I know what you’re thinking, or at least I think I know what you’re thinking. Fish sandwich? Yes, fish sandwich, yes. I saw a fish sandwich on a menu a long time ago, made it at home, and it was ridiculously good. So freakin good. It’s been a long time since I made it, and I have been working on some recipes using hummus for Sabra. It dawned on me one day, this recipe. Fish and hummus are eaten in the Mediterranean…

I love making bread at home and this whole wheat honey version is as simple to make as any homemade flatbread with a touch more flavor. You can easily double this recipe and store in the freezer for a couple of months too, which I love for busier times in life. I decided to make this a beautiful, herby, healthy and filling meal by adding thick Greek yogurt and roasted chickpeas for the whole meal win. I ate this for lunch and leftovers for a…

This Arroz Con Pollo is a super traditional Mexican dish made easily and quickly for a comforting weeknight or weekend meal. Add extra olives for a nice briny kick!

When I began the blog, working with the John Boos & Co was on the top of my list. So there is my bias, no big deal. I am just a happy…

I need salads like this to make my days so much easier. I often forget having already made salads in the fridge makes for an easy healthy choice when I take my break, check the fridge for lunch, and voila, a good choice. It’s also easy to make a protein for dinner to go with a salad like this which is already full of whole grains and vegetables, making a well rounded healthy meal. Last week before I left for Sacramento to visit my best…

Welcoming Spring time in the Pacific Northwest is somewhat of an event. We have had a long Winter, for here, and everyone is ready to head out in 50 degree weather as if it’s 70, sun shining, sandals and shorts on with farmers markets raging on opening weekend like a frat party is happening.
