This spaghetti with brussels sprouts and cannellini beans is an homage to an Italian American classic, and an easy stick-to-your-ribs pasta perfect for a weeknight. Beans are one of my all-time favorite ingredients to cook with. I know they’re not everyone’s cup of tea, but as someone who doesn’t eat all that much meat, I…
This coconut carrot ginger soup is one of our fall/winter favorites as it contains some cold-weather staple flavors, including a curried pumpkin seed and jumbo focaccia crouton topping. I love soup. Summer or winter, gazpacho or hearty stew, to me there’s nothing better than a bowl of soup. And while I do love all those…
Mellow out the heat and bump up the sweetness of habanero peppers by using them in a habanero avocado crema, and play up that sweetness by pairing it with honey roasted tomatoes and peppers. While much of my garden did well this year, I did have one stand out crop that produced way more than…

Instead…
We paired these easy to make pumpkin cavatelli with a sage brown butter sauce and spicy Italian sausage for the absolute perfect fall pasta. In a post I made a few weeks ago for these pumpkin pancakes, I mentioned that I was disappointed to realize I only had one other pumpkin recipe on my blog…

This lemon asparagus pasta is the perfect springtime dish, made with thinly sliced asparagus and sweet bright meyer lemons. It may still be somewhat chilly outside, but there’s no doubt that spring is on its way, and fast. And whenever the weather starts to change like this, I immediately start craving the food of the…
