Avocado Radish Toasts

2015 may be the year of the toast, but I’ve been mashing avocado into bread for many years.  It almost never gets old and the variations can go on for days (or even years).  I love adding something crunchy (or green), and a bit of citrus to brighten it up.   Plus, a little olive […]

Nutella Molten Cakes + No-Churn Cherry Cheesecake Ice Cream

ed. note: Since our entire team has fallen in love with the decadent, beautiful, and perfectly-named blog Butterlust, we invited its creator, Katie, to pop by the site once a month in an all new series called “The Sweeter Side.” She’ll be sharing at-home recipes for ending the meal (or starting the day) on a sweet note, […]

My Favorite Slow Cooker Recipes

Guess what? I finally have a slow-cooker in my life! Apparently I dropped enough hints, because my mom and my mother-in-law each got us this beauty for Christmas (yes, we returned one), and my favorite hobby of the new year has been testing out recipes that I can throw in the cooker in the morning… then reap the […]

Mini Dill Frittatas

Like many of us, I’m trying to cook and eat as pure as possible these days.  It’s a little cold for green smoothies every morning, so I’m opting for another simple & wholesome breakfast.  These mini frittatas take almost no time at all, and are the perfect breakfast for an easy weeknight breakfast or weekend […]

Linguine with Kale & Caramelized Onions

For some, it’s online shopping, for others, it’s their boxed set of Lost DVD’s… I, personally, get more than a tiny bit obsessive about new cookbooks (seriously, it’s a problem.) Over the holidays, I literally couldn’t stop reading At Home in the Whole Food Kitchen, the new vegetarian cookbook by chef Amy Chaplin. The mouthwatering photos, nourishing and simple […]

10 Best Detox Drinks

When I submitted my New Year’s resolution to this post last week, I wasn’t being entirely truthful. While I did mention that I’d resolved to be more of a morning person, I didn’t list the other half dozen resolutions I’ve embraced — probably more than any one person can realistically take on. In addition to waking up early, and cutting […]

He was born in Oslo, Norway and raised by his Auntie Gunnvor (Great Aunt) and Mormor (grandmother) who nurtured his love of cooking and crafting at an early age.
