The good news is that it’s tasty. Like, go ahead and lick the side of the glass tasty. I’ll be honest here. I am eating my words from a previous post stating that I was bidding farewell to the flavors of fall. That phase didn’t last. Thankfully. Also – a brief word to the wise on the crumbs here. Don’t over-toast them. In my imagination, I know instinctively when to take something out of the oven....
comment icon 148 more comments Okay, fine, eight words: roasted tomatillos, garlic, and jalapeños made into sauce. It’s YAHHHMMMMY. Roasted tomatillo chicken enchilada casserole is where it’s at. I’ve always loved a) casseroles – yahh shoore yoobetcha (Minnesota will do that to a girl), and b) chicken enchilada anything, so this little number is right up my food alley. I first got the idea for this — wait, you already know, don’t you?...

SAAAAGE! ♡ In a few days, it’s going to be September. Say wha? This is both NOT OKAY and also the best thing ever because fall is amazing and I love it. But we’ve still got time before September hits and I’m taking full advantage of it by sneaking in an update on what Sage has been doing in August slash summer. Woot! August was a big month for Sage....
It’s June, school’s out, we’re all wearing flip flips, and Sage is in fine form, if you can’t tell from that clownish smile on her face. Her big smile only comes out a few times each year (it has a direct correlation with the increasing heat and frequency of trips to the dog park) so we are just soaking it up with our happy girl. You guys, I had recipes planned, but last week I got majorly sick....
Easy Carmelita Pecan Bars I took one of the top five recipes in the history of my blog, my recipe for Carmelitas, and dare I say I made it even better?Salted caramel and candied pecans make everything better. If you’ve never tried carmelitas before, they’re one of the most heavenly, decadent desserts that will ever pass your lips. Make these now, not in January when it’s resolution time. Biting through the layers of the chewy oatmeal crust, the chocolate chips, the crunchy pecans, the salty-and-sweet caramel sauce that’s gooey and wonderful, and the crisp topping is pure heaven....
Because the weather had been cooling off, I have been on a soup and chili making kick. (Speaking of things to do, does anyone need an end table? CSNstores.com have got you covered if you do). With the soups and chili making kick I’ve been on, sometimes I make them in my Crock Pot, and sometimes I just make them on the stovetop. I never buy ingredients especially for whatever soup or chili I am going to make; I just use up what I have around....
comment icon 27 more comments This chili is rich and hearty, simple and uncluttered. No beans, no veggie chunks – just saucy chunks of juicy, tender beef that shreds apart with the lightest pull of a fork. My friend Ang made this recipe for us years ago, and we’ve always laughed about this recipe that she used because the 2010 Food Network original that she was working from has a full 3/4 cup of chili powder in it....

This mango crumble bar recipe is an easy, one bowl, no mixer recipe that takes just minutes to make. The crust and oatmeal crumble topping are one and the same. I love recipes like this so there’s one less step and one less bowl to wash! The mango bars aren’t overly sweet and get lots of their sweetness from the natural sweetness of the mangos and mango flavor comes through in every bite....
What we have going on here is delicious spice-loaded shrimp tucked in between smashed avocado and a cabbage slaw that is heavy with a homemade creamy lime sauce. Question: topped with crumbly, salty Cotija cheese, and wrapped in a corn tortilla with a wedge of lime squeezed over the top? Answer: Yes. comment icon 761 more comments More cilantro. More lime. More avocado and spicy shrimp. The world just seems so right....

Shocking but true. I love chocolate and cookies as much as the next person, or in my case, probably more than the next person, but I have to have green vegetables every day. Without them I feel weird. off, out of balance, and although I crave brownies, I also crave broccoli and Brussels’s sprouts. Yes, really. I love cruciferous vegetables of all kinds, but broccoli and Brussels’s are two of my favorites....
But today I had real fruit for breakfast, and I love love loved it. Maybe because it was wrapped up in a soft, golden crepe type thing… And it had fresh strawberry sauce and cream on top. (Does it still count for cream if it was just flavored coffee creamer? I’ll go ahead and say yes.) In typical Lindsay fashion, the idea for these did not come until I started making what I thought would be Swedish Pancakes....
This should be a hint to myself that it is not a good idea to grocery shop while hungry. Yet somehow, I recently found myself browsing the aisles at Cub Foods with a growling stomach, after a long day of work. This scenario signals trouble for me and good news for Cub Foods. My typical “hungry shopper” food of choice is salty, crunchy chips. I don’t ever eat my impulse-buy chips while shopping; I do have standards....
Because I’ve never made a lava flow smoothie but I’m hooked now. Fast, easy, healthy, refreshing, and tastes wonderful. It’s so creamy and tropical-tasting and perfect for this weather. Oh and it looks cool which counts for something, right. The light portion is pineapple and banana blended with Silk Unsweetened Cashewmilk. It’s so irresistibly creamy and thick but with fewer calories than skim milk. Eating more plant-based protein is a great goal and Silk Cashewmilk or Silk Almond Milk are my milks of choice for baking and smoothies....

It’s been almost one month, and time has softened the grief only to unleash a storm of questions. I try to sit with them, to work through them, but the most cruel one lingers: why couldn’t my body hold onto my baby? A few nights ago, I couldn’t sleep. I laid on the couch by myself, in the dark except for a box of Kleenex, and I thought back to seeing Afton for the last time on the ultrasound just before he was born....
