This year will be our first time celebrating Valentine’s Day as parents! In the past, Roby and I have almost always celebrated this day by cooking for each other. I remember one year in college we both bought heart shaped pasta to cook for each other lol (#worldmarket). This year, neither of us have nor… Read More
Savory Italian Coconut Flour Biscuits
“You shmell like hot bishkits.” My husband Roby has never been great with compliments. That right there was his pick-up line for me in college. Over the past 8 years, he hasn’t gotten much better. The other day when I asked him how I looked in an outfit, he said (very sincerely), “you look like you get… Read More
Sunday Sauce
If I had to pick my favorite day of the week… it’d be Sunday. Sundays are for doing nothing all day. Unless it involves relaxing on the couch and/or netflixing for hours… it’s not on the agenda. Or at least, that’s the case at my house. Parties and plans are for Fridays and Saturdays. Sundays…… Read More
Dairy-Free Caprese Salad
Dairy-free Caprese Salad?! What’s not to love about Caprese salad? It’s so simple to make and yet it looks so elegant! Because this is a dairy-free recipe, there’s no mozzarella. Instead, I’m using the “cheese” dumplings recipe from my new eBook. These “cheese” dumplings are creamy and also slightly firm, just like mozzarella! This is… Read More
Zucchini Noodles with Vodka Sauce
If you’ve never tried zucchini noodles or zoodles before then oh my goodness you are in for a treat. Zoodles are totally reminiscent of spaghetti pasta noodles. Being able to twirl noodles around a fork… it’s everything to a person who has been deprived of actual pasta. Topping said zoodles with the easiest, creamiest and… Read More
Tutti Frutti Cake
Gummy bears. I think we all have our kryptonite – the one thing that can cause us to stray from our real food eating path. For me, it’s chocolate. For my mom, it’s gummy bears. That’s why, for her birthday, my mom asked me to make her a healthy gummy bear cake – only, with… Read More
Tuna Fettuccine Alfredo
Oh my goodness, this paleo-friendly fettuccine alfredo is incredible. I honestly can’t believe that this is a cheese-free recipe! I used wild-caught canned tuna as my protein in this dish but the original recipe calls for lobster, which I’m sure is also amazing (I plan on trying it with lobster as soon as I can… Read More
Dairy-free Mac and Cheese
I am so excited to share this recipe for dairy-free mac and cheese with all of you today. It is so good and so cheesy, despite the fact that there’s no cheese in the recipe! Vani Hari, the author of The Food Babe Way, told me that I could share a recipe from her new book… Read More
Marinara Beef Roast
A girl buys a kiwi slicer just once… and suddenly she has a reputation for being a kitchen gadget addict. I may have a lot of useless kitchen tools and perhaps even appliances… but my slow cooker is one of my most used purchases of all time. The one piece of advice that I give… Read More
Sloppy Joe Boats
I am convinced that this is the best sloppy joe I have ever had. It’s sweet, spicy, smoky and sophisticated. It’s like the grown up version of the childhood favorite! I simmered the spiced ground beef in tomato sauce, spiked it with a hit of tangy apple cider vinegar and added a bit of sweet… Read More
Pepperoni Garlic Bites
I spend too much of my life waiting. And I’m not talking about waiting in line or in doctors’ offices (though those things happen too). What I mean is, every year I wait for weekends. I wait for holidays. I wait for my birthday. I wait for special events. I spend so much time anticipating… Read More
Prosciutto Egg Cups
These prosciutto egg cups are not only adorable and portable… they’re also practical. They take minutes to prepare and after a short time in the oven, you end up with a dozen egg cups. I eat 2-3 for breakfast along with a cup of masala chai so for me, this is about 4-6 days worth… Read More
