I’m obsessed with this spinach. On our most recent trip to Italy I must have eaten 15+ plates of spinach (yes, LOL)… not because it’s a “good for you” food, but because I was obsessed with how it tasted and how it was cooked. I’m still working on perfecting this recipe but it’s not far from there, so I wanted

Easy, delicious, fresh. That’s what this salad is. I find myself using kale most of the time as the base of my salads. Mostly because the pieces are large, and the volume adds up quickly without too much prep. I also find it easy to rinse and dry… so out of convenience I use kale, but also because I love

Fall is here! And so are the holidays, two of my favorite things. One of my least favorite things however is the crazy holiday food that comes along with this joyous season- loaded with sugar, calories, and a lot of guilt for so many of us. Many of the holiday foods at Thanksgiving and beyond can be heavy, when they

And what’s best, is that

A roasted carrot and avocado salad that you can enjoy either cool or warm! Lately I’ve been totally obsessed with roasted carrots- on everything. They’ve shown up as a means for dipping hummus, in salads, and even on their own- I just love them. Carrots often get a bad wrap for having so “too much sugar”- but frankly, there’s many
