Best thing about winter? Citrus season! If you need me, I’ll be over here trying to find all the ways I can incorporate blood oranges into every meal! 🤣🍊

This blood orange chicken skillet is a blog favorite, and for good reason! The sauce is so freaking good I would drink it by the cup full if I could! Best of all, it’s absolutely gorgeous with the sliced blood oranges on top and the vibrant green olives scattered throughout.
🫒🍗

Make sure you save this one for when Valentine’s Day rolls around so you can make your loved ones a beautiful meal that will make them think you’re the next @inagarten! ❤️🤞🏻👨‍🍳

I don't know about you all, but even if i'm crazy

I don't know about you all, but even if i'm crazy busy, I still try to meal prep a breakfast I can easily grab on the go. In fact, if I'm crazy busy, this just makes it all that more important to have easy meals at my fingertips! 🙌

Overnights are so awesome because they’re:
*easy to make
*cost effective
*taste great when peeped in advance
*quick to assemble
*super portable
*versatile with lots of potential flavor combos

Personally, my stomach doesn’t love eating a big jar of dense oats so I actually lighten up my mixture by adding in some cooked quinoa. I know it sounds weird but you gotta trust me on this one! 🙃

Personally, I love pb&j, but I usually just take this base recipe and switch it up with whatever seasonal fruit and nuts I have on hand. I know you'll love it too! Link in my bio and stories!

What’s your favorite flavor combo for overnight oats?

#sponsored by @larabar Does your “New year, new you” plan involve adding some meal prep into your weekly routine? In addition to spending my Sunday afternoons in the kitchen prepping away, my secret weapon is sneaking a few @larabar protein bars into the mix! 🙌

Meal prepping is key if you want to save money, eat healthier, control your portions and stress less at meal time. But… it can only do all those things if you actually stick with it! The quickest way to burning out and giving up on meal prepping is by biting off more than you can chew (pun intended!) 🤣

I always tell my clients that there’s no shame in getting by with a little help from your friends. Especially if it helps you actually stick to your plan! Bonus points when that helping hand comes in the form of a truly delicious and guilt free #larabar made with minimal ingredients that are always vegan, dairy free, and gluten free. My personal fave, the new cashew cookie bar, only has TWO ingredients: cashews and dates. Mind blown, right?!? 🤯

Focus on prepping a nutrient dense lunch like this quinoa power bowl with roasted beets, winter citrus, and pumpkin seeds, and stash a few #larabar bars in your car for easy snacks on the go. Or, pair one with a quick smoothie for a breakfast that will keep you fueled all morning long. If you’re in the greater Seattle area like me, you can always find them at your local @PCCmarket.

What’s your favorite flavor?

Eating healthier is on everyone’s mind this time

Eating healthier is on everyone’s mind this time of year and I am here for it! In moderation at least 😉 I don’t know about you but I have a hard time getting motivated to eat salads all the time. Afterall, I’m an Irish girl and pretty sure meat and potatoes are in my blood. 🤷‍♀️🥔🥩🇮🇪

The trick is to find ways to jazz up those leafy greens and make them more exciting! 💃✨

For this kale Caesar salad, I made croutons with day old everything bagels and baked a salmon filet with some EBTB sprinkles. Avocado should be standard on Caesar salad IMHO so that makes an appearance as well. Shower with shaved parm and a squeeze of fresh lemon and you have a dinner worthy salad! 🥗Save yourself some weeknight time and energy by using your favorite store bought Caesar dressing.

You can find the link for the full recipe in my bio!

Every Christmas dinner deserves a beautiful side d

Every Christmas dinner deserves a beautiful side dish to wow your family and friends. Move over brussel sprouts, these sumac roasted rainbow carrots with maple tahini and pomegranates are having a moment! 🥕🍽💫

Toss 2lbs of rainbow carrots with olive oil, kosher salt, 1 tbsp ground sumac, 1/2 tsp granulated garlic and fresh black pepper. Roast at 425 until tender, about 25-35 minutes.

