta salads during the summer months and this one is already a favorite!...

I originally published this dip recipe in 2016. Jeff said, “Mmmmm. Good job, boo! Just don’t tell people it’s vegan. Or what’s in it.” No one is dying to know there’s legumes hiding in the shadows, I get it. Remember my vegan queso? You’ll want to dip chips and celery and carrots and fingers and toes in this too, I promise! Key Ingredients How to make healthy buffalo dip The ingredient list is pretty simple, so let’s talk execution....

I’m in a relationship with flavored coffee. It didn’t used to be this way. I use to be a minimalist. Small coffee with soy, please. Large almond milk lattes or cold brews on the weekends. You know the drill. Then I met my lovely boyf and his obsession with grog and snickerdoodle soon became my obsession with grog and snickerdoodle. I always loved coffee, but his love for coffee made mine grow tenfold....

That gorgeous green! Can you handle it? Okay, we’re big homemade salad dressing people over here. I definitely dabble in bottled dressings for convenience, but can we agree that nothing compares to freshly made, herby salad dressing? The proof’s in my 5-Minute Mediterranean Salad Dressing, Healthy Apple Cider Vinegar Dressing, and Creamy Balsamic. Fragrant cilantro, punchy lime juice, fruity olive oil, and my secret ingredient…hemp seeds. So creamy, so packed with healthy fats....
