Saucy Butter Beans

May 14, 2024 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

featured

According to what I’ve been seeing on social media lately, butter beans are having a moment. People are cooking them in rich, creamy sauces and serving them with crusty bread for an easy and nutritious meal. It turns out that this is the type of meal I crave when Picky Husband isn’t going to be having dinner with us — a comforting, satisfying dish that comes together quickly. …

Lemon Harissa Cabbage Soup

February 7, 2023 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

featured

As I’ve aged, I’ve decided that I find bland food offensive. I compulsively purchase exotic spice blends and add them to everything, am unsatisfied with restaurants that lean on salt as their key seasoning, and I find myself enamored by new brands of hot sauce. As a result, the food that I cook at home contains layers of flavors and a little heat — hence my newest recipe, Lemon Harissa Cabbage Soup. …

Creamy Roasted Garlic Anti-cancer Soup

December 7, 2020 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

featured

As someone who is constantly thinking about nutrition and healthy eating, I find that there are times in life when eating well is more challenging. The holiday season and during pregnancy are both times when it’s easy to slide into eating for comfort rather than health. Leading up to Thanksgiving, I decided to make a soup that’s packed with phytonutrients (which happen to fight cancer) and flavor. Just look at the ingredient list, and you’ll know this Roasted Garlic Anti-cancer Soup is going to give you a healthy dose of nutrition!…

How to Improve Your Mornings with Overnight Oats

May 16, 2018 by maryrossfowler 2 Comments

overnight oats

I know, I know, overnight oats have been a thing for quite a while now. And yet, I’m just now jumping aboard the overnight oats train because, well, I’m SO TIRED OF OATMEAL. There, I said it. When I do eat it, it’s because I know it’s good for me, not because I legitimately enjoy eating a bowl of warm mush. But I’ve found that I actually look forward to eating my overnight oats because they’re already prepared when I wake up, I try lots of fun flavors, and it’s like eating dessert for breakfast every morning! …

Thai Spaghetti Squash Stir-“fry”

July 20, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

Thai spaghetti squash

It seems like once a week I realize I don’t know what to cook for dinner and I don’t feel like going to the grocery store. For this reason, I always try to keep a spaghetti squash on hand. I cook mine in the microwave, so it’s super easy to prepare, my whole family likes it, and it’s light and nutritious. When my fridge is really bare, I serve it like spaghetti — with marinara and some type of protein. But to make things more interesting, I prefer to use up as many veggies in the fridge as I can. The solution? This Thai Spaghetti Squash Stir-“fry!” …

Maple Mustard Brussels Sprouts

It’s finally time for Part III of my three-part series of roasted Brussels sprouts recipes, and I’ve saved the best for last! I personally love the “Cheesy” Roasted Brussels Sprouts and the Ethiopian Brussels Sprouts, but these Maple Mustard Brussels Sprouts are a family favorite. They’re slightly sweet, tangy, and savory — perfect for a nutritious snack or a side dish! If you try this recipe and still don’t like Brussels sprouts, I doubt you’ll ever like them. Sorry….

Ethiopian Roasted Brussels Sprouts

June 8, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

Ethiopian Roasted Brussels Sprouts

These bright and flavorful Ethiopian Roasted Brussels Sprouts are my second roasted Brussels sprouts post in my series of 3. The first post was for “Cheesy Roasted Brussels Sprouts,” which are great for kids and people who enjoy savory, non-spicy foods. But these Ethiopian roasted sprouts are perfect for people like me who like lots of flavor with a little kick. And since I’m always finding new ways to add turmeric to my diet for its anti-inflammatory properties, I added some of that too! …

“Cheesy” Roasted Brussels Sprouts

June 2, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

cheesy roasted brussels

For some reason I’ve been on a huge roasted Brussels sprouts kick lately, so this post is really Part 1 of 3 roasted sprouts recipes (woohoo!). Now don’t get me wrong — plain roasted Brussels sprouts are great, but it’s fun to change things up every now and then. This first recipe turned out beautifully, which resulted in my eating a pound of sprouts while standing over the baking pan. Seriously, these Cheesy Roasted Brussels Sprouts are addictive! …

Simple Chopped Salad with Lemon

February 21, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

chopped salad

Last week I made a spicy Indian dish and really needed a light side salad to balance the warmth and heaviness of my vegetable korma. Inspired by the salads I often see on Indian buffets, I decided to create this simple chopped salad, filled with fresh, crispy vegetables and dressed with a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of salt and black pepper….
