Bread baking time! It's 88 degrees outside but in my mind it's time for all the fall vibes. (I used the New York Times No-Knead recipe which pretty much never fails). #breadmaking #bakinglove

This recipe for Mango and Tomato Fresh Salsa is an oldie. I think it's actually one of the first recipes I ever posted to my blog. And though it may be an old recipe, it's still a summertime favorite for me. I really only ever make it in the summer when my garden heirloom tomatoes are ripe and when I can grill some fish or meat to go along with it. It's so juicy and fresh - perfect for a hot summer day. You can find the recipe on the blog. #gardentotable

Another simple summer lunch. I just can't work up

Another simple summer lunch. I just can't work up an appetite for a big lunch in the heat of the summer. So today it's cottage cheese, cucumbers and tomatoes from the garden, and a side of roasted garlic sauerkraut. What are y'all having for lunch today? #lunchtime #foodlove

Today's lunch: a healthy black bean salad with bla

Today's lunch: a healthy black bean salad with black beans, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and grilled corn kernels and then topped with with leftover guacamole and avocado ranch dressing, lime juice, and smoked paprika. To accompany it I cut up some naan and toasted it for a few minutes in the oven. The beauty of this meal is that I whipped it up from odds and ends I had floating about in the fridge because I try to avoid as much food waste as I can. It was delicious and it just goes to show that you can make good food with scraps. It's good for the planet and the wallet. #frugalliving #homemadefood
