…à la Shawn I’ve tried a few kale salads in my life, but none quite as good as my Dad’s. He likes to cook (and eat) just as much as I do, and many of the recipes I make are adaptions of things he cooked growing up. His kale salad may be his most proudestContinue reading “Kale Salad”

Chickpea Tahini Cookies
Free from: milk, eggs, soy, nuts, and gluten Okay, I have to be honest, I got this recipe from my sister.

My family went on a hiking trip last month, and IContinue reading “Chickpea Tahini Cookies”
Overnight Oats
Free of dairy, peanuts, treenuts, soy, and coconut I was skeptical of overnight oatmeal as it was becoming more popular!

Lately though, it’s been warmer out and so having something refreshing in the morning, ready-to-go has beenContinue reading “Overnight Oats”
Crispy Apple Chips
It’s been awhile since I have posted! Finals season really had me occupied, but even if I wasn’t posting, I was still busy cooking. A few months ago, my Nana sent me an email with recipe she had saved for apple chips. She said they were delicious and I had to try them, with justContinue reading “Crispy Apple Chips”
Nana’s Chicken
Free of dairy, peanuts, treenuts, soy, coconut, eggs, and gluten This recipe is a tribute to my Nana, who somehow manages to make the simplest of meals taste unbelievable.

Chocolate Protein Spread
Free of dairy, peanuts, treenuts, soy, eggs, and gluten Okay, I want to talk about post-workout recovery food. I’m a runner and for a while I would come back from an 8 to 10 mile run and replenish with a salad that had some chicken on it. Not only was that mean to myself emotionallyContinue reading “Chocolate Protein Spread”
Poached Salmon With Roasted Asparagus
Free of dairy, peanuts, treenuts, soy, avocado, gluten, and eggs This meal is for sure one of my favorites. My dad would make this for dinner every now and then, and I definitely took it for-granted while living at home. Once I went to college, I realized how much I miss salmon and the stapleContinue reading “Poached Salmon With Roasted Asparagus”
