This Instant Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup is the FIRST recipe I ever made in my pressure cooker, and I’ve been head over heels for this workhorse appliance ever since.

Berry Green Smoothie (Meal Prep)

I have a theory. It’s that everyone wants to eat well (meaning: healthier, better-for-you, more nutrient dense foods) on a regular basis. But sometimes it feels too damn hard to plan, prepare, and cook your own meals at home. The solution? Meal prep. And the easiest place to start is with just one meal a…

Quick Roasted Garlic Cloves

Many of the most epic sauces, soups, and spreads owe their depth of flavor to one thing – roasted garlic cloves!

So today I’m sharing my favorite method…

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon + Parmesan

Plain steamed veggies have no business gracing a holiday table. But roasted veggies, baked in rich avocado oil, tossed with crispy matchsticks of organic bacon, garnished with large curls of sharp Parmesan cheese, and lovingly drizzled with a balsamic reduction? That sounds like my kind of holiday side dish. This recipe for Roasted Brussels Sprouts…
