Stone fruit and corn quinoa salad

I never know what to title these big salads that have 10 different ingredients, all as equally as important in their presence.  Oh well!

Stone Fruit and Corn Quinoa Salad Ingredients: 3 nectarines 3 ears of sweet corn 2 cups quinoa (cooked to yield ~4 cups quinoa) 1 bag slaw mix (or 1 cabbage, shredded + 4 carrots, shredded) 1… Read more >

Ranch Scramble Slaw Bowl

Japan!

We went to Japan and it was amazing. If you’ve ever been considering it, it’s a must! The culture is kind and safe and respectful and clean and just so so so wonderful! I saved all my IG stories into highlights in case you want the play by play of Tokyo to Hamamatsu to Kyoto to Osaka. We saw tons of beautiful temples and torii. Tried new pastries (with some favorites getting a repeat) every morning. Got exercise walking 10-15 miles a day (and biking!). Enjoyed tons of family time. Saw alllll the cherry blossoms…. Read more >
