Hi, I am Lyndi.  Nice to meet you!

I started the nwafoodie blog in 2009 for selfish reasons.  Since there were only little snippets of time in the week for me to run around and explore the food scene in Northwest Arkansas, I figured that if I had a way to share these backyard discoveries on a broader level, then hopefully you would share your discoveries with me.

The plan worked.

I write about eating and living well.  I am passionate about intoxicating food touch points such as ingredients, sources, gadgets, unique restaurant dishes, and the local food scene.  You will find that I like to keep things simple and uncomplicated.

You are my inspiration. 

I know you want to stand out from the crowd, to experiment and to learn new things.  I know you want to eat well and to live well.  See?  We already have a bond of mutual affection!

In addition to writing this blog, I am a shopper insightand influencer marketing professional and I passionately love it.  I dig through reams and reams of research to uncover the ah-has and stories that shoppers are begging for us to desperately know about them… and encourage them to share heir stories.  When it comes right down to it, whether it is my job or my blog, both focus on helping others.With a dash of storytelling thrown in.

How may I help you?

Drop me a line.

This I Believe.

I believe that a foodie loves both the simplicity and complexity of food and drink.

I believe that a foodie eats mindfully.

I believe that a foodie (ought to) give thanks for every bite.

I believe that a foodie respects food.

I believe that a foodie believes that we are what we eat – mentally, physically, emotionally, and even spiritually.

I believe that a foodie is not a gourmand or a food snob.

I believe that a foodie is curious to know how food is prepared, preserved, and planted.

I believe that a foodie is always on the lookout to learn, grow, share, and serve.

I believe that a foodie is enthralled with the 360 degree touch points of food.

I believe that a foodie loves to explore.

I believe in the power of giving.

I believe in not wasting life.

 

What do you believe?

Eat well, my friends. Eat well.

Warmly,

Lyndi

  • Ad. #ARSoyStory This month the Arkansas Soybean Promotion Boards’ Kitchen|Fields Table Tour highlights a bone-in pork chop with soybean succotash served at the Postmaster’s Grill restaurant in Camden, Arkansas. Unfortunately, I live five hours North of Camden and I don’t eat pork. Ha! But that’s not stopping me……….. and that doesn’t have to stop you! Inspired by the Postmaster’s Grill, I have created us a soybean succotash recipe with turkey ham, fresh corn-on-the-cobb, frozen organic soybeans and a hint of tomatoes. This dish is vibrant, delicious, and super easy to pull together. Recipe link in bio 👆🏻and in comments👇🏻.
  • The secret to a deliciously perfect oven-roasted chicken? Butter. Butter. Butter. Oh and a touch of butter! Baked this little girl yesterday and captured the essense of the drippings by making a insanely delightful jus with a secret ingredient. Coming soon to the blog! Stay tuned!
  • Ad. Breakfast of champions! Actually, more like breakfast-through-mid-morning of champions! 🙌🏻 (That’s a huge plate right there!) 🍅 drizzled with olive oil and @denigris1889usa balsamic vinegar of Modena with 35% concentrated grape must for the win! There was so much goodness on this plate that I decided to skip the eggs! What does YOUR breakfast of champions look like today?
  • No matter what, there are always staples I keep on hand when it comes to veggies. Mushrooms, zucchini, squash, cauliflower and romaine. Oh, and cute cherry tomatoes. Along with my pantry, fridge, and freezer staples, these vegetables make it so I am always prepared for a delicious and quick meal if someone drops by. What are your go-to veggie staples? Or, are you right now thinking, “What the heck is a veggie staple?!” 😂
  • #ad  Okay, raise of hands… Who is ready to order the Ricotta Cavatelli with soybeans, shiitake and Parmesan the next time you visit The Hive in Bentonville? Why not enjoy a delicious meal AND feel good about supporting Arkansas farmers at the same time? #ARSoyStory @arkansassoybeans 
Details in bio link 👆🏻and in comments 👇🏻
  • Afternoon vibes at @tablemesabistro in #Bentonville. I recommend you beat the crowds and order a light afternoon refresher such as avocado fries or a cup of their delicious chicken poblano soup. (Psst.... 3-4pm is the magic hour.) Who else is always looking for a quiet and private spot to get some work done? Where else is a good spot to hole up?

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
