The Super Foodie :: Roasted Sunchoke Soup
Jerusalem Artichokes — also known as sunchokes — are one of the vegetables I get most excited about when Fall comes, and in the next few weeks they’ll reach their peak. They’re so delicious when roasted with a little olive oil and sea salt, and when I have time to spend in the kitchen, they […]
Tuesday Tastings :: Black Quinoa Chopped Salad
I’ve got to admit that my weekend stomach bug put a bit of a hiccup in my recent detox efforts — there’s just something about being in recovery mode that makes me want to eat nothing but slice after slice of buttered toast (hello, gluten!) Thankfully, I’m back in the saddle and loving the taste […]
10 Best Smoothie Recipes
If you ask me, there’s no better way to incorporate fresh ingredients and natural sweetness into your diet than with a refreshing, fully-loaded smoothie. Whether you turn to your blender (or Vitamix, or Magic Bullet) for your morning fuel or an afternoon pick-me-up, let the drink serve as your tool to achieving healthy New Years resolutions (remember […]
Bottoms Up :: Blueberry & Ginger Smoothie
You should probably know that as I type this, my lips are smurf-blue… and it has nothing to do with the wintry temps outside and everything to do with the very tall glass of this blueberry & ginger smoothie I just downed. I’ve been doing my own modified (i.e. less hardcore) version of a detox […]
Tuesday Tastings :: Barley Risotto with Root Vegetables
Today’s installment of Tuesday Tastings is brought to us by the fabulous Liz McAvoy — foodie, fashion lover and author of What Dress Code?. Since we’re all about healthy eating and fresh starts this month, we knew we could turn to the lifelong pescatarian for a resolution-friendly recipe that’s also hearty and delicious. From Liz: Risotto […]
The Super Foodie :: Miso Glazed Eggplant
When I spotted these tiny eggplants at the farmer’s market, I just knew I had to have them at my next dinner table! Roasted with a sweet miso glaze, they’re as tasty as they are adorable. I prefer chickpea miso but if you can’t find it, a sweet yellow miso will work as well! In […]
Tuesday Tastings :: Coconut Carrot Soup
I’ve finally faced the facts that I, for one, cannot live on liquids alone (sayonara, juice cleanse!)… but I do think there’s something to be said about giving our bodies a digestive break and tapping into the healing properties of a liquid meal once in a while. Of course, when temps are as chilly as […]
Pumpkin & Gingersnap Pie
Are you more of a pumpkin, pecan or apple pie kinda gal? (and yes, “all of the above” is a totally acceptable answer.) Although I wouldn’t pass up any of them if offered, pumpkin pie (which to me is the pure essence of fall) is probably my most eagerly anticipated item on the Thanksgiving menu. And […]
13 Best Thanksgiving Turkey Recipes
Today I’m thankful that I made it through putting this slideshow together without heading out to the nearest grocery store for a giant ready-made turkey. I’m not the biggest meat-lover, but combing through the internet in search of these recipes quickly had my mouth watering at the thought of next week’s smorgasbord. How are you […]
10 Best Vegetarian Cookbooks
Growing up, a family trip to the farmers market was always a highlight of the weekend. I’d always enjoyed helping out in the kitchen, but being allowed to pick out colorful, vibrant vegetables with my own two curious hands instilled a whole new meaning in my cooking experimentation. These days, though I’m not a vegetarian, […]
Tequila-Lime Fish Tacos
For this edition of In Season, I’m hereby declaring it Tequila Season (I was going to say taco season, but for those of us in Austin, taco season is really a year-round celebration). I can’t think of any better way to beat the summer heat than with a bright, zesty serving of fish tacos. I start […]
10 Best Blueberry Recipes
My family moved to Missouri when I was 9, and some of my favorite childhood memories are heading to the nearest “U-Pick” farm, spending hours out in the blueberry fields filling our baskets, and leaving with even fuller bellies from all the snacking we did along the way. These days I do most of my […]

How to Make Your Own Caramelized Nuts
