  • Guess what, everybody....... Sautéed radishes with sweet onions are a THING! Try it for yourself and see. My SIL cuts her radishes up so that they are slivers, resembling hash browns. Me? I like mine peeled, halved and thinly sliced. - - - Wondering how they TASTE? Nutty and full flavored. No bitterness. Of course, butter takes just about everything to the next level. Who’s in?
  • There are experts in the field of minimalism that tell us to pull the metaphorical Band-Aid off. To just attack our clutter with gusto and have everything that doesn’t matter to us go bye-bye. I really like that train of thought. In fact, I tell myself that is what I am doing and then lo and behold I find myself months later going back to the same pile and doing it again. It’s not that I have added anything to the pile. Rather, I find that what seemed like important to me at the time becomes less so the more I purge. Is purging perfectionism holding you back?

  • 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👇🏻.

  • 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?!” 😂

“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
