Roasted Beet & Greek Yogurt Dip

Good morning! I’m traveling for work today in LA and planning to hit up some fabulous spots for breakfast and lunch. It’s always fun to be trying food in a city that’s not your own – and there’s nothing like doing the “work hard, play hard” thing and falling into bed, exhausted, at the end […]

Summer Veggies with Mint Pesto

I love meals that are full of veggies. Especially if I can use the entire veggie – this one incorporates the tops of the radishes I put in, for instance. Also, it’s kinda purty, don’t you think? Let’s talk about edible flowers for a second, by the way: I have seen them at so many […]

Beet Purée with Yogurt and Za’atar

I have been planning to make this gorgeous beet paste forever. I have a brand new bag of za’atar and I was really excited to use it… except I left it on my desk at work for almost a week. And I would get home, and note that I still had my roasted beets in […]

Apricot Jam

Annnnd we’re back! It’s been a very busy week; the kind of week that means blog activities may have to take a backseat. Now I’ve been home for a couple days, slept a couple of 10-hour nights complete with afternoon naps to tack on a little extra, and I’m approaching productivity mode again. Thank goodness […]

Poached Eggs in Harissa Tomato Sauce

Poached Eggs in Tomato Sauce with Harissa | PDXfoodlove

Yet again I am posting about something I ate only an hour ago. I’m even on the same glass of wine. This is also because the wine was cold, and I’ve been waiting on it to come up to room temperature. I love it when the sun is out and I can shoot late into […]

Tomato Strawberry Bruschetta

Get ready for the easiest, springiest appetizer you’ve ever laid eyes on. This tomato strawberry bruschetta makes a lot of sense when you think about it. Good tomatoes are so delightfully sweet. Strawberry and basil go so well together. Why should all three not get together for a little party to welcome spring? Now, I […]

Homemade Mascarpone

I’ve been talking up my homemade mascarpone for over a week, teasing you all with a Strawberry and Mascarpone Tart, and this Grapefruit Arugula Toast. Well, the wait is over. I’m finally writing about the cheese itself! I can’t believe how easy this was, and how much better the homemade version tastes. Or how inexpensive […]

Kale & Celery Root Purée

Whooooo, where in the world did this week go? I feel like I’ve been saying that about a lot of weeks lately. But usually, it also means that Friday is nearby. This time I’m fresh off a very fun work trip to Seattle. Every time I’m up there I try to find new places, but […]
