Popeye Sushi Burrito with Garlic Ponzu

Happy Star Wars Day! May the Fourth be with you! Our family always loves an excuse to celebrate and when we’re able to incorporate Star Wars, even better. Today will be filled with Star Wars references, puns, and general silliness. Tomorrow is another day to celebrate. Not only is it Cinco de Mayo, but it’s […]

Post written in partnership with California Avocados. Happy Friday! Are all my friends back east surviving the aftermath of the bomb cyclone? I’ve been watching weather reports and getting the chills just thinking about it. We are currently experiencing warmer than normal temperatures here in Utah and we have very little snow so far. January […]

Last week was Squirrel and Bug’s first week back to school. Squirrel is in the fifth grade and Bug is in the third grade. (How did they get so old?!?) Usually I am just as excited for those first few days of school as they are. I look forward to the return of routine, but […]

Written in partnership with California Avocados. Bibimbap (“bee-beem-bawp”)…saw that 4 times fast and see if it doesn’t put a smile on your face. It does mine! It’s just a fun word. But it’s an even better dish and one of my all-time favorite foods! It’s a Korean rice bowl, and I’ve got a reimagined version […]

It’s that time of year when the weather starts to heat up and I start to crave something cold to drink. One of my favorites is a frappe (basically a fruit milkshake) and I’m sharing a non-dairy version over on California Avocado’s blog, The Scoop! It’s a Cherry Almond California Avocado Frappe and it’s delicious. […]

Have you ever had a cauliflower steak before? I know they’ve been around for a while now, but if you haven’t had one yet, you should! I love them. I’m sharing a bit of a twist on cauliflower steak over on California Avocado’s blog, The Scoop. These cauliflower steaks are roasted with a mashed avocado […]

I am annoyed. Scratch that. I am super annoyed! It is April 28th and it is SNOWING! Excuse me? May starts on Monday and we have cold white stuff falling from the sky? Not cool. We had a long, cold winter this year and a cold spring and it’s starting to take its toll on everyone. I […]

I love falafel. Though love may not be a strong enough word. Seriously. I recently combined falafel and avocado, and putting two of my loves into one dish is just about giving me heart palpitations. I whipped up some baked avocado falafel that are light little pillows that are made even more delicious when combined with […]

Have you had balela before? It’s a Middle Eastern chickpea and black bean salad that I’m a bit obsessed with. If you haven’t had it, you are missing out! If you have, you should probably eat it again. Either way, I’ve got a twist on traditional balela that includes not-so-traditional California avocado. It may not be […]

I know the calendar says that it is officially spring, but Mother Nature can’t seem to make up her mind here in Utah! We will have one or two glorious days of spring weather and then a cold front will swoop in and send me scrambling to dig out my winter coat again. All this […]
