20 Minute Vegetarian Miso Ramen
I finally paid a visit to the H&L Supermarket - the Asian market here in Charleston. I may have squealed a little when I saw that they have an entire row dedicated to just noodles. #heaven As I walked up and down the aisles, certain products sparked memories from...
Peanut Noodle Salad
David, Kiki and I took a quick trip to the beach after work last night. Summer is starting to wind down and I can feel it in the slightly cooler, slightly less humid air. The weather was perfect for a night on the beach. We brought a couple beers and I whipped up this...
13 Healthy Slow Cooker Meals

Quinoa & Beet Salad with Feta
I'm definitely in "summer salad" mode - how about you? It's so nice to have an already prepared salad to eat when you: a) want to bring lunch to work to avoid the tempting, unhealthy foods in the workplace b) need a quick bite during that busy weekend project c)...
Creamy Ricotta Pasta Salad Recipe
The minute I step outside I can feel sweat beginning to bead up on my forehead, chest and lower back. Give it a few minutes more and I'll feel it start to drip. A couple minutes more and it feels like Niagara Falls. It's July in Charleston, SC and the dog days of...
Mushroom Tempeh Ragu over Angel Hair
Pasta dishes get a bad rep for being too carb heavy. And while this may be true, there is a way around it. You just have to be mindful of how much pasta you're placing into your bowl and how much bread you eat with it. "I can't trust myself around bread and pasta so...
Chicken Vindaloo with Garam Masala Rice Pilaf + Indian Cooking at Southern Seasons
So, I'm getting married in exactly 2 weeks. OMG 2 weeks! I remember when 8 months seemed like an eternity, and I could care less about planning all the details. But now, it's crunch time. I've had roughly 5 dreams in the past 3 weeks about something going wrong. Me...
Strawberry Pluot Oatmeal
I eat a lot of oatmeal. I wish you would too. Not only is it absolutely delicious, but it can help lower cholesterol, regulate blood sugars so you avoid that mid-morning crash, AND, it's rediculously simple to make. Do your body good and have some oatmeal every...

Chickpea Flour Pancakes with Coconut-Apricot Yogurt Sauce
Hey ya'll, happy Friday! I've had a super productive day and I think the pancakes are to blame (and maybe the rainy weather that made me stay inside all day). I made my pancakes with chickpea flour which has more protein and fiber than most other flours, and my energy...

Knock your guests socks off this Holiday season with a cardamom spiced coffee cake. High protein yogurt, whole wheat flour and oats make this version a bit healthier. I'm not much of a baker. But when the seasons change and it gets cool outside, I'm a sucker for a...
Sweet & Savory Butternut Squash Risotto
Have you ever made risotto? It's a starchy rice cooked in stock, a little butter and often topped with parmesan, and produces one of the creamiest rice dishes you'll ever taste. Not the healthiest of foods, no; but paired with a nice salad it's a balanced meal. You...

The New Way to Top Your Waffles
Avocado?? (Enter cringed and slightly disgusted face) Yeah baby! But you MUST include the sea salt. Eating avocado without salt should be a crime, and I'm convinced that people who don't like avocado, have never had it proper. Salt brings out the true taste of avocado...
20 Minute Vegetarian Pad Thai + How to Make it Gluten-Free
I shared this pad thai photo on Facebook and Instagram a few weeks month ago and am finally getting around to sharing the recipe. Though I'm not quite sure it qualifies for being a recipe because it doesn't require exact measurements. No exact measurements = my...

Hey Ya'll! It's time for another Recipe Redux. The goal of this month's theme is to get the family back to the table after a crazy summer by reduxing an old family favorite. Sheppards Pie anyone? This was most definitely a staple of ours growing up and it...
Dreamy Honey Mustard Vinaigrette
Growing up, honey mustard was my jam. French fries, sandwiches, chicken tenders, shrimp. I'd find anything to dip into honey mustard just so I could have the sauce. But during college, I took a honey mustard hiatus when I learned what was actually in the honey mustard...
