Helloooo, my frannnnds! This recipe is so colorful, so bright, SO delicious, andddd…. it’s pretty much perfect [so modest, I know]. The sous chef and I have been going a teensyy weensy bit overboard on cauliflower rice [because, hello, Trader Joe’s pre-riced cauliflower has been nothing short of life changing] and this will give you every….

BEHOLD, my friends. Because today I bring you the most delicious – and SIMPLE – salad ever. Like, it’s almost embarrassingly easy. Just almost. Not to mention, it’s also stunning. And SO good. I could probably eat this every single day and die a happy person. I mean, is there a better way to eat…
Crispy Shrimp Tacos with a Sriracha-Chili Aioli
Oh my gosh, ya’ll. THESE TACOS. I am at a total loss for words to describe the insane deliciousness of these puppies. I’m talking life-changing tacos. Is that possible? It totally is.

Steamed Kale and Summer Vegetable Salad with a Lemon-Basil Vinaigrette
Hello, fraaaands! I bring to you the most delicious salad ever that is sure to cool you off in this crazy heatwave. I don’t know about you, but it’s like 250 degrees [maybe minus 150, but we’re close here, we’re close, okay?] in Washington D.C. and we are in full-on SWAMP mode. Like, I’ve permanently hibernated…
Summer BLT Kale Salad with Garlic Croutons & Creamy Ranch
My friends, summer just got that. much. better. This salad is everything. And you’re totally going to have major FOMO if you don’t whip this baby up — so let’s not waste any time.

Kale and Crispy Chickpea Salad with a Creamy Basil Dressing
WAITTTTT! Please don’t run away. I know this is scary [the salad doesn’t even have cheese]. And… it’s another salad. We’ve been on such a salad kick – similar to our soup habit this past winter that we haven’t seemed to kick just yet – but we’re going to get through this together, and I think…
Fajita Chicken Salad with a Chili-Lime Vinaigrette
Y’ALL. Beach season is right around the corner. And I can’t promise one way or the other whether this is going to help your diet, or hurt your diet. I have a LEGIT salad problem. And it basically stems from my inability to stop piling on cheese, avocado, and everything else delicious under the sun…
Roasted Bell Pepper and Mozzarella Summer Salad with an Herb Vinaigrette
So the sous chef and I officially have our summer vegetable garden planted, and we’re very excited – the only thing that more exciting would be if we were able to grow cheese. You know, mozzarella cheese or something. Okay, I’d take any cheese [kind of a cheese-aholic]. But we can’t, so we’ll have to…
Rosemary Chicken, Avocado, and Bacon Salad with Honey Mustard
So, the sous chef is absolutely obsessed with this salad – and for good reason. For starters, it’s packed with, um, avocado and bacon… [i.e. a match made in heaven]. I mean, that’s pretty much as close to chocolate and peanut butter, or wine and cheese as you’re going to get. So yeah. Now, I’m…
Spicy Black Bean Soup with Avocado & Sour Cream
The sous chef and I are going to Mexico in February, so channeling my inner excitement to eat Mexican food and drink wine [Corona’s] on the beach for days, I thought I’d whip up a batch of spicy black bean soup. Okay, okay, in the back of my mind was I thinking Ohmygosh Mexico is only…
