Elegant, delicious, nourishing

A sophisticated, yet simple take on cooking with whole foods.

Creamy Mushroom Miso Soup with Gomasio + Toasted Sesame Oil + Scallions

This dream team of mushrooms, miso, and sesame seeds is so comforting in the fall and wintertime. Miso and mushrooms both have medicinal properties, and this soup is just as nourishing as it is flavorful.

Wild Rice Salad with Snap Peas + Avocado + Radish + Sesame Ginger Dressing

I like to add rice to my salad-it gives it great texture and makes a salad feel like a full meal. I am even more inclined to throw in some rice when I have leftovers from the night before.

Lentil + Tomato + Olive Baked Cod with Lemon Caper Vinaigrette

It is always great to have a couple of impressive dinner dishes that you can throw together for a party or to feed a crowd without having to do a lot of dishes. This baked fish recipe is perfect for an impromptu gathering.

Kale + Olive Pesto, Tomato + Shallot + Garlic Confit, Arugula + Walnut Pesto

I am a big believer that condiments are the secret weapon for throwing together a delicious meal in no time and making it feel like something special.

Thai Peanut Sweet Potato Skins

These unique potato skins are perfect nibbles to bring to a party or a potluck. It turns out that peanut sauce pairs beautifully with sweet potatoes, and with the addition of nuts, basil, and scallions as toppings, these are crazy delicious.

Miso Oats with Scallions + Sesame Oil

I often rely on oatmeal for a quick breakfast, and adding miso and scallions is a simple way to switch up my routine when I am in the mood for savory, umami flavors in the morning.

Roasted Eggplant Salad with Rice Noodles + Green Herb Tahini

Rice noodles always feel like such a treat, but when you coat them with this herbaceous, tangy tahini, all of the ingredients really come alive.

Strawberry Hazelnut Fudge Pops

Homemade is always better, especially in the case of ice pops-you can get super-creative with the flavors and make a big batch to keep around for snacking. Strawberries, hazelnuts, and chocolate are a dreamy combination of flavors.

Almond + Rosemary + Olive Oil Cake with Figs

You might want to serve this cake at a fancy tea with friends, but it’s so simple to make that I sometimes just bake it for myself to enjoy as a snack all week long.
