My kitchen has always been a bit out of control. I guess that happens when you like to cook. A mere weeks after I moved into my current house I can remember having a somewhat embarrassing conversation with coworkers about how badly overflowing my refrigerator was. Already. “But overflowing with what?” They asked. “I’m not really sure. I’ve got a lot of chutneys.” That was all I could come up with....

Zucchini – Yellow squash works great, too! Of course, summer squash fries won’t actually taste like potatoes, so if you want a veggie option that tastes closer to those, make my rutabaga fries or jicama fries instead. Grated Parmesan Cheese – This makes a healthy breading in place of breadcrumbs, and adds tons of flavor. I prefer grated parm from a shaker can for this recipe, because it doesn’t melt as easily....

What Makes This Recipe So Good Like other white fish, tilapia is nice and light, not at all fishy-tasting. The air fryer is perfect for tilapia because it gives it a nice, crisp crust while the fish stays moist and tender inside. Plus, it’s a much lighter option than battering and deep-frying or even pan-frying.Because the flavor of the fish itself is so light, you can pair it with almost anything and your meal will always taste amazing!...

Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for my avocado salsa recipe, what each one does, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card. How To Make Avocado Salsa Storage & Meal Prep Sorry, avocado salsa doesn’t store well and is best enjoyed fresh. The avocado will brown within a few hours. However, you can meal prep by mixing all the other ingredients without the avocado, up to 1-2 days ahead....

With other bacon asparagus recipes, I’ve noticed that often times the asparagus is soft before the bacon has had the chance to crisp up. I was on a mission to avoid this, and discovered that the trick is similar to my foolproof crispy bacon in the oven. Although oven baked asparagus tastes great on its own, properly cooked bacon takes the flavor to the next level. Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for asparagus wrapped in bacon, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options....

Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for my easy baked salmon recipe, what each one does, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card. Salmon Tips: Try to get skin-on salmon if you can — it gives the fish the best flavor, even if you don’t eat the skin. But skinless is just fine if that’s what you’ve got. You can make baked salmon recipes with pretty much any species of salmon....

What Makes This Recipe So Good This Chinese-inspired dish is super fun to throw together! Once all veggies are chopped and the beef is sliced, it takes less than 20 minutes to cook. Start by stir-frying the beef, then the veggies, and finish by tossing everything together in the same wok or skillet!This beef lo mein is loaded with tender chunks of the tastiest beef! A touch of soy sauce and garlic is enough to leave this beef exploding with delicious flavor....

If this post were a movie… it’d start in the present and flashback to the recipe. The present moment? You’ve just had a sip of this perfect summer cocktail and are ordering fourteen more. And a cab. Please. Or Lyft.. whatever. And please don’t use Facebook after mojito, oh, number two. I first had a blueberry mojito at a swanky bar downtown and was surprised by how well the mint, lime, and blueberries worked together....

This recipe requires such a simple selection of ingredients, but I think you’ll be surprised at just how flavoursome it is! Follow me… Bacon and Broccoli Bacon and broccoli is a match made in heaven and we’re not here today to witness its divorce. In fact, we’re going to celebrate it! Roasted Broccoli I actually prefer to roast the broccoli, as opposed to steaming or boiling it. I find you develop a lot more flavour that way....

Homemade veggie burgers have a reputation for lacking texture. And often they do. But they don’t have to! The key to creating a veggie burger with excellent texture is all in the ingredients you use. If you make a burger out of just beans and seasonings it’ll be pure mush. You need to add textural ingredients! I’ve experimented with this in the past and came up with a lot of great combinations....

What Makes This Recipe So Good I’m by no means opposed to boiling cabbage on the stovetop, but sometimes you want a method that’s a little more hands-off. Enter: Instant Pot Cabbage! This method for buttery cabbage could NOT be easier. Just add everything to the Instant Pot, push a couple of buttons, and in basically 15 minutes you’ll have a perfectly cooked side dish!Cabbage is super nutritious! Vitamin A, iron, magnesium, potassium, folate – not to mention it’s high in fiber and antioxidants, which can protect your body from damaging free radicals....

Creating recipes for vegan baked goods is tricky! This vegan pound cake is a prime example of that. I thought an eggless and dairy-free pound cake would be so easy. I was so wrong! Over the past few months I’ve made many, many attempts, and failed many times while trying to create a vegan pound cake recipe. I have a massive stash of failed cakes in my freezer at this point (because even the fails, while not ideal, were still delicious)....

🌶️ What Makes This Recipe So Good If you’re a fan of big, bold flavors and super satisfying ingredients, you’re in luck! Every bite of this Cajun chicken salad is full of flavor. From the Cajun-spiced chicken breasts, to the fiery pepper jack. The vibrant red onions and cherry tomatoes, to the tangy Cajun ranch dressing. Salads like this one are great for meal prepping. It’s so easy! Just assemble the salad in one container (though I’d hold off on adding the avocado slices until you’re about to eat)....

For today’s post I’ve decided to talk about one of my absolute favorite vegetables of all time: broccoli rabe! During my early twenties I waited tables at an Italian chain restaurant in downtown Philadelphia. It certainly wasn’t a favorite job, but I did learn a few things, among them, to avoid chain restaurants when dining out, and of the existence of broccoli rabe. I think I actually went around for the first month or so without any clue as to what the stuff was, thinking it was just broccoli and the “rabe” was an extra bad typo repeated in multiple locations throughout the menu....

With the classic combo of tomatoes, basil, mozzarella, and simple dressing, this is an iconic side dish for any Italian meal… just like the ones I had when I visited the island of Capri in Italy! (There, they called it insalata Caprese.) And unlike other Italian-inspired salads like artichoke salad and arugula salad, a Caprese salad needs no greens. Caprese Salad Ingredients Here I explain the best ingredients for tomato Caprese salad, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options....

Low carb cauliflower recipes have always been an epitome of healthy comfort food for me. It’s no surprise that this veggie came to mind again for a keto hash brown substitute.
