From the cookbook Jerusalem, Roasted Butternut Squash with Tahini and Za’atar is a new staple in my kitchen. You may as well go ahead and double — or triple — this recipe because you won’t be able to put your fork down once you dive in.
Look at me! Blogging away! It has been almost four months since I wrote about Nico and his Ragù alla Bolognese. I know you’re just dying to know the details of where I’ve been and what I’ve been doing, who I’ve seen and who’s seen me. But a lady never tells. Zipped lips.

This authentic recipe for Ragù alla Bolognese is well worth the hour it takes to make. You’ll have plenty for a family dinner, plus extra for the freezer. You should also know that it’s damn delicious and it very well may make you cry.
I met Nico in Spain.

Does this sound like a love story yet? It sort of is. I fell in love with many people and things in Spain and Nico is one of them.

Salmon Nicoise Salad with Dijon Caper Dressing tastes like a “treat yourself” meal, but it’s gluten free, sugar free, low-carb, paleo-friendly, and deceptively easy to prepare. I developed this recipe for Healy Eats Real, so click here to get the recipe!
I’ve always liked salmon a lot, but currently: for real obsession status.
And I don’t think I’m exaggerating here.

Do I really even need to talk about these Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Nachos or do those pics speak for themselves?

Air Fryer Coconut Shrimp with Piña Colada Dip is a healthy, tropical summer appetizer. Eat four or five of them paired with a side salad for a light meal. Air frying shaves off calories and fat, but you keeps the shrimp brown and crispy.
There is nothing worse in my window unit Chicago apartment than turning on the oven in July. Except, perhaps, turning on the oven in August. The kitchen is the only room in my apartment without an AC unit and many a day you can find me foodblogging away over the oven or stove, droplets of sweat beading on my forehead and pooling right under my eyes. Because you gotta do what you gotta do for the blog, right?
