Cranberry Orange Relish

November 9, 2017

With three ingredients and one step, it couldn't be easier. And the unexpected part? The entire orange goes in, including the peel. But with a touch of sugar, the sweetness balances any potential bitterness. It beats any store-bought cranberry sauce out there and will elevate your turkey.

These little peanut butter cup coconut bites remind me of a Snickers ice cream bar, minus all the corn syrup and hydrogenated soybean oil (gross). They come together in a snap, and they’ll be waiting for you the moment your sweet tooth strikes.

A typical pumpkin spice latte is loaded with sugar, syrups, and artificial flavorings. Just a grande pumpkin spice latte (with no whip) has 49 grams of sugar—that’s more sugar than THREE servings of ice cream.

Remember those preserved lemons I showed you how to make last week? I’ve been scheming fun new ways to use them—cocktails, appetizers, even desserts. But so far, one of my favorites has been this lemony pea pasta inspired by my friend Shane, the pasta king of San Francisco.

Preserving lemons extracts the lemon juice and softens the peel, which you can then cut into tiny pieces and use to flavor dishes just as you would salt.

I often drink very green smoothies (spinach, coconut milk, chia, flax, coconut meat, lemon juice, and a few blueberries) so this flavor combination was a really nice change.

Bread salad. It’s a thing. And if you’re feeling fancy, you can refer to it as panzanella. It’s an excellent way to use stale bread and a fast, satisfying contribution to an end-of-summer picnic.

There’s a lot to love about elotes, or Mexican street corn. Think grilled corn on the cob fancied up with lime juice, chile powder, and cotija cheese. But, this dish posed two problems for me. First, I don’t have a grill. Second, I really dislike one of the main ingredients: mayonnaise.
