There are some things in life that seem too good to be true: Bananas that taste exactly like ice cream. Amazon Prime. The 3 for $1 buckets at Target. Or that week in college where something went wrong and we somehow got free cable. And now, add Pinch of Yum’s Creamy Cauliflower Sauce to the list. (I really think that I…
Share our Strength’s No Kid Hungry Campaign: How You Can Help
For years I’ve watched the campaigns for improving school lunches for children from afar. I saw Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution as he set forth to ensure all children have access to good and nutritious meals, stating that it was every child’s right. Along with her Let’s Move! campaign, Michelle Obama implemented new standards in public schools that mandated them to…
Chicken Bruschetta Pasta
After all these years, I’ve finally gotten my husband to watch The Bachelorette with me (don’t tell him I told you, ok?). I’m now 100% convinced that watching the show as a couple is the key to a successful marriage. …oh, and coffee. Coffee is the other key to a successful marriage. But, this show, you guys! It’s pure gold…
Salmon Cakes with Arugula Salad and Roasted Red Pepper Chipotle Sauce

Packed with fresh salmon and herbs and vegetables, these salmon cakes are combined with breadcrumbs, light mayo, Dijon mustard, and…

We’ve been doing everything we can to cool off this month. We try to run errands early in the morning or when the sun is setting. Fans and air conditioning have…
Oven Roasted Meatballs with Spicy Marinara
I am aware that it is 2016 and that I have only just now embraced the beauty and joy and genius that is YouTube. And then I got caught in what I’ve termed the “YouTube Sinkhole,” which is nearly impossible to leave. To be more specific, when I started this post, it was actually bright outside…and now everyone is asleep….
Pinch of Yum’s Lemon Chicken with Asparagus
Pinch of Yum is one my all-time favorite food blogs. It was created by Lindsay, a former elementary school teacher, who spent years jumping between teaching and food blogging before she became a full-time blogger. Her husband Bjork handles the tech support portion of the blog, and together they’ve just created a really cool space. Between her beautiful photography and…