Drizzle with my favorite maple sauce (link in my stories) and top with pomegranate seeds and fresh herbs or microgreens. 🌱 I make the sauce ahead of time and drizzle it over grain bowls, veggies and salads all week long. 🙌.

Make ahead friendly, super easy, vegan and gluten free, and a beautiful rainbow of colors, this side dish is everything your holiday meal needs!!

Wishing you all a stress free few days leading up to the big day! ❤️

No matter if your Christmas morning is chaotic, la

No matter if your Christmas morning is chaotic, lazy, peaceful, or crazy pants, let’s be honest… No one wants to spend it slaving over a stove like a short order cook. I’m alllll about a make ahead, meal-prep friendly brunch option that I can pop in the oven while sitting back and watching the memories unfold. 🎅🏻☕️✨

This everything bagel and smoked salmon strata has become a Christmas morning tradition in our family and I know you’ll love it too! Being a Pacific Northwest girl to the core, salmon is part of my DNA, but if it’s not your jam you can easily use this as a base recipe and swap out for sausage, prosciutto, artichoke hearts, wild mushrooms…the list is endless!!

Stratas are best when made the night before so that the bread has time to soak up the delicious, eggy custard mix. I hope this recipe takes a little stress out of a wonderful, but sometimes overwhelming, Christmas morning for us parents. From my family to yours, cheers! 🎄

Everything Bagels and Lox Breakfast Strata
3 day old everything bagels cut into 3/4” cubes
5 eggs
1 3/4 cup whole milk
1/4 cup grated parmesan
1 tsp dijon mustard
3/4 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 small shallot, minced
2 tbsp capers
6 oz smoked salmon or lox
2 cups spinach, torn
4 oz cream cheese
EBTB seasoning
Fresh dill

Combine the eggs, milk, parmesan, dijon, salt, pepper, shallot and dijon and mix until smooth. Grease a medium sized casserole dish, scatter the bagel pieces around the dish and pour the egg mixture over the top. Scatter the spinach pieces, lox, and capers and gently stir into the bagel and egg mix. Top with dollops of cream cheese and additional everything but the bagel seasoning.

Cover and place in the fridge for at least two hours, or ideally overnight.
Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, like a cake, and not with raw eggs.

Top with the fresh dill and serve!

Hi!! It’s been a hot minute! Truth be told, my

Hi!! It’s been a hot minute! Truth be told, my husband has a seasonal business that is straight bananas during the holidays and it’s all hands on deck. 🤪 Sorry for the hiatus but I’m excited to get back at it and have LOTS of exciting plans to share with y’all real soon! 💃

This time of year when life is so crazy for us, shopping and cooking often feels like more effort than I can muster up. So, I end of relying on suuuuper simple, tried and true favorites that can be prepped ahead of time.

Egg salad to the rescue! 🥚 I love to take it to the next level by serving it on top of some toasted hearty bread with mashed avo. 🥑 Top it off with fresh herbs, sea salt and pepper and you are golden. 🌱🙌

Are you a fan of egg salad?

I’m excited to share that my most recent fall meal prep plan is live on the blog! Link in bio y’all! 👆🏻

My blog post goes deep with:
-shopping list
-mix and match menu
-detailed prep instructions
-ideas for breakfast, lunch and dinner

This plan is all about cooking smarter, not harder! It incorporates beautiful fall flavors in a variety of ways so that every meal feels fresh and exciting! Check my story today (or the meal prep highlight) for the full menu. 🙌

This is a photo of the fall lentil bowl with roasted butternut squash, shredded chicken, arugula, feta and pomegranate seeds with a honey balsamic dressing. I could legit eat this every day! It’s somehow hearty, yet light and healthy at the same time, and so freaking flavorful. 💣🥗

Would you be stoked to have this for lunch?
