We really like coconut around here (even the little ones), so I played around with some coconut milk and shredded unsweetened coconut and came up with this coconut almond crusted fish! This was so much better than I thought it would be! Let’s start with the fish. First a nice soak in coconut milk & …

This chipotle taco meat is packed with lots of hidden veggies! It’s perfect for tacos, burritos, salads, and even breakfast hashes (my favorite!).
Don’t hate me for saying this, but I don’t think it’s gotten over 70 degrees here for the past two weeks. While 65 degree weather isn’t ideal for playing in the hose outside, it’s awfully better (to me) than 95 degrees. Especially since our home isn’t air-conditioned. I feel like fall has already arrived. Hello, …
I’m a sucker for fresh corn in the summer. My all-time favorite way of making fresh corn is turning it into elote or Mexican corn on the cob — rolled in spiced mayo and cotija cheese. But when I don’t feel like getting my face covered in cheese and sauce, this flavorful, fresh bowl of grilled …
I have a whole section of my website dedicated to grilling. Not just burgers, but all kinds of protein and vegetables! I would grill everything all the time if I could! I love adding fun twists on traditional grilled recipes and this grilled zucchini recipe is the perfect example of that.
If you’re wondering what that orange stuff is in the jar, it’s the sun-dried tomato-soaked olive oil that solidified after being in the fridge. Once upon a trip to Costco, I bought a giant jar of sun-dried tomatoes on a whim. After using them off and on throughout our six years of marriage (not …

Yes, another recipe with chard. You’re probably sick of hearing me mention my CSA box (see this post if you don’t know what a CSA is), but that box of surprise veggies has a very strong say in what we eat. I’ve never eaten so many vegetables for so long in my life — especially …
Two ingredient guacamole! Because we don’t always feel like dragging out a cutting board. And sometimes our cilantro is slimy.
This recipe has been updated and made paleo & Whole30 friendly! Grab the recipe here: Paleo/Whole30 Mini Skillet Meatloaves I like meatloaf, but I’m picky about it. It has to be moist and have a lot of flavor (not too “meaty”). My mom makes really good meatloaf.But meatloaf takes, like, over an hour to cook. …
This is the BEST way to make roasted broccoli and have those caramelized crispy bits! No more soggy, overcooked broccoli.
I’m not going to lie to you. (I never do anyway.) This mac ‘n’ cheese is awesome. VERY awesome. It’s perfectly creamy with a smoky bacon flavor, yet the slight sweetness from the roasted squash still manages to shine through. One of my favorite parts is that it doesn’t bake in the oven forever — …
This stuffed zucchini recipe is filled with fresh herbs and Italian-seasoned ground turkey. A perfect recipe to use up some of that summer zucchini.
The thought of putting peanut butter in a burger intrigued me when this recipe popped up on my reader from Cara’s Cravings. I was feeling daring, so I put it on my to-do list. Steve and I love Thai food, so I guess having peanut butter in a savory dish wasn’t too far off for …
This slow cooker beef roast is inspired by my favorite steak marinade! It comes together quickly and then you can forget about it while it cooks.
Part Three: the ginger rice. I saved the best for last. It may look like plain old rice, but it’s far from it. I could seriously eat an entire pot of this myself. With nothing else on it. I’m not joking. There’s a catch, though. You must like ginger to like this rice. The ginger …
