Peppermint Hot Chocolate Popcorn. Easy. Tasty. Wonderful for a last minute gift or party snack. The longest part of making this popcorn is waiting for the chocolate to re-harden. I love peppermint hot chocolate so much. So much. These cookies are a testament to that. And the day I discovered that homemade popcorn was as […]

Roasted Garlic Hummus. Fall is so close. SOOOOOOO close. It’s the only thing I can think about right now as I sit here praying for cooler weather. As a Seattle native, this business of weeks and weeks of over 97 degree weather has me somehow feeling depressed and super housebound. Any time I hear a droplet […]

Gingersnaps with Mango Chutney and Goat Cheese are the simplest, yet most satisfyingly flavorful little appetizers ever. And they’re pretty, to boot! I’m not sure about you, but the holidays get pretty hectic for me. I never want to go to any Christmas parties empty-handed, but I don’t exactly have all the time in the […]

Adorable Halloween Candy Spiders. Seriously, though. Are these not just the cutest things ever? They remind me of the little balls of soot in Spirited Away, but they’re edible and delicious little candy spiders! And if they’re not the easiest things in the world to make, then I really don’t know what is. Here’s what […]

Raw Coconut Passionfruit Pudding Recipe I know it’s supposed to be fall, but someone has apparently forgotten to tell the weather that. Last week we had a definite cold streak which left me in comfy, cozy sweaters craving nothing but pumpkin pastries and lattes and whatnot, making me feel like falling leaves and Halloween are […]

Skinny Baked Spinach and Artichoke Dip. I absolutely salivate over spinach and artichoke dip whenever I go out to a restaurant and see it on the menu. It is one of the tastiest, creamiest, garlicky-est (yup, just made that a word), and yet most fattening appetizers you could possible imagine eating. I love every moment […]

Dark Chocolate Cherry Almond Smoothie. Whew! It’s been a busy couple of months!  I’ve been working like a crazy person on my web series, Door to Door (if you haven’t watch it yet, please check it out! It’s been such a blast to make so far), I’ve been brought on board by Curious.com as a […]

Seaweed Wrapped Seared Salmon Rolls I absolutely love egg rolls, spring rolls, and sushi… But you know what I don’t love? All the carbs from the rice and wrappers involved 🙁 . It can be a real downer when you’re on a low-carb diet. Sometimes you need to get a little bit creative in your […]

16 Super Bowl Snacks that Won’t Destroy Your Diet: It’s always a mega-crisis, isn’t it? You’ve been invited to a Super Bowl party and you just want to eat everything in sight… But everything is just so bad for you. Whether you’re hosting a party or you’ve been invited to one, why not make a […]

Antioxidant Blast Smoothie with blueberries, spinach, pomegranate, and chia seeds. Did you know that blueberries are not only packed with antioxidants and vitamins like K and C, but they’ve also been shown to improve brain health, cognitive function, and improve memory? They’re rated low on the glycemic index chart, which means that consuming them will […]
