Cranberry Ginger Brussels Sprouts with Pancetta

Cranberry Ginger Brussels Sprouts with Pancetta

You know I love a side dish that comes together fast. And while this one just misses my "5 minute side" designation, it's not far from at only 10 minutes and a whole bunch of delicious. Very "holiday" feeling, and easy peasy. White Baking Dish | Copper Candlesticks | Fluted Taper Candles Four ingredients, seasoned […]

Panzanella Potato Salad - Grain & Dairy Free

I took an International Foods course in college where each week we would make a big feast of foods from a different region of the world. It was the biggest face-roll course I've ever taken (ie, could not have been easier and more enjoyable) and many of the dishes I learned to make are still […]

Cheese-less Potato Casserole - Grain & Dairy Free

Growing up in the Utah/Idaho corridor, "funeral potatoes" have been commonplace my entire life. Of course once people realized it was a bit of a dark name for such an amazing dish, many started calling it "cheesy potato casserole" instead. Whatever you call the dish, goodness sakes its hard to beat. Ruffled Baking Dish | […]

Meaning, I wouldn't necessarily suggest ladling a scoop of marinara over top with some Italian meatballs. But for the joy of eating a noodle, and an openness to try something new, this ingredients will quickly become a pantry […]

Dairy & Grain-Free Creamy Mashed Potatoes & Gravy | Chris Cooks

Growing up eating mashed potatoes, I didn't really know what I was eating - just that I loved it. Once food restrictions enter the picture, it's kind of mind blowing just how much butter and cream go into making a classic, creamy mashed potato. Add gravy, and you're almost always talking about some kind of […]

Stir-fry Shaved Asparagus | Chris Cooks

I've been trying to get creative with how I cook my vegetables, so that I want to eat more vegetables. Hence the shaved asparagus! Not everyone is a fan of asparagus, but if you haven't tried them in this noodle-like form you might really like them! I prepared them with some of my favorite asian-inspired […]

Braised Brussels Sprouts - Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Grain Free

Brussels Sprouts are having a major moment right now, and it makes a lot of sense. They're a robust, nutrient-dense green and are in season pretty much all winter. But even still, they can turn up noses at times due to their natural bitterness. There are a few tricks to cutting down on the bitterness […]
