How to Make Beet-Dyed deviled eggs with recipe for mustard ranch deviled eggs

I’ve never needed an excuse to get friends together for a celebration. Especially with blogging, I’m always wrangling girlfriends together for some hair-brained scheme, whether I need hand models or people to pose in front of a photo booth.

A while ago I hosted a confetti party. There were two reasons for the party – one, I finished a rough stretch at work with mostly night shifts, meaning I had basically dropped off the planet. I wanted to get everyone together to reconnect over drinks and snacks. Plus, I needed a party spread to highlight the balloon party centerpiece DIY I was working on for Martha Stewart. Why go to all of the trouble of making the decorations, recipes, and libations for a photoshoot if you can’t have people around to share them?… Read More »

Roasted Delicata Squash – Easy Holiday Side Dish

Egg FreeVegetarian

This roasted delicata squash recipe is the perfect easy holiday side dish. It’s packed with flavor from cayenne, pomegranates, Real California Queso Fresco and lime crema.Easy Holiday Side Dish - Roasted Delicata Squash Recipe

Roasted Delicata Squash

Can I just say I’ve been loving delicata squash in a big way this year?

It’s truly the unsung hero of squashes. This beautiful little vegetable doesn’t need to be peeled.

I think the last time I tried to peel a butternut squash I actually got blisters, so this is beyond huge. It’s packed with flavor, but doesn’t overpower a dish. Instead it serves as a ready canvas for the amazing ingredients in this recipe, including pomegranates, Queso Fresco and a lime yogurt crema. Add in a pinch of spices and your mouth is truly in for a treat.

A recipe for oven baked sweet potatoes that are healthy and vegan! They are under 200 calories per serving, lightly sweet and taste freakin’ delicious! 

Healthy Roasted Oven Baked Sweet Potatoes RecipeI looooove having sweet potatoes around! All winter long I have a bowl of sweet potatoes on hand at all times so I can throw them in pretty much everything we make. They keep in our kitchen for weeks after we buy them – it’s so easy. Be it tacos, minestrone, or egg scramble, chances are there are sweet potatoes involved. They are just so convenient.

Just as they are an essential part of our winter diet, sweet potatoes are an expected side dish at our Thanksgiving and Christmas meals. … Read More »
