Thai Vegetable Soup Something happens to me at the end of winter every year. I want to break up with soup. I get so over it. It’s like the first taste of gorgeous spring weather and I’m like bring on the salads and spring flavors. Then inevitably Mother Nature puts me back in my place…

Korean Vegetable Noodle Bowls Say hello to one of my favorite lunches and dinners. These Korean vegetable noodle bowls are so good. Disclaimer: they are definitely not authentically Korean, but inspired by Korean crispy beef bowls and bibimbap from our local Korean restaurant.

Possibly because I am obsessed with spicy, Asian inspired cuisine. Seriously, my daughter is basically made of Thai food because that’s all I ate when I…

Strawberry Crepes Here we are staring down Mother’s Day weekend and strawberry crepes. How did that happen? Wasn’t it just New Years Day and weren’t we just focused on eating healthy? Even weirder: not only are we staring down Mother’s Day weekend but this is my THIRD Mother’s Day as a mom with a child on…

This pasta with white bean sauce is one of the ultimate comfort food dishes for me. I know I have told you all before that my Italian grandma made tons of things like lasagna and twice baked potatoes all the time growing up. Those dishes were sort of special occasion food, but this pasta with…
