Multigrain Porridge, Two Ways: Savory Porridge & Sweet Porridge
Last updated on April 8th, 2019 Packed with six different grains, this multigrain porridge is so flavorful it requires very little seasoning. Make a big batch and serve it two ways, savory or sweet. It pairs with savory toppings like miso roasted salmon and bok choy for a comforting dinner or sweet toppings like warm…
Salmon Tacos with Green Onion & Asparagus Salsa
Raise your hand if you’ve ever had popcorn and ice cream for dinner because the thought of figuring out what to eat, going to the store, and coming back to cook it was enough to make you need a nap. Real talk. That’s basically mealtime with a new baby in a nutshell. (Also: when can I get that nap?). What if I told you someone would do the recipe planning and shopping part for you and you’d spend only 30 minutes in the kitchen before chowing down on these healthy salmon tacos?
You’d probably get that nap. That’s what.
Today I’m stoked to share about my collaboration with Sun Basket – what kept us nourished for the month after Zoella was born and brought these salmon tacos into my life. But first: let me paint the scene in our house.
DIY Sushi at Home
Last updated on September 26th, 2020 Back in college, you would never have guessed that 10 years down the line, I’d have fallen so hard into a sushi love affair to the point of making DIY sushi at home WHENEVER POSSIBLE. This infatuation with sushi and its rhythmic process make it an obvious choice for dabbling with…
Guilt-free shrimp and veggie fettuccine with cauliflower alfredo
Last updated on April 8th, 2019 Raise your hand if your favorite pasta dish as a child was creamy fettuccine alfredo. Did your house exclusively refer to fettucine alfredo as “Sarah’s favorite pasta” like mine? I’d order it every time I found it featured on a dinner menu and I’d throw in some shrimp for good measure….
Spicy shrimp tacos with cabbage slaw
Last updated on September 14th, 2020 Recipe Rewind February 26, 2014: While eating our way through Nashville this weekend, we stopped by a little home goods shop in Franklin where I gawked over the cutest recipe card box ever. Then I came back down to earth and remembered that I don’t need (another) physical recipe card box…
Smoked salmon soba bowl
Last updated on April 8th, 2019 When you insist on experimenting with new recipes every single week, there are occasional meals when you and your husband awkwardly smile at one another from across the table and you know you’re both wishing you’d just ordered pizza instead. And still, he packs up the leftovers of whatever…
Pan-fried sole & mixed wild rice with roasted grapes (gluten-free)
Last updated on August 29th, 2020 I’ve been in a rut with my dissertation lately. When you’re in a rut, you reflect. Reflect on what’s keeping you from making the progress that you need. Then maybe you can figure out how to get over that and just write your little heart out. And I think I’ve discovered…
Beer battered fish with banana mango salsa
Sometimes worlds collide just so. Over Thanksgiving, my brother (who, you may recall, works for Sierra Nevada) sent me home with an assorted six-pack of Sierra Nevada beer to use in my cooking as part of their Flavor Up challenge (always lookin’ out for his lil’ sis’). Just this week, with my quals finally behind…
Lime ginger albacore
Last updated on April 8th, 2019 Guys, I know I’ve been a bit distant this month. Just know it’s not you, it’s me. August has been a big month, complete with the future in-laws coming for a visit, getting engaged, a bachelorette party, two weddings, and Lucas’s marathon. And we’re only about halfway through that…
Shrimp scampi over fresh angel hair pasta
Last updated on June 18th, 2019 When you’re too busy to go grocery shopping and dinner hour is approaching, you have to make do with what you’ve got on hand. On this particular evening, frozen raw shrimp was what we had on hand – lucky us! We love shrimp, but raw shrimp is so pricey…
Seared sesame crusted tuna with orange ginger soy sauce
Last updated on March 20th, 2014 When I plan our meals, I prefer recipes that serve four. The leftovers get thrown in tupperware to make lunch the next day a breeze. When making seafood, though, I only cook for two. Mostly because fresh local fish is too expensive to be eaten as a weekday lunch,…
Baked herbed salmon
Last updated on July 2nd, 2012 With a trip to Boston smack dab in the middle of finishing a first draft and making serious revisions to my paper, every dish I make gets added to an ever-growing queue waiting to be shared with you. I can’t keep up! On our whirlwind three-day MIT reunion excursion,…
Vegetable Thai curry with fresh crab
Last updated on June 6th, 2014 Another fun fact that I learned at my cousin’s farm is that kaffir lime leaves are the key ingredient to making authentic Thai food. He so casually asked me if I wanted some kaffir lime leaves, and I responded with a blank stare, “some what?” He went on to tell us how one…
Citrus tuna tartare with pear chips
Last updated on July 1st, 2012 While most people are prepping their finger foods for the Super Bowl, Lucas and I are celebrating our two year anniversary (with food) today. Last year, we mixed up the date of our anniversary and didn’t realize until we were done wining and dining, so this year, we’ve arbitrarily…
Seared scallops with blood orange gastrique and fried shallots
Last updated on January 24th, 2014 I declared this national citrus awareness day. Okay, so I don’t have that power, but when planning today’s meals, I couldn’t help but be drawn to the bins of citrus at the produce market: grapefruit, blood oranges, navel oranges, lemon, etc. Whatever I decided to cook, I would be…
Steamed mussels in lager
Last updated on July 1st, 2012 I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I seriously don’t know where people who don’t have a seafood market down the street get fresh fish. We treat ourselves to mussels or clams at least twice a month, but I wouldn’t know where to buy them if Monterey…
Shrimp tacos with spicy cabbage slaw
Last updated on August 2nd, 2019 Christmas 2011 was the year of kitchen gifts. We have the world’s smallest kitchen (seriously, it’s smaller than our bathroom – we have one cabinet), but everyone knows that contributing to my kitchen accessories is always the best bet. And our kitchen is bursting at its seams already. Even Lucas…
