What makes this salad better than just a salad for dinner is the fact that the base is roasted. Maybe that makes it more of a “warm bowl”? I don’t know. But it’s delish. I started with roasting the fennel since its pretty dense compared to the kale and shave brussels.
Read MoreA new salad obsession - this Maple Roasted Carrot Salad is something you could eat for lunch year round but also makes a totally perfect side dish to serve your family over the holidays… So delish! My health coach, Liz, came to the rescue when I was burnt out on my salad rotation and this is one of the recipes she highly suggested. It’s so dang good, I had to share about it on the blog!

Read MoreHappy September!! This is the day I personally deem acceptable to decorate for fall LOL. So I may have started the morning digging out my painted gingham pumpkins and working on a few more to add to the collection… 🤪🎃🍂 I felt a little ambitious with all the fall excitement and made my own take on Sweetgreen’s Harvest Warm Bowl for lunch. Check out my recipe for the similar [but different] salad I whipped up this afternoon, on the blog. I’ve decided to call it… “Sarah’s Harvest Salad!”
Read MoreQuick post tonight! We tried a recipe for Strawberry Slaw this evening and LOVED it! Glad we have leftovers because I’m excited to eat it again tomorrow as part of my lunch!! I love finding cooler side dishes for summer nights and this one is perfect! It’s relatively quick (especially with a few shortcuts) and requires simple ingredients.
Read MoreWe are loving the balcony life!! It is so nice to have a little area of our own to enjoy the outdoors. That’s one thing we wished we had in NYC and it was a definite perk in picking this apartment. Darrell picked up dinner from a local eatery, Southern Salads and Sandwich Company. This was our first time checking out their restaurant and one that I think we will definitely order from again soon!
Read MoreSalads! A long lost friend since coronavirus began. Generally speaking, I’m not a fan of making salads at home because I feel like it doesn’t matter what I do, they do not taste restaurant-quality and the dressings in particular seem to require a ton of ingredients that I don’t keep on hand.

Anyone else feel my pain in this department?? All of that to say, I was pleasantly surprised to LOVE this salad!! So much so, I had a bowl of it again today.
Read MoreWhile temps haven’t been quite as warm here in NYC as they seem to be for our family and friends back in KY, we have still been looking for ways to cook “cooler” sides for our meals as we inch toward summer.
