Halloumi Chop Salad

I’ve said before and I will continue to keep saying it – I refuse to let go of summer. It was 90 degrees in our upstairs bedroom today! And we don’t have AC… Painful at night but oh so nice for evening walks and weekends at the beach. Nick and I have been all over…

Grilled Chicken & Corn Salad

What gives off a more summer vibe then grilled chicken and corn? Until recently I haven’t really given much thought to summer recipes versus winter ones.

Crispy Potato & Kale Caesar Salad with Chicken

Welp, I took an unexpected two week hiatus from as changes at my day job doubled my workload overnight! Not a bad thing persay, just an unforeseen change that I was definitely unprepared for. All of a sudden Koa’s nap hours became precious time to catch up on emails or wrap my head around a…

Peanut-y Kale & Cabbage Simple Salad

As I think ahead of life with a newborn, even shorter daylight hours, and lack of time or energy to cook elaborate meals, I am leaning into building up my arsenal of beloved SIMPLE recipes. Not only for my sanity (though don’t get me wrong, I still loooove cooking regardless of the time it takes)…

Loaded Greek Bowls with Feta Dip

My in-laws came to Southern California recently for their first visit to see us since before covid. 2019 feels like a flash in the pan but honestly, that’s almost 5 years! Wild to think about. As both they and my own parents lament, it’s because we haven’t had a room for them to stay in.…
