Red Pepper Couscous with Balsamic Chicken

We had an epic snow day week in Portland recently. From a city that sees mostly rain (we’re basically Seattle’s hippy cousin) 12 inches of snow was a big deal! Businesses close, kids don’t go to school and parents with school aged kiddos go a bit crazy. So I’m told…But not us, because when you […]

Best Dark Chocolate Brownie

May I introduce to you, the Best Dark Chocolate Brownie! After months of taste testing, this version of my dark chocolate recipe totally deserves its title as BEST. Friends, I must say it’s rough being a brownie tester. I mean, it’s truly been unfortunate that we’ve been eating multiple versions of these brownies every week […]

Loaded Pulled Pork Casserole

We have a mini gong in our living room that we bring out for football season. That’s right, a gong! When our team scores our daughter who is 2 1/2 has the privilege of ringing the gong and screaming, TOUCHDOWN!!!!  As you can imagine, it’s a pretty big hit!  Pun intended.  Ha!!  And while the […]

Garden Rigatoni Baked Pasta

Sometimes, I just want a big bowl of comforting pasta. And I mean a HUGE bowl of pasta and nothing else.  No healthy salad to go with it, no veggie, no fruit.  Just pasta, and maybe some bread….and I will enjoy every massive carbohydrate bite! Because, it’s comforting, and sometimes “adulting” is hard and well, […]

Raspberry Green Tea Lemonade

When it’s sunny in the Northwest you better believe that everyone is outside and acting like it’s summer.  In the springtime, Portlanders like myself are not ashamed to pretend it’s 80 degrees out, when in fact it’s only 65 degrees.  We are so bold as to wear short sleeves, break out the BBQ and order iced […]

Mandarin Arugula Flat Bread Pizza

While I adore and am  passionate about eating whole foods and nourishing my body, there is a side of me that is also a pizza and beer kinda gal.  Take me to a pub, give me an iced cold Blue Moon and a cheesy pizza with a football game on and I’m one happy girl!  Then […]

Tortellini Minestrone Soup

There’s a little back story behind this delicious Tortellini Minestrone Soup. You see, I grew up in a wheat field about 25 miles south of Spokane Washington.  Whenever we had errands to run such as grocery shopping, banking, Target runs, Dentist etc. we called it, “going to town.” Yes, it’s true, we called it that.
