Hi, Friends. Do you know those moments when you have just returned from a vacation, feeling refreshed and happy to be home, yet you forgot how to do life? What I mean is that even though you are ready to return home, you kind of forget how to get yourself moving the next morning, to be productive, to stick to a schedule and get work done. You're so used to being on vacation doing fun things or relaxing that when you return to reality you just temporarily forget how you used to do things before … [Read more...]

Winter Kale Salad

January 1, 2016 By Emily

Hi everyone, welcome to 2016! I can hardly believe we're here already! It takes me about 2 months to get used to speaking/writing a different year. Please tell me I'm not alone on this! Of course, leave it to me to share a healthy salad on the first day of 2016. So cliche and typical. Listen, I am simply trying to help you stay healthy and on track for 2016! You're welcome. If you're anything like me, you will not want to touch desserts for about a million years after overindulging on … [Read more...]

Roasted Veggie and Wild Rice Power Salad

December 7, 2015 By Emily

Question: Do you have any turkey leftover from Thanksgiving? I know it's been over a week since Turkey day, but I had so much turkey leftover this year (which is never a bad thing) that I needed a way to eat it. This Roasted Veggie and Wild Rice Power Salad is the perfect way to make use of it. If you already gobbled up all of your turkey (haha bad joke), then no worries, feel free to throw in some leftover chicken, or simply keep it vegan. Originally I had thought about making a wild rice and … [Read more...]

Strawberry Cucumber Salad with Creamy Lemon Poppy Seed Dressing

August 28, 2015 By Emily

With the approach of fall just around the corner I simply had to sneak in one more summery salad recipe! If baby spinach, strawberries, cucumbers, and Creamy Lemon Poppy Seed Dressing don’t scream summer, then I’ve got it all wrong! During the summer I always have a huge container of organic, pre-trimmed, pre-washed baby spinach leaves in my fridge just waiting for me to make use of it in a salad. Being a huge fan of whisking up my own salad dressing, I have been playing around with creamy … [Read more...]

Mexican Millet Power Bowls with Chipotle Lime Vinaigrette (V + GF)

July 31, 2015 By Emily

Friends, I am pleased to introduce to you: Mexican Millet Power Bowls with Chipotle Lime Vinaigrette! As I may have mentioned a few times before, Paul and I own a small, charming house that was built in 1910! We fell in love with its beautiful original oak woodwork that adorns the archways, base boards, and crown molding. What does our oak woodwork have to do with Mexican Millet Power Bowls with Chipotle Lime Vinaigrette? I’m getting there. As our house is 105 years old, it is not … [Read more...]

Classic Potato Salad

July 17, 2015 By Emily

Potato salad is one of my ultimate summertime comfort foods. My grandma would make this potato salad all of the time. The sauce was a thick, creamy, stick-to-the-potatoes-and-your-spoon kind of dressing with a kiss of salt and pepper and a hint of yellow mustard. Just as potato salad should be. She would bring this potato salad to almost every family gathering, especially during the summer.  It was rare that she would take any leftovers home. It was just that good. Like most of … [Read more...]

Spinach Berry Salad with Honey Mustard Vinaigrette

July 10, 2015 By Emily

There are times when a girl needs a huge honkin' salad for dinner. Tons of leafy greens, some crunchy nuts, and a good homemade dressing can make the perfect side salad in a pinch. There are also times when a girl needs more; she needs a salad that is going to make her feel amazing for eating so many leafy-good-for-you greens and one that has all sorts of textures and flavors that will keep her satisfied for hours. When I am creating an entree salad I usually opt for kale or spinach because … [Read more...]

Warm Lentil and Sweet Potato Kale Salad (V +GF)

May 11, 2015 By Emily

You guys, I have a new obsession: Lentils! Aside from having lentils in a stew or soup I haven’t experienced them very much until I recently began playing around with them.  Let me tell you, there is so much more to lentils than just soup.   One of the reasons I am really enjoying lentils is because they are the perfect way to incorporate a vegetarian or a vegan meal into your diet. Just 1 cup of cooked lentils contains 18 grams of protein, 16 grams of dietary fiber, along … [Read more...]

Deconstructed Honey Roasted Beet Salad with Whipped Goat Cheese

March 2, 2015 By Emily

Welcome to March! I am so excited that it is March! Spring is on its way! Maybe, kind of soon. I hope. Remember how last week I made my Kale Thai Salad with Peanut Dressing? I discussed how I needed to make more cohesive salad recipes. I kept true to that vow by making another salad! I first ate this salad at a local Italian restaurant last summer and I haven’t been able to get it out of my head since then. It was served to me on a small platter in a deconstructed manner. Instead of all of … [Read more...]

Greek Watermelon Salad

August 11, 2014 By Emily

When I think of summertime, I think of eating big bright juicy slices of red watermelon outside. The juice from the watermelon usually runs down my chin and makes its way to my arm at some point. All while trying to fish for the black seeds in my mouth so that I can spit them out. Watermelon is the ultimate refreshing fruit to enjoy during the summer. It is delicious and fun to eat a slice all by itself. But sometimes it’s fun to play around with fruit. Let’s take watermelon to a new and … [Read more...]
