Roasted Balsamic Brussel Sprouts

Brussel sprouts are so underrated.  When they're roasted, and not old-fashioned boiled, they're absolutely amazing.  I've yet to find someone who's not a lover of brussel sprouts, deep down inside...when they're prepared right.

Stepping into Fall...Bring on the Boots!

Fall is such a great time of the year!  What's not to love about the cooler weather, the crisp evenings, and that brisk feel to the air.  Everyone bundles up a bit more, and heads to the fields for an autumn connection with nature.  Whether its the annual trip to the pumpkin fields, a festive hay-rack ride, or an afternoon of leaf raking, Fall is a time for a celebration of outdoor life.

Chili Cornbread Cups

I'm on the road quite often, visiting new cities and corners of the world.  One of my favorite activities on a trip to a new country, or even an unfamiliar part of the US, is to explore a local grocer.  As simple and uneventful as it sounds, the food people buy and the way they shop gives such great insight into a local culture!  Culinary exploration.

Hearty Vegetarian Chili

This delicious Fall chili is so hearty that nobody even notices that it is meatless!  Perfect for football season, crisp fall days, or a warm meal after a long afternoon of playing in the leaves.

French Farmhouse Soup

Farmhouse Soup is a classic French blended soup that is overflowing with clean-eating goodness and healthy nutrients.  It is a warm, cozy bowl of satisfying vegetables.
