Wanna know what I dig most about end-of-summer grubbing? Helloooo, O U T S I D E O N C E A G A I N. The humidity has mostly vanished, the temperatures are crisping up, and picnics don’t sound so terrible and dreadful and disgusting and stabby and horrible and awful anymore. Yay! I […]

Tuscan Chicken Kale Salad
I’ve been dying to show you this recipe FOR LAHK, MONTHS. I make it almost every Monday night. Remember how I was in a habit of making Chicken Caesars every Monday night? We still do that from time to time, but I’ve been making THIS nutso Tuscan version for the better part of the summer […]
Raw Beet and Tomato Salad (Working with Harvesters!)
I will not open with a beet pun. I will not open with a beet pun. I will not open with a beet pun. Look at those beets! Just look at ’em! I grew them. I grew the beets. I’ve been noodling around with gardening for about 13 years now, yet I’m still amazed that […]
Israeli Couscous Salad with Asparagus and Bacon
Beautiful. Bright. Glorious. But now let’s talk about this salad. This mess is straight up (now tell me) out of control. First of all, look at that color! Don’t you want to punch it in the shin? I don’t eat enough Israeli couscous. Truthfully, I kind of forgot about it, until I spotted it in […]
Shrimp Po’ Boy Panzanella
Also known as, salad night just got awesome. Do you salad night? I say it like it’s a verb. But it is. Salad night. It’s an action! We salad night once or twice a week, normally on Monday nights. I’ve been trying to jazz it up lately (don’t tell anyone I just said jazz it […]

Blackened Chicken Caesar Salads with Avocado
Ask, and you shall receive. Did I tell you we make a version of this EVERYSINGLEMONDAY? We make a version of this everysinglemonday. Sometimes Aaron coats the chicken with mustard and panko and bakes it. Sometimes we simply throw a little salt and pepper on ’em and pop ’em on the grill. And sometimes, we […]
Thai Cashew Chicken Salad
Is it too early in the week for a salad? What if it has cashews in it? And the dressing has cashew butter in it? Still too early? I’d been on the phone with my sister the other day after a birthday lunch date she had with my mom. “What did you eat?” I demand. […]
Kale Caesar Salad with Grilled Chicken
Thiiiiiiiiiiis. I’m almost speechless. I said almost, don’t get too giddy. This kale caesar salad is straight up madness. First of all, it’s kale. Dark, earthy Tuscan kale, sliced into the tiniest ribbons and fist bumped for good measure. Then we have brioche croutons. An idea that comes from a Saturday morning PBS/Martha-thon. Then we […]
Curried Chicken and Lentil Pita Pockets
You’ve gotta pick a (pita) pocket or twoooo. If you get that reference we were meant to be together. Just don’t tell Aaron. Pita pockets! With like, this super light curried chicken salad and lentil mixture. And grapes, and chopped almonds, and lotsa herbies. But you don’t have to say herbies if you don’t want. […]
