Video: How-To Make Hummus
If you came into my kitchen and opened up my fridge I could just about guarantee that you would find some hummus in there!
It’s a staple around here. We eat it often.
And although it’s not always homemade, every time I make it from scratch I’m always left thinking the same thought…
Video: Brown Rice 101
While I think on the whole, my body does better with less grains, brown rice does happen to be one of my faves as far as grains go.
I especially love fat, plump, and sticky short grain brown rice but don’t worry if you don’t know the difference between short grain and long because I’ve got it all covered in this video.
Video: Popcorn Broccoli
Salt, pepper, olive oil and garlic. This, my friends, is a winning combination that will never let you down.
Which I why this simple combination paired with roasted broccoli is a go-to side dish in our house.
It’s quick.
It’s simple.
And yes…

This is another video that we shot nearly a year ago (when I was still pregnant with Jachs!) and are finally able to share! The only catch is that I forgot to take a photo of the final product so you’ll just have to use your imagination until I get to make this one again… enjoy!
Video: Baked Sweet Potato Fries
UPDATE: This is not a new recipe but I wanted to share a video demonstrating the technique! Still one of my go-to-faves whenever I’m in the mood for fries!

I think I’ve mentioned it before but that won’t stop me from saying it again, “I love fries”. Love em’!
What’s not to love? Seriously, you tell me because I can’t think of one thing.
I also love sweet potatoes (what can I say, I just love food)… so needless to say, these fries really do it for me; they’re the best of both worlds.
Dark Chocolate Covered Pomegranate Drops
My apologies for being so MIA the last couple of weeks. We have been shooting lots of videos for the New Year and I was preparing the family to head back East for the next few weeks. That paired with x-mas cards and holiday shopping and you’ve got a girl that’s been fairly ‘offline’…
Warm Lentil Salad Speckled W/ Kale and Pomegranate Seeds
I believe that everything in life happens for a reason.
I have been wanting to share this Warm Lentil Salad with you guys for years (no exaggeration). It’s a recipe that I learned when I attended The New School of Cooking over 5 years ago it’s been one of my ‘no-fail-go-to-salads’ ever since.
But for whatever reason, it just never made it to the blog, and now I know why…
Persimmons Pomegranate Salad with Butter Lettuce and Arugula
As much as I love the East coast and my Jersey roots there are a few things in California that I would find very, very, very hard to leave behind… the weather (obviously!), the year-round outdoor activities (especially the hiking!), and of course the Farmers markets (aka the availability of amazing, seasonal, top-notch ingredients).
But since having Katie and Jachs, I have found it much harder to peruse the farmers markets like I once did. Rather, I often find myself b-lining it straight to my favorite vendors and buying the same old produce week after week… until now… because I finally decided to join a local CSA (and I am absolutely giddy about it!).
Clean Eating Individual Apple Crisps
Fall is in the air and what better way to welcome this cool, brisk, colorful season than with a sweet, warm, ooey, gooey, apple crisp?!
But as we all know, too much of a good thing is simply too much, so I thought I would encourage the practice of moderation by making this crisp into individual sized portions. This way I could enjoy a little seasonal, sweet treat without over indulging (which I have been known to do when presented with warm fruit desserts!).
KidBite: Whole Grain Elbows With Lentils
It’s been a while since I’ve shared a KidBite.
It’s not because my kids don’t eat, rather that I’m not a very good multi-tasker and trying to figure out how to balance two children with everything I would like to be doing in my life without falling into the abyss of complete exhaustion is something I’m still working on.
Everyday I promise myself that I’m gonna share all of the great recipes, tips, ideas, etc. that I have about living a Clean & Delish life (family style) here on the blog, but after the mini’s are in bed and my day of ‘doing’ is over, I just can’t seem to resist the desire to allow my brain to melt into a puddle of ‘being’.
But with that being said, I just couldn’t wait to share this recipe with you guys…
