Chard and Sweet Potato Hash-brown Breakfast

Chard and Sweet Potato Hash-brown Breakfast

Not usually a “healthy eating” fanatic, but these hashbrowns just happen to be really good for you! Honestly I like them better than normal hashbrowns. Since I discovered them on the Centr app (which I highly recommend), they have become a staple weekend breakfast at 

Broccoli and Shrimp Frittata

Broccoli and Shrimp Frittata

I know this combination sounds odd, but it is absolutely fantastic. And the sauce makes it a grand slam. This Asian-fusion frittata is great for brunch obviously, but I have been known to make it for a light spring or summer dinner as well. The 

Angel Hair in Peanut Sauce

Angel Hair in Peanut Sauce

This has been one of my favorite dishes since I started learning how to cook. It’s easy and delicious. I have recipes that swap-in whole wheat pasta to try to be more “healthy” – the flavors usually don’t go! But this recipe was made with 

Gingered Carrots

Gingered Carrots

I am not a lover of carrots. This recipe convinced me I can have them as a side and enjoy it! It’s a great addition to your side repertoire. The original is from “The New American Plate”, so you know it’s healthy. I haven’t made

Pumpkin Cornbread

Pumpkin Cornbread

I absolutely love this cornbread. It’s not only easy to make, but appropriate for all occasions. It strikes that perfect balance between sweet and savory, making it perfect for both. The original recipe is out of “The Pumpkin Cookbook”, and although there is pumpkin in 

Pumpkin Oat Scones

Pumpkin Oat Scones

Another pumpkin scone! These scones are also from “The Pumpkin Cookbook” and they need no adjustment. They are a bit more hearty, and will make you want to sit with a cup of coffee and read the newspaper while eating them. If there was ever 

Lemon Zucchini Salad

Lemon Zucchini Salad

This salad is definitely my current food crush. It really simple and absolutely delicious. The lemon flavor really pops and is the main thrust of this salad. So this is one of those recipes where you absolutely have to use fresh squeezed lemon juice. The
