Telling food stories, one kitchen at a time
Ekk. I have the 3am insomnia, friends. That tossing, turning, so much on my mind that I can’t fall asleep and stay asleep kind of night. That may-as-well-write-about-all-the-kale kind of feeling. Do you ever get that feeling? The Kale Yeah! kind of feeling? You will when you eat my Superfood Kale Salad.

I can’t get enough. I’m eating it every day. I’m bringing it to work for lunch and I’m eating it at home for dinner — I even ate it for breakfast one morning this week ’cause…Roasted Pumpkin and Goat Cheese Salad is SO SIMPLE and GOOD.
…
Ekkk. I know. This is very bittersweet for me. So many mixed feelings.

I mean, tomato season is on its way out the door. Don’t shoot the messenger. Just tellin’ it like it is. This is my absolute favorite way to eat tomatoes. I know I said the same thing last week. I wasn’t lying. Tomato & Goat Cheese Tart is crazy delicious. But its totally allowable to have a two-way tie, or an eight-way, or even a 17-way tie in the food world.

I’m republishing this almost one year to the day! Should I wait another three days to republish, so that my perfectionism can sing its heart out with the fortuitous bliss that is 365 days by accident? Nope. I want to share this with you NOW! Peach season is upon us and I can’t think of anything else I would rather make with my Farmer’s-Market-Fresh Peaches. Not even cake or cobbler or pie. Just this salad, which is healthy and indulgent both at once, and which is my favorite kind of food.

Smoked Salmon Salad Bites take just five minutes to make and are perfect for a quick snack or light meal. This recipe is low in calories, but packed with protein and those good-for-you fats. …
