Bring Home the Bacon Chex Mix
What snack is made of cereal, requires no milk, and is the most addictive thing you’ll eat this week? That’s right… Bacon Chex Mix! Not that normal Chex mix isn’t good and addictive, but a little bacon couldn’t hurt, right? The first step in making this delicious snack mix is making sure you have some very crispy bacon. To make mine, I lay it out on a baking rack over a baking sheet and sprinkle it with some fresh crushed black p... Read More ›

Summer Herb Chex Mix
Things I Love About Summer: The sunshine. Duh. Ice cream. Popsicles. Poolside lounging. Skorts. Cookouts. Just kidding about #5. But not about #6. And this Summer Herb Chex Mix is the perfect accompaniment to #6 (and #4, too. And really, any time in the summer). Why? Because it’s made with summery herbs and other goodies, and it makes any occasion a party. That’s why we call it a party mix, yo. So let’s do this thang... Read More ›

Oven Beef Jerky

Oven Beef Jerky
People were making jerky before fancy equipment like dehydrators existed. Like thousands of years before dehydrators existed. Drying meat has been around forever as a way to store meat. It also just happens to be really delicious! The dehydrating industry probably doesn’t want you do know this, but you need only three things to make really top-notch jerky: 1) Time 2) Mild heat 3) A fairly dry environment. Luckily, the last two can be pro... Read More ›

Polenta Bruschetta with Shrimp and Spinach Pesto
You didn't think snack time could be so bedazzled like this, did you? Snack time. You open a bag of chips. You spread some cheese on crackers. You stick a spoonful of peanut butter into your mouth. You pour a glass of wine. What? IT CAN BE A SNACK. But let's take snack time to a new level. Let's up our own ante. Let's up it to the point where all the antes are high fiving, fist bumping and most definitely doing the twist and shout in pink gli... Read More ›

How to Cook Sorghum
What's sorghum you ask? Delicious and versatile! As Americans become more educated on the importance of eating whole grains and cutting back on red meat, the popularity of protein-rich grains appears to be on the rise. Case in point: sorghum. Okay, okay, so maybe you're not exactly finding the stuff all over trendy restaurant menus – but maybe you should be, because the nutty grain tastes great, packs in tons of filling protein and can be p...

Roasted Chickpeas
I don’t know about you, but when I’m trying to maintain a healthy diet (hello, fast-approaching swimsuit weather!), my biggest threat is snack time. Tell me you’ve been there – you’ve got about an hour or two before dinner and you need just a little something to tide you over. You look around… and you have two choices, like fruit and potato chips. Nine times out of 10, my greedy little hands will go for those potato chips. MUST EAT S... Read More ›

Cherry, Maple and Walnut Granola
I have this theory. If I was a superhero (ahem, superheroine), my Kryptonite would be homemade granola. I’d be able to climb tall buildings, travel for miles in a single bound and save cats stranded in trees with no more effort than it takes to lift a pinky finger – but one whiff of granola and I’m a goner. So you can only imagine how hard it was for me to make this homemade Cherry, Maple & Walnut Granola and force myself to not... Read More ›

Holiday Sriracha Chex Mix

Holiday Sriracha Chex Mix
Until I realized you don’t have to follow the recipe, I was never really the biggest fan of Chex mix. Once I started to experiment a bit and put some different flavors and ingredients into the mix, I started to like it a lot more. And that’s how I came up with a sriracha-based Chex Mix with soy sauce, fresh ginger and garlic, and some chow mein noodles and wasabi peas mixed right in. It’s a truly addictive version of the classic! Wa... Read More ›
