Parmigiano Reggiano grated in various sizes and its rinds

Parmigiano-Reggiano

Over time, Parmigiano-Reggiano became a staple in our fridge and on our plates. I use it for so many different things! Snack? Crisps, baked for a few minutes. Or thinly sliced with a piece of dark chocolate. Or with a slice of apple and a drizzle of balsamic. Salad ingredient? […]

White plate with peach, mozzarella, and pesto salad over arugula

Peach, Mozzarella, and Pesto Salad

This summer is shaping up to be my most active yet. As a result, I am usually hungry for something light, quick, and chilled. Today’s dinner was inspired by a side dish that I made a little while ago which consisted of peaches seared on the stovetop and topped with […]

Salad made of arugula, radish slices, goat cheese crumbles and sweet potato

Sweet Potato and Goat Cheese Salad

This sweet potato salad is probably one of my favorite dishes to eat. It’s beautiful, delicious, and filling. It is very forgiving in terms of substitutions (goat cheese for feta, pumpkin for sweet potato, spinach for arugula) but this combination is my favorite. If you want to “protein it up”, […]
