Does anyone else enjoy peach season as much as I do? This time of year peaches start showing up at the Farmer’s Market, and they are beyond incredible! We eat plenty of them sliced for snacks, and I even put some peeled and diced peach on my pizza last week. It was actually delicious! But my other favorite thing to do with fresh peaches? MAKE PEACH COBBLER! Specifically, this vegan peach cobbler....
Farro is one of my favorite grains. It’s fast, easy and has a great nutty flavor and chewy texture. And it pairs well with pretty much anything you want to throw at it, making it super versatile. That’s definitely my kind of easy-going side dish! It started with my simple farro salad. But you know me, I love to add some veggies! In the spring I love making farro salad with kale, strawberries and goat cheese, and come fall, this harvest farro salad is my go-to....
There is nothing quite like some butter-dripping-down-your-chin, perfectly tender fresh corn on the cob in the summertime, right?! They are the perfect inexpensive side for any lunch or dinner and everyone always wants one… or more! As a kid, we had some of those cute corn cob holders and I loved jamming them in the end so I could pick mine up. I need to get some of those! Grilled corn is great, but it’s so easy to burn or char and it’s just a bit more temperamental....

4.92 16 Published May 02, 2023, Updated Mar 05, 2024 After sharing my version of the viral cottage cheese ice cream I couldn’t resist trying a frozen cottage cheese bark. And I must say, I like this recipe more than my frozen yogurt bark… it’s creamier and packed with more protein. Plus, you can’t beat the peanut butter + chocolate combo. It’s so good! Why You’ll Love This Recipe High-protein: One serving is packed with about 12 grams of protein!...
4.75 15 Published Aug 03, 2020, Updated Jun 20, 2024 I love that fruit salads are so easy to put together — all you have to do is chop the fruit and mix! Plus, the possibilities are endless. Whatever fresh fruit you have on hand (or is on sale) will work. I mean I guess you could potentially come up with a bad tasting combo of fruit for a fruit salad but I don’t think I’ve ever had one....
This post originally appeared on Real Housemoms, where I am a contributor. Happy new week! The Harry Potter symphony show on Friday night was so fun! They played the movie (this was the first one - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone) on a big screen while the orchestra did the musical score. Such a fun experience! Saturday we did our annual family visit to a nearby pumpkin farm, had a gender reveal for a friend of mine (she’s having a boy!...
One of the best things about pork tenderloins is that they cook quickly and feel fancy, so, say you have a romantic Valentine’s Day planned with lots of skiing and canoodling and you want to cook a nice, romantic dinner at home, but you don’t want to spend all day in the kitchen. Or…say you spend Valentine’s Day wrangling children and cleaning up messes and you’re at your wit’s end and you want a nice dinner, but you’re too tired to cook....
Have you ever tried broccolini? I think it’s a pretty fun vegetable. It’s just fun to say even, don’t you think? My three-year-old does at least. It’s also a yummy vegetable and an easy one to work into your repertoire. It comes in a small bunch - only really enough for 2-3 people, assuming you do really like it - and it cooks up quickly. It has smaller florets than broccoli and longer stems, which are delicious and should be eaten....

Admit it- how many of you have served up a steak that looks like it was attacked by Freddy because of all of the knife marks in it from when you cut into it to see how done it was? Or how many of you just guess and end up hearing a faint “Moooo” from the still living slab you just slapped on your plate, or result something so dry you need a gallon of Brazilian lemonade to shove it down....
5 18 Published Jul 23, 2013, Updated Sep 27, 2021 Normally I leave grilling up to our resident grill master, aka Isaac, but we got a new grill this summer and I’ve been experimenting on my own a little bit. So far, I’ve only done grilled summer vegetables, veggies burgers and this tofu, but I’ve really loving it. Everything cooks so quickly and it’s nice not having to turn on the oven....
An especially fruity olive oil is perfect here, so I’m using our Blood Orange Oil. Lemon would also be really great, but any regular olive oil is fine too, of course. I’ve cut my peaches in half here, because they were especially ripe and I didn’t want them to fall apart on the grill. If your peaches are a little more firm, I suggest cutting them in quarters so that more of the surface area of the peach gets grilled....
For me the holidays really kick off today! But today my in-laws come in for a visit, tomorrow my son has his last-ever preschool holiday performance and this weekend my husband and I go for our annual Christmas symphony show. And there’s many more festivities to come in the next few weeks. I am so ready and so excited! ❤️ So let’s get on with it and get on to the food… This healthier caramelized onion dip is such a fun one for snacking or parties....

A few years ago, one of our most popular posts, and one of my favorite, go-to homemade Christmas gifts was homemade vanilla. I still think it’s an awesome idea. However, there are a few downsides. Because vanilla beans are tough and dry, it takes months for them to properly brew, so ideally, this is a project to start in June, and in June, Christmas gifts are the last thing on my mind....
