I’ve been getting a lot of requests for easy, healthy breakfasts lately so it felt like the perfect time to post this meal prep chia pudding recipe. It really checks all the boxes. I’ve made a version of this chia pudding for years, it’s incredibly…
Since posting the salad that started it all (I’m looking at you) I’ve been getting lots of requests for another kale salad. I adore kale salads, so this is not a hard ask from me. I wasn’t sure how much all of you would jump…
This is my favorite kind of soup, the hearty, meal-in-a-bowl kind (you’re probably seeing a pattern in my cooking here, no?).This vegetable minestrone is so comforting and really delicious. It warms you up and is perfect for meal prep for the rest of the week.…
With Valentine’s Day around the corner, of course I had to give you a little something to celebrate. Enter: Red Velvet Cake Cookies. The word “Cake” in the title is purposeful, as these are like a cross between a cookie and a cupcake. They are…
I’ve been getting lots of requests on Instagram for more Hungry Lady Soups, so it was time to post this one. This January has really become the soup and salad month over here, and I’m not mad about it one bit. They are my some…
Here we are with a Hungry Lady Salad for those days when you feel like you should eat a salad but really want a big plate of pasta. Have both! This dish is so easy to throw together, and takes 15 minutes from start to…
This next Hungry Lady Salad I have for you is a total crowd pleaser. It’s beautiful and very flavorful from the basil pesto, garlic croutons, and balsamic glaze. This salad is a real lesson on the benefit of seasoning each component of a composed salad…
If you follow me on Instagram or Tik Tok, you know that I’ve started a Hungry Lady Salad series and this means LOTS of delicious, healthy, filling salads are coming your way. Perhaps you’ve tried the Tuscan Kale Chopped Salad with Lemon Tahini Dressing. That…
If my last post was a Hungry Lady Soup, this is a Hungry Lady Salad. With hearty greens, chickpeas, and sesame paste (tahini) it’s very filling and packed with nutrients. I love this salad all through the year, but especially in the winter months when…
Oh, this jelly. I’ve been making this Cranberry Red Pepper Jelly for about a decade, every Christmas, and it’s my absolute favorite thing to give as a homemade gift. Cookies are fabulous, obviously, as a holiday treat, but it’s the most common food to receive…
Let’s all come together and start supporting light, bite sized appetizers, shall we? I’m all for hearty first courses, don’t get me wrong, but how many holidays have you experienced where everyone fills up on appetizers and then leaves almost no room for the main…
If you’ve been here for a while, you know that I don’t tend to go heavy on the Thanksgiving food posts. This is not because I don’t love Thanksgiving, I do. It is because, of all the holidays, I find Thanksgiving to be the one…
This is the tomato soup to trump all other tomato soups. Whether you are only familiar with the iconic Campbell’s tomato soup can, an experienced tomato soup fan or not particularly crazy about traditional tomato soup (truth be told, I would classify myself here), I…
Erewhon Market is a natural foods gourmet eatery and store in Los Angeles that draws a big celebrity crowd. If, like myself, you don’t live in LA, you may not have ever been. One of the dishes they are famous for is this Kale +…
Ranch dressing… it has a reputation. It’s widely loved, and understandably. It’s creamy, savory, and really flavorful. Some people even put it on their pizza, though that’s a contentious debate I don’t have time to weigh in on here. My husband loves ranch dressing, but…
Oh, this pasta. This. Pasta. This is exactly the pasta I want to eat in the summer when produce is at its peak and the days are long and hot. This Creamed Corn Pasta with Zucchini is loaded with vegetables and has a delicious sauce…
Know someone who doesn’t like Brussels sprouts? Let’s change their mind. These Brussels are inspired by the famed Union Square Cafe in New York City, and they are SO delicious. They are sliced thin (I use a mandolin for this) and tossed with lemon, fragrant…
I posted about this vegan chocolate mousse on Tik tok, and the video went viral. there were so many guesses about what the base ingredient could be: avocado, black beans, acquafaba, coconut milk…. the list goes on. the answer, and what we are making here,…
