Easy Homemade Salsa (Restaurant Style)

May 3, 2023 By Emily

Can I be honest with you? I don't like jarred salsa anymore!!! My fermented salsa ruined salsa for me. It uses fresh tomatoes, and it gets that funky, umami, fermented flavor that I LOVE!!! I needed a salsa didn't rely on fresh tomatoes - when they're not in season - and, that didn't take 2 to 5 days to ferment. So, I started making my easy homemade salsa recipe again!!! THIS homemade salsa recipe is restaurant style. Yes!!! That delicious fresh tasting salsa you get in a Mexican … [Read more...]

Easy Fermented Salsa (Great for Gut Health)

September 7, 2022 By Emily

I have been excited to share this fermented salsa recipe with you for a year!!! I started making it last summer, after my content calendar was already planned...so, I saved it for this summer. Yes, it's September, and I should probably be sharing a soup recipe, or a pumpkin recipe...or something....but, I know you all still have tomatoes coming out of your garden like crazy, so I knew sharing a fermented salsa recipe was still needed. That's the beauty of fermented salsa, it uses fresh … [Read more...]

Basil Pesto Recipe (with Almonds)

August 3, 2022 By Emily

If I could only have one sauce on hand for the rest of my life, it would 100% be basil pesto!!! During the summer we grow a lot of basil, and I often end up using it to make pesto. It's a great way to use up excess basil, and it's such a versatile sauce to keep on hand. It can instantly turn boring recipes into something exciting. I love the fresh, herb-y, tangy, flavor of homemade pesto that's got a nice rich, nutty texture to it. The best part, with the help of a food processor, it is … [Read more...]

Healthy Caesar Dressing (with Greek Yogurt)

September 1, 2021 By Emily

You all probably know by now how much I enjoy a good salad. And, you probably know how much I love using plain, fat free Greek yogurt in sauces, dressings, and dips, in place of other similar creamy things. One, that I know you guys love is my healthy Greek yogurt dill dip. It's one of my favorites too. We make it all the time! The great thing about using fat free Greek yogurt in dips and dressings is that it can replace another creamy fat such as mayonnaise, sour cream, or even egg yolks, … [Read more...]

Easy Jalapeno Sauce (For Dipping, or Drizzling)

May 5, 2021 By Emily

Happy Cinco de Mayo!!!! 🥳 Today, I have for you a super easy Jalapeno sauce that can be used in so many different ways. I first tried this sauce last summer on our family vacation when my cousin made it. He said he had it at a Mexican, or Tex-Mex restaurant, in Texas, where he lives - of course, Texas has delicious Mexican food, so good! Anyways, when he was describing it to me, that all it is is jalapenos blended with avocado oil and lime juice.... I was skeptical. Then I tried it. It … [Read more...]

3 Ingredient Vanilla Cashew butter

October 28, 2019 By Emily

Move over peanut butter, there is a new nut butter in town....and it has vanilla! Cashew butter is kind of hard to come by in the store. If you can find it it's usually either super duper expensive or has additional oils. Since I usually only use cashew butter to spread on toast, I figured why not make my own? It's pretty easy to make, only requires 1 ingredient + 2 more if you want extra flavor, it's cheaper to make than to buy, it's creamy and delicious...and you know exactly what's in … [Read more...]

Tzatziki Sauce (Traditional Greek Sauce)

August 19, 2019 By Emily

I am happy to announce that I have perfected my tzatziki sauce recipe! Finally! I have been making tzatziki sauce for years but it was always just a little too thick...and kind of missing something. This tzatziki sauce you see before you is perfection. It's the ideal consistency for dipping pita chips, pita bread, or veggies into while still being not too thick to spread onto sandwiches or dollop onto salads. Someone bring me a gyro STAT, please! If only I could get my hands on some … [Read more...]
