Hash Browns
It’s never too early to start thinking about what kind of impressive breakfast plate you’re going to make for yourself when you crawl out of bed at 9am this coming Sunday morning. The inspiration for this recipe came to me a few weeks ago, after our failed Devil’s Path hiking trip. We woke up exhausted […]
Burger Bowls with Special Sauce
How was your fourth of July? Did you go anywhere or do anything or see anyone fun? Are we supposed to do any of the above in the days of the ‘rona? I’m not sure, but we definitely did all of the above. A little over two years ago my mom informed me that she […]
Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings
Yes, I know, it’s another recipe for chicken wings. But if we know one thing for sure, it’s that people love their chicken wings! There are so many different flavor options out there. So far I’ve created healthy and Whole30 renditions of classic Buffalo and Crispy Garlic (think garlic Parmesan). Since Lemon Pepper is another […]
Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins
Until about three years ago I loathed zucchini in baked goods. Growing up my grandfather had an enormous garden and he grew all kinds of vegetables, zucchini included. My grandmother always used to make baked goods with zucchini in them all summer long, and it really infuriated my 7 year old self. I still ate […]
BBQ Bacon Meatballs with Sweet Potato Puree
If you’re a longtime follower of my blog, you are probably already aware of my obsession with meat in the shape of balls. I don’t know what it is about meatballs but they just do it for me. I love bringing them on day hikes because they’re a perfect little portable pop of protein right […]
Zucchini Fries
I’m continuing on with the fair food, because I have the sinking feeling that fairs and carnivals will continue to be canceled the closer we get to autumn. Fairs may be canceled, but that won’t stop me from eating my weight in fair FOOD right here in the comfort of my own apartment. And in […]
Crispy Garlic Chicken Wings
I can’t in good faith call these Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings to the rest of the world even though that’s what I call them in my head. You know why? Because no cheese was harmed in the making of these wings. This recipe is a Whole30 compliant substitute for garlic parm chicken wings. Spoiler alert: […]
Air Fried Pizza Chicken
What’s a girl to do when she just wants to be face deep in a pizza, but she doesn’t want to consume 13,000 calories? It’s one of life’s important questions. Luckily, I have a delicious solution for you! All you need is an air fryer and a half hour to get a delicious dinner on […]
Watermelon Cucumber Salad
Now that we’re solidly into the month of June we are officially getting to that point here in Connecticut that it will soon be too hot to cook inside. Or wear pants. In the summer months I am all about the no-cook meals. I hate heating up the apartment every single day making food. Completely […]
Air Fried Plantains
I LOVE plantains. I can’t believe I never gave them the time of day until I did my first round of Whole30 in January 2018. I made plantains a ton that month and I still do, but I used to smoke up the whole apartment with all that oil and a somewhat long cooking time. […]
