Creamy Beet Hummus with Seedy Oat Crunch
Besides its special pink color – thanks to a tiny bit of roasted beets, not enough to taste them :), this hummus is topped with a savory, 5 minute skillet granola that has 3 different kinds of seeds, oats, and dried tart cherries. A vibrant appetizer that is such a fun twist on regular hummus!

Soft & Fresh Sourdough Focaccia Bread (beginner level)
After starting my sourdough baking journey and feeling mostly confident in the vitality of my starter plus the resulting breads, it was time to experiment beyond the standard loaf. First it was bagels, then english muffins, and the latest – sourdough focaccia. Puffy and fluffy. Bubbly holes throughout. And a golden brown exterior that rose through the dimples left behind by pressing fingers into the dough, just before baking.

Welcome to the Family, Bleu! From Foster to Forever.
This is the story of Bleu, the most special foster cat we’ve ever had, that I just couldn’t let go of.

Included in this post is a video of how she’s come to be part of our family.

Homemade Whole Wheat Sourdough Bread
Another sourdough post, this time about my experience milling flour at home. Where fresh milled flour really shines is in flavor. The complexity and nuances of each grain comes through, deeply rich and nutty. I’ve baked with both fresh milled hard red winter wheat, and spelt, and loved each. The crust, crackly, and shinier! The crumb is so so tender, softer than an everyday kind of loaf.

Top 5 Sourdough Starter Feeding Tips for Beginners + FAQ’s!
Although I felt like I “studied” hard before baking my first loaf, there were things I wish I would have known before starting. I’m writing this post today to share the top 5 sourdough starter tips, answer the most common questions I’ve received, and hopefully squash your fears of sourdough baking. Because I firmly believe that anyone can do it! You don’t need to have years of baking experience, nor understand scientific terms. You don’t need an abundance of cooking tools or a special oven. All you need is flour, water, and salt…. they do all the work for you. Isn’t that crazy?

Crispy, Oven-Baked Falafel Salad Recipe
I’ve been searching for a good baked falafel recipe for what feels like forever. None of them have ever been good enough to make twice. Whether they required too much planning, were too crumbly and dry, or completely flavorless…. I had given up on making them at home.
But this recipe that comes from the just released Minimalist Kitchen book, by The Faux Martha (which I’m giving away a copy!) erases all of the bad ones. So so good! I made the baked falafel into a salad, that I’m sharing with you today.

Roasted Parmesan Asparagus with Bacon
I picked this asparagus recipe from a new cookbook on my shelf, The Pretty Dish, to share with you since spring is finally here (even though we’re getting snow today in Minnesota 😐), and Easter is this Sunday. As Jessica says, “Asparagus is one of the few veggies I can take to a gathering and know that it will be eaten with gusto.”
And eaten with gusto it was, in this house. Brian and I ate every single spear straight off the pan. Here’s the winning combination:
smoky salty bacon
the umami of Parmesan
and the golden child of spring — asparagus!

Walnut Avocado Yum Sauce
Sauces can take a roasted vegetable and turn it into the best thing you’ve ever eaten, transform grain bowls from a boring meal into a resounding “I’m going to start meal prepping” attitude, and elevate a plain chicken breast to something you want to serve at the next holiday dinner. They’re that magical element that we often overlook, yet are rewarded time and again when we make. Which is exactly why you need this incredible Walnut Avocado Yum Sauce in your life!
