butternut squash hash

I used to be a total sucker for sweet breakfasts, so I really started skipping them in general as I got older (and had to stop eating frosted mini wheats for breakfast every morning). Oh, and Pop-Tarts? Don't even get me started. Now that we're living a healthier lifestyle (at least as much as possible), I've embraced the savory breakfast with open arms. 

creamy curry chicken vegetable soup

I've been feeling a bit eh since Thursday, and all I've been craving is soup. Since I have a serious Thai obsession, I decided to recreate my own version of chicken panang. This slow cooker meal is so easy, filling, and delicious.

paleo bread revisited

Not too long ago, I posted a recipe for "paleo" bread. Since then, I've tried this honey-free version a few times, and like it even better. Judging by the speed with which it disappeared from my home, my husband also approved of this modified recipe {although it is still not as pretty as Elana's version, which is the inspiration for this recipe}.

kale salad

Kale is one trend I've jumped on board with that I'm pretty sure my children won't make fun of me for in twenty years (unlike my lipstick in high school). More often than not I sauté it in with spinach, onions, and plenty of garlic to overcome the rather bitter taste. Last week I made this salad, however, and have a new perspective on raw kale.

beef, spinach and mushroom crust-free quiche

Brunch is one of my favorite weekend past-times. I love brunching out, lingering over mimosas and chatting about everything and nothing until well past the noon hour. On the other hand, I also love waking up, lounging around with a latte, and then leisurely making a bite to eat {mimosas are still included}. Frittatas are one of my favorite dishes, in part because you can basically throw in whatever ingredients you have on hand.
