Caramel Apple Bread Pudding
‘Tis apple season. You can literally feel it in the autumn air. There’s a mix of crispness and warmth…which is coincidentally a great combo for fall food. In fact, everything I’ve been cooking lately has included at least one apple. Seasonal fruit is just so darn tasty! I have a few recipes...

Waldorf Salad
After my horrible attempt at channeling Don Drapper during the Mad Men premier last Sunday, I begrudgingly came to the realization that instead of suave Don, I relate more to Betty right now. Yay me. Haha. In the later seasons of the show, Betty’s story arch swirls around her struggles with weight...

Potato and Apple Latkes
I never understood why people pair potato pancakes with apple sauce. It’s kinda odd, no? Maybe I don’t get it because these delicious fried taters weren’t a big part of my life growing up. In fact, I didn’t even get hooked on them until I had one in France (go figure…good food...

Apple & Brie Tart
Okay! So totally forget to post this yesterday. It’s weird…this week has been a strange combination of being incredibly quick and excruciatingly slow at the same time. Yesterday dragged on (probably cause I started work at 6 am), so I really have no reason why blogging slipped my mind. Hopefully you guys...

Harvest Salad
Let’s face it, the food in fall and winter is amazing. They’re satisfyingly comforting with warm flavors that bring you back to the good old days with friends and family. That being said, those foods often have less than amazing consequences on our waistlines. The other day I announced to all of...

Quinoa with Apples & Arugula
My friend Meagan introduced me to quinoa during college, and I’ve loved this wonder grain ever since. Quinoa was something quick and healthy that we could make, but it was also filling without making us feel heavy. We would crack open a bottle of wine (or three), cook, eat, laugh, and then...

Homemade Applesauce
Since I have so many apples laying around these days, I figured I’d share another simple yet flavorful apple recipe that should be a staple in your recipe box: homemade applesauce. If you’ve never have it, you don’t know what you’re missing. The jarred variety doesn’t capture that in-your-face apple deliciousness that...

Apple Chips
What do you do when you have around 18 lbs of apples laying around the house? You cook…duh! After the great apple picking adventure of 2012, I had more apples laying around than I knew what to do with. Lately I’ve been trying to eat healthier, so I didn’t want to make...

Apple Picking with Meagan
As I write this post, one of my best friends is heading off to Paraguay with the Peace Corps for the next 27 months. It’s going to be an incredible, life changing adventure for her, and I couldn’t help be more inspired and proud. Meagan is such a free spirit who...
