Sausage, Beans & Greens Soup

January 28, 2014 by heather 2 Comments

Sausage, Beans & Greens Soup

I have a thing with soup. Something about a simmering pot of soup on the stove is just comforting to me. The stirring, the taste testing – and then later knowing that you’ve got an easy, go to meal just waiting for you! The other day I was craving sausage and grabbed a pack of…

Nourishing Kale and Bean Soup

Nourishing Kale and Bean Soup

  January. The time where many  make resolutions, mostly revolving around eating better, exercising more and generally trying live a healthier life. I’m three days in to re-committing to clean eating. I kind of had a torrid affair with all things sweet over the holidays and my body is not happy. Not at all. I…

Chili Lime Halibut with Kale Pesto

I get really excited when I find a reasonable price for fresh, wild caught Alaskan halibut at my favorite market. It is truly my favorite fish to cook and eat. It has such a wonderful texture and buttery flavor and is easy to grill or sear on the stove top. No fishy smell or taste,…

Massaged Kale Salad with Lemon Garlic Vinaigrette

Massaged Kale Salad with Lemon Garlic Vinaigrette

Kale is so fabulous for you, and I eat it sauteed, in soup or in casseroles all the time. But to be honest, kale salad has kind of intimidated me. Kale can be kind of tough and it’s just a lot of chewing, you know? I decided to face my fears and I took on…

Sauteed Kale with Almonds & Golden Raisins

Sauteed Kale with Almonds & Golden Raisins

I’m in love with kale. It’s true. It’s like cabbage and spinach had a baby. A super nutritious baby, packed full of dietary fiber, protein, thiamin, riboflavin, folate, iron, magnesium and phosphorus. It’s also a very good source of vitamins A, C, K, B6, calcium, potassium, copper and manganese. In other words? Go out and buy…

Kale Smashed Potatoes with Chicken Sausage

I was in Trader Joe’s the other day and they were handing out samples of their premade mashed potatoes mixed with kale. Of course I tried it – and it was SO good. A really amazing combination. I marched myself right back to the produce department and grabbed some potatoes and kale – I knew I…

Sesame Kale Chips

Sesame Kale Chips

Here’s the deal: I’m not going to lie and be all like “These kale chips taste JUST like potato chips.” Because that would be a bold faced lie and I know you’re not dumb. The only similarity is that they have salt on them and are vegetables. (This is a pet peeve, by the way….
