But if you’re craving something a little sweeter, you’ve got to try these roasted carrots. Fresh minced garlic would work well here, but part…

Coconut Oil Chocolate Chip Cookies
Even when I think I’ve found the perfect chocolate chip cookie, I’m always looking for a fresh riff on the recipe. I’ve tried them with oats, molasses, cream cheese, bananas, straight-off-the-back-of-the-chip bag (and I mean every chip bag), all kinds of mix-ins, the 24-hour refrigeration method, even the latest smack-the-pan-before-baking technique. So, when I ran…

Air Fryer Chicken Tacos
I’ve recently become an Air Fryer addict.

Don’t Knock It ‘Til You Try It: Moon Dust Banana Bread
Lately, I’ve been feeling a little woo-woo. Not quite hunting-down-Bigfoot-while-wearing-tin-foil-hats, but more like, I’m into trying new things, no matter how bizarre they might seem. It’s good to be open minded, right? So, when a box of Moon Dust — the very stuff raved about on Gwyneth Paltrow’s lifestyle site, Goop — crossed my desk,…
