I want a dish that fills me up and leaves me satisfied but also that fuels my body and does not leave me sluggish and tired.Continue reading “Fall Grain Bowl with Creamy Tahini”

Flank Steak Ragu
As the weather cools off, I want heartier food that warms my soul. This ragu is no exception. Full of tender chunks of steak seasoned to perfection. It is great over pasta, polenta or all by itself! Top it with some freshly grated parmesan or a spoonful of ricotta for an extra something special. ThisContinue reading “Flank Steak Ragu”
Baked Berry Oatmeal with Almond Butter
Oatmeal is a classic breakfast dish – but let’s be honest, oatmeal isn’t always the most satisfying thing to eat for breakfast. It can be mushy and bland if not cooked right and no one wants that to start their day off. That is where this baked berry oatmeal comes in! It is easy toContinue reading “Baked Berry Oatmeal with Almond Butter”
Chicken Gyros with Tzatziki
I’ll admit, these photos kinda look like tacos but they are far from it – or is a gyro considered a taco? Maybe that is why I love gyros so much, they are just mediterranean tacos! These are definitely not mexican tacos though – they are filled with so much flavor and fresh vegetables withContinue reading “Chicken Gyros with Tzatziki”
Grilled Polenta with Roasted Tomatoes and Burrata
Polenta – the humble grain. It is often overlooked and forgotten about, but it shouldn’t be. It is so versatile and takes on the flavors you use. It can also be served hot and fresh with the consistency of a risotto. Or you can cool it and let it set and then grill or fryContinue reading “Grilled Polenta with Roasted Tomatoes and Burrata”

Mediterranean Meatballs with Tzatziki
If you couldn’t tell by the recipes I share I love making meatball dishes – all types. I think they are more fun to eat than a burger patty or in a ground skillet. They are the perfect size and are easy to cook evenly. These meatballs were inspired by mediterranean flavors featuring olives, feta,Continue reading “Mediterranean Meatballs with Tzatziki”
Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce
I love thai food – in fact I eat it almost every week. It is just so good and flavorful. I also 75% of the time order the chicken satay as either an appetizer or as my meal because who doesn’t love it? Honestly though, I am just using the chicken as a delivery systemContinue reading “Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce”

Grilling season is not over yet and before it ends, you absolutely need to make these chicken skewers! These feature a homemade teriyaki sauce that is much better than any store bought version you have ever used. The teriyaki is sweet, salty, and a bit spicy to really hit all those taste buds.
