Vegan Butternut Squash and Cashew Salad
This Vegan Butternut Squash and Cashew Salad is super simple, yet hearty and delicious. Which sorta covers the necessities when it comes to a salad.
Simple + Hearty + Delicious
I mean, no one wants to spend a lengthy amount of time on a salad. BUT, we do want them to be filling and tasty, right?…
Easy Chickpea Pasta Primavera + Gluten-Free
This Easy Chickpea Pasta Primavera is full of Summer’s best veggies. Whether you prefer it cold as a side salad, or warm for the main meal, it’s sure to deliver in both flavor and nutrition!
This recipe has been a long time favorite of mine…
Roasted Broccoli Blue Cheese and Bacon Chopped Salad
We recently joined some friends of ours to see Gregory Alan Isakov perform live at the Ryman. I wasn’t familiar with him before the show, but his indie-rock-folk style is definitely a genre I like and it turned out to be a really great show…
Detox Cauliflower Brussels Sprouts Salad
This Detox Cauliflower Brussels Sprouts Salad with Roasted Chickpeas is full of great flavor, a lot of crunch, and best of all it’s loaded with protein, fiber, and healthy fats! I’ve been eating on it the last several days and can’t seem to get enough!…
Kale Salad with Roasted Delicata Squash and Pearl Barley
Truth be told, I’m more of a spinach-kinda-girl than a kale-kinda-girl. I know kale is a superfood and what-not, but I find I just tend to gravitate to spinach… And I’m not entirely sure why. I think I’m just a habitual person. Every week I grab a 16 oz tub of organic spinach and another one that’s a spinach blend of some sort…
Goat Cheese Salad with Maple Poppyseed Dressing
Is it completely cliche that my first post after the New Year is a salad? It is, isn’t it?
What can I say, I’ve always been a bit predicable… And while I certainly can’t say I’ve eaten 100% clean since the start of the New Year, I’m determined to get back on track…
Purple Cabbage and Split Pea Power Bowl
This Purple Cabbage and Split Pea Power Bowl is not only full of color, but loaded with flavor and nutrition!
While I love to focus on clean eating here on Lemons and Basil, please know that my way of eating is by no means perfect, nor am I overly strict with my own daily eating habits….
Delicata Squash & Barley Kale Salad + A Very Special Thank You
With the holidays come so many wonderful things – time with loved ones, traditions, festivities, reflection, giving, and food, just to name a few. And when it comes to the food, there is SO. MUCH. FOOD…
Roasted Sweet Potato and Brussels Sprout Salad
Happy Day-After-Thanksgiving! I’m guessing you’re either still sleeping off a food coma, bustling about in prep for another celebration with Family and Friends, shopping all those black Friday sales {in stores or online}, OR putting up your Christmas decorations!..
Summer Squash and Farro Veggie Bowl
You may not have realized I’ve been a bit MIA, but I HAVE and I’ve missed you! For the first time since I started blogging a year ago, I not only didn’t post twice last week, I didn’t even post once! The decision didn’t come easy, but the time simply wasn’t there. The realization finally set in that I can’t do everything I want to do, and that’s okay. I have to prioritize and make choices. Part of being an adult, right?!…
Berry and Pecan Spring Mix Salad with Vinaigrette
Happy Memorial Day! I thought I’d be a little patriotic and share this Berry and Pecan Spring Mix Salad loaded with blueberries, raspberries and topped with a bit of goat cheese. Nothing like adding a little red, white and blue to our plates, to help remind us what this day is all about and the gift so many have given us in fighting for our country and our freedom. To those of you serving in our Armed Forces, or have loved ones who serve or have served, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your selflessness, bravery, and sacrifice!…
Blueberry Pecan Balsamic Vinaigrette
This Blueberry Pecan Balsamic Vinaigrette is another quick, simple recipe. After the overwhelming response I received to these Southwest Sweet Potato Lettuce Wraps, in light of my initial hesitations and concerns that it wasn’t “good enough”, I now humbly realize that people like simple. Especially when simple can also be healthy!…
Balsamic Almond and Turmeric Salad Dressing
This doesn’t look much like a Fudgy Flourless Red Chili Chocolate Muffin, does it? Because that’s the recipe I was planning on sharing with you. However, some times things don’t go as planned.
After church this afternoon I began preparing a recipe, what I’m calling, a Green Powerhouse Salad with Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Sweet Potato. Although now that I see how long that is, I may have to revise it a bit before posting the recipe…
