One of my superpowers is recreating things I’ve eaten at restaurants so I can enjoy it over and over at home! Dozens of recipes on my site are inspired by eating out or traveling. This Jamaica drink is inspired by a recent trip to Mexico and can be made alcoholic or not!

This fun salad features honey roasted peanut + pretzel crusted chicken on a bed of salad greens with a yummy honey mustard vinaigrette! Plus more peanuts and pretzels because… crunchy things in salads are the best parts.
This simple baked honey mustard salmon has only four ingredients! Make it for an easy weeknight dinner alongside some roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
This is the best berry salad I’ve ever had! Beautiful fresh mixed berries tossed in an orange vanilla dressing makes a colorful side dish for any meal or brunch.
This is a naturally sweetened version of the mint limeade drink at my favorite Mexican grill — Cafe Rio. Just send a handful of ingredients for a ride in your blender, and you’ll have this refreshing drink in no time.
This deliciously easy ramen noodle bowl is gluten-free and is packed with loads of shredded vegetables, rice noodles, tender shrimp, and a ginger-soy sauce.
This honey butter recipe has been in my family for decades. Its creamy spreadable texture is due to a secret ingredient that might surprise you. I’ve been making it to give away during the holidays (with a crusty loaf) for years. It always has that eyes-rolling-back effect. ;)
This homemade BBQ sauce is my all-time favorite BBQ sauce. Honestly. It has a balsamic vinegar base and it’s super tangy with just the right amount of sweetness from honey. It’s dark and rich and it makes me so happy. I’ve been making this sauce for years. It was originally part of my Easy Grilled …
If you’re a Starbucks goer, you’ll know what I mean by “Pink Drink” — the famous drink made with Tazo brand passion tea and a hint of strawberry and cream. It’s a delightful combination. Turns out a Pink Drink makes amazing popsicles, too!
I’m obsessed with salmon. Over the last decade I’ve developed dozens of salmon recipes that are easy and delicious and take the mystery out of prepping fish successfully! This Sweet Chipotle Salmon is one of my favorites and I’ll show you how to make it super tasty the very first time — because salmon isn’t …
Today is Steve’s birthday. The big 4-0, people. Steve’s the kind of guy who embraces stuff like that. I embrace it, too . . . on him. I like how his hair is on its way to be salt and peppery just like his dad’s. He’s lucky to have a full, thick head of it, …
When I was a kid my best friend’s mom made these oatmeal fudge cookie bars that I was obsessed with. They had soft, chewy crust with a ripple of thick, smooth fudge throughout. I couldn’t stop eating them. I wanted to make a paleo version, so I took the recipe for “A Big Chocolate Chip …
I REALLY hope you saved some leftover cranberry sauce for these orange cranberry bars. I used my Wassailed Cranberry Sauce, but you can use any prepared cranberry sauce — bonus points if it has some orange flavors in it. These would be a good snack to take with you while you’re shopping all weekend. Are …
This golden milk has a twist of chai spices and collagen protein for some extra goodness. It’s full of warming spices and is perfect for a chilly night.
These protein waffles are paleo-friendly and make a large batch! Whip up a bunch and freeze them so your future self (and kids) will thank you!
A cute, portable protein-filled snack that tastes like brownie batter. Pretty perfect, right?
One of the skills that comes out of creating almost 2000 recipes is reinventing dusty recipes. You’ve had that beloved (and maybe overdone?) rotisserie chicken salad with grapes, right? The one served in a croissant? What if I told you to make a few swaps? My version is familiar, but with a twist, and it …
Pineapple and ginger are the perfect combo for a cool, healthy treat!
Thai Toasted Coconut Cashew Nuts – Great as a grain-free replacement for granola or eaten alone as a healthy snack!
These tasty cloud-like strawberry soufflés are only FOUR ingredients! They’re paleo friendly and easily made keto/low-carb, too.
This breakfast crumble doubles as dessert and breakfast! I love it when they overlap.
Make (and heat up!) this homemade hot chocolate in your high-powered blender! It’s creamy, cozy, and a healthier alternative to store-bought hot chocolate mix on a cold winter day. I included adaptations to make this dairy free, vegan, and keto/low-carb friendly hot chocolate.
The big day is almost here! What are your plans? Traveling? Hosting? Traveling so you don’t have to host?
In the 17 years I’ve spent feeding children, this easy cucumber salad is, hands down, the most loved vegetable side dish in my family. My children eat these marinated cucumbers like potato chips! Thankfully it’s quick and easy to make!
