Everyone loves a tortilla soup. Literally everyone. They're smoky and spicy and this one is packed with good-for-you ingredients like bell peppers, sweet potatoes, and quinoa. Smoked paprika, cumin, and cayenne pepper pack it with flavor, and topping it with fresh avocado, cilantro, and crispy tortilla strips makes this your favorite meal to enjoy on Meatless Monday. Also, cheers to making it through January! It felt like a long month to me, but truthfully I can't complain given the ... continue reading...
Chicken Parmesan Pasta
It seems like quite a bit of the country is suffering from a "polar vortex" with temperatures way below zero, cancelled schools, and lots of snow.

Kevin and I met at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri, ... continue reading...
Maple Almond Granola
One of my favorite things is homemade granola and plain Greek yogurt with some fruit. It's so simple to make and to customize that my kids can make it relatively unsupervised.

The ingredients used in this ... continue reading...

Nice and light, packed with fresh vegetables and herbs, and finished with a bright lemon flavor, it is the only thing you'll want to enjoy as you wait for warmer ... continue reading...
Cranberry White Chocolate Bars
Up until a few months ago, I had never tasted a cranberry bliss bar from Starbucks. I realize this is shocking, as they have a bit of a cult following. Plus here in the Seattle area there are Starbucks coffee shops approximately every 100 yards (there are 5 within a 3 mile radius of our house and we live in the suburbs). Thankfully, I had one at a friends' house a few months ago and realized what I was missing. Sometimes there are things that I take a bite of and immediately think: I ... continue reading...
