  • Chicken soup may soothe the soul, though I’m convinced this Creamy White Bean and Lemon Soup has its own set of our curative powers. Two types of beans and a whole cast of aromatics form the base, escarole bulks up the broth, and Parmesan adds richness. With bright top notes of lemon and rosemary, it’s an edible hug-in-a-bowl. Grab the recipe (plus a special trick to achieve creaminess without adding milk or cream!) through my profile link.
  • Getting lost in the secret sauce of this plant-based Fettuccine Alfredo. The magic is in the miso, which lends savory spunk to turn each twirl into a decadent, umami haven. Broccoli bolsters the texture with coveted crunch, and seared shiitakes add meaty, full-bodied flavor. Grab the 30 minute recipe through my profile link!
  • Friendsgiving Brunch: the perfect opportunity to enjoy fun, holiday-esq dishes with the family we CHOOSE. #ad This year I’m making Granola-Stuffed Sweet Potatoes with Maple-Tahini Butter as part of the @bobsredmill Friendsgiving Campaign to support @nokidhungry. This campaign raises funds to help support the 11 million children living in the US that don’t have access to the healthy food they need to fuel their growing bodies. Acknowledging these statistics around a time of such food ABUNDANCE is especially jarring.

  • Single skillet Sundays, baby. The magic of this One Pan Moroccan Quinoa lies in the mingling of fluffy grains, tomatoes, and spinach to create one harmonious whole. Caramelized coins of lemon, Castelvetrano olives, and crunchy bits of almonds create a bright and toasty finish. Grab the recipe for this plant-based, make-ahead main through my profile link!

  • Happy 5 Ingredient Side Dish Week!!🎉 Kicking this party off with a recipe that changed my tune about green beans (they actually CAN stimulate some serious excitement). Browned Butter Green Beans with Hazelnut Dukkah doubles down on rich, nutty flavor with superior spice. Most dukkah nut + spice blends call for 8+ ingredients, but this one achieves serious flavor and zest with only 3! One of which most of us have been using on the daily... Any guesses?😉 . .
