I got the mini bell peppers from the PMA Foodservice Conference, and quite frankly, I don’t know why I’ve never bought them before. They’re perfect for those times when I just want to eat half a pepper at a time. I also love the flavor of sliced chili peppers in Asian cuisine, but again, they have never entered my kitchen. What took me so long? By the way, quick tip: store extra chili peppers in a sealable bag in the freezer, and they’ll last for months!...

How to Make Sweet Potato Noodles Sweet potato noodles are quick & easy to make with the help of a spiralizer, but if you don’t have one you can use a simple veggie peeler instead! (The process will just take a little longer.) I find it easiest to use a spiralizer that suctions to your countertop (like the Inspiralizer) because sweet potatoes can have a tough texture to work with, similar to winter squash....

These mint chocolate cookies remind me of a chewy brownie in cookie form. Kind of like the chocolate crinkle cookies I grew up eating– you know, the ones that are covered in powdered sugar? This chocolate peppermint cookie recipe is better because it’s entirely grain-free, vegan, and naturally sweetened. You’ll use almond butter instead of flour, similar to my popular almond butter cookies! (Note: this recipe is naturally sweetened until you add in dark chocolate chips and crushed candy cane pieces on top....

The Perfect Chocolate Sugar Cookies Recipe December is here, so guess what time it is! That’s right, it’s baking cookies time. Totally my favorite time of the year because I get to listen to Christmas music, watch tons of Christmas movies and bake all the cookies that I love. It’s pure heaven! Though if I may be honest with you I started at the beginning of October, just saying. And that’s because these cookies are perfect for freezing....

What can I say? I’m a salad gal through and through, I like to bulk mine up and pack them full of super fresh and refreshing ingredients. This salad is a meal on its own and I can eat lots of it, a couple of those plates with no issues.

I love to make simple takeout classics from home like beef and broccoli, egg roll soup, and stir frys. These all make for fantastic dinners, but what about the beloved appetizers? A perfect takeout meal always starts with something crispy, at least in my books. Besides spring rolls, crab rangoon has to be the most popular appetizer for American Chinese restaurants. That creamy filling is just downright addicting! Once you see how simple these are to make, you’ll be shaking your head that you haven’t tried the recipe out before....

Oh meatballs, what more can really be said about them? I mean they’re delicious and I’m a big fan of them, as you can tell by my many meatball recipes here on the blog.

The kohlrabi bulbs are still quite small, and I don’t know if he picks them before they fully mature or whether they’re just a different kohlrabi varietal. In any case, I’ve been buying them every week now and they have quickly become a favorite vegetable. The bulbs, though small, are great when cooked. They are crisp like a turnip or daikon radish, but the taste is closer to a green cabbage....

Naturally, I needed to try making a grain-free version this year. If you ask me, the main requirement for Chocolate Crinkles is that they are chewy and chocolate-y, almost like a brownie. They also tend to be drenched in powdered sugar! Sadly, I have yet to find a suitable substitute for refined powdered sugar. Coconut sugar can be ground in the Vitamix to create a “powdered sugar,” but the flavor is rather strong and it doesn’t seem to work in the same way that traditional powdered sugar does....
