Broccoli Salad with Homemade Mayo (Guest Post)
Today, we’ll be making the marathon 10 hour drive from GA to OH (make that 14 with the kids?). I’m glad to be on our way to getting settled in our new home, but it will be a long and bittersweet day, for sure. While I’m listening to my “Leaving GA” playlist and sobbing on […]
16 Summer Sweet Potato Recipes
Last week, I shared my favorite summer chicken recipes. Today, I’m back with 16 ways to use the humble sweet potato. (I’m actually not eating sweet potatoes right now, but for some reason, I am still craving them and hoarding sweet potato recipes like it’s the end of the internet. It’s only a little heartbreaking […]
Citrus Hoisin Salmon and Sesame Sauteed Kale
I just remembered that I like fish. How did I forget this? Reasons why: 1. It’s quick cooking. 2. You can flavor it with anything. 3. My kids eat it! 4. It’s good for you. 5. It’s beautiful to look at. 6. It makes me feel fancy. Seriously, I’m in love! I started getting these […]
Roasted Red Pepper Dip and Valentine’s Day Veggies
Veggies for Valentine’s Day! Let’s make it a thing. It’s not exactly a box of chocolates, but it’s kid-friendly and pretty adorable. Who can say no to heart-shaped vegetables? I made up this little tray for a kids’ Valentine’s Day party in under an hour this morning. That includes chopping, arranging the plate and making […]
Rosemary Roasted Fingerlings and Brussel Sprouts
This new blog feels like a giant, open room that I can’t wait to furnish. I am excited to fill this blog with new, fresh recipes.. maybe some old favorites, too.. I am loving it! This recipe is a little bit old and a little bit new. I’ve always (I mean, since I’ve been a […]
Roasted and Spiced Autumn Vegetables
It’s a miracle that I have this recipe to share with you today. Not because I’m busy, but because my oven is on the fritz! The ol’ Oven Love oven is breaking down on me. Not the whole thing, oddly enough.. the stove top is still working. So weird! And so inconvenient since oven-using season […]
Grilled Corn with Garlic Herb Butter
It’s still summer, right? It seems like everyone in the food blogging world (maybe the real world, too?) is already making fall comfort foods and pumpkin desserts and back-to-school lunch ideas.. but in my world, it’s still, like, 90 degrees every day.. so I’ma keep grilling. Cool? Cool. I like my corn just lightly grilled.. […]
Sesame Quinoa with Chicken and Snap Peas
I’m not sure what took me so long, but I am on board with this quinoa business. I’m pretty late to the party, I know. You might have seen the salmon/spinach/feta/quinoa concoction on MPMK last week? Since I’m on this quinoa kick, I pulled up Jessica’s recipe (which I’ve had […]

Peaches and Peppers
What I have for you today is simple. Just peaches and peppers. An easy side dish. It never occurred to me before that peaches might complement peppers, but somehow they do. I sauteed the peppers in grapeseed oil (you can use whatever fat you fancy) until soft and added in the thinly sliced peaches just […]
