Recipe #54: Shredded Brussels and Kale Hash with Crispy Parmesan

I’m one of those people who loves breakfast for dinner. There’s nothing wrong with eggs or pancakes at night time, it’s like having a treat. This hash recipe is categorized in the breakfast section of the cookbook but I decided to switch things up. I made this recipe and served it as a side dish…

Recipe #24: Bourbon Maple Candied Pecans

I can’t believe the year is coming the end soon, October sort of flew by. I am now starting month #3 of my Love Real Food cooking challenge (click here to see all posts in this series). I’m loving this cookbook and the recipes are not disappointing me. I know I’m only about 1/4 through…

Simple Roasted Vegetables

When you have lots of veggies that you want to use up, roasting is the easiest thing you can do. It is also my go-to for a simple dinner or side dish. As you can see, I used quite the variety of veggies here, but you can roast as few or as many that you…

Recipe #84: Roasted Cauliflower

I’m a huge fan of roasted vegetables. Whenever I need a side dish for dinner, I just see what I have, chop it up, toss with olive oil, salt and pepper and bake. It’s the easiest thing ever. Cauliflower is one of my faves too. This recipe was super simple and only had a few…

Recipe #80: Maple Cinnamon Almond Butter

I will start by saying that I have never made any sort of nut butter before, and honestly, after making this one, I’m not sure I want to again. It tasted delicious, but it was just more work than I expected. There was nothing difficult about this almond butter, but it seems the food processor…

Recipe #56: Coconut Oil Roasted Sweet Potatoes

This was another simple yet tasty side dish from this cookbook. And it’s probably going to be a shorter post because there just isn’t too much to say about these sweet potatoes aside from the fact that they were delicious.  I love roasted sweet potatoes on their own, but eating them with a chili-lime dipping…

Recipe #50: Roasted Fall Vegetables

This was a really basic recipe for roasted veggies. I did replace the potatoes and butternut squash for an acorn squash but all the other vegetables were the same. I was excited about the fennel because I had never tried it before. But I have to say, I am not a fan of it. I…

Recipe #38: Roasted Whole Salmon Fillet

Cooking salmon with just a little salt and pepper is good, but it’s even better when you marinate and cook it in a sweet and tangy sauce. You also just want to make sure you don’t overcook the fish, but that’s just a side note. This recipe was delicious. The marinade has lots of citrus…
