    Butternut Squash Soup with Apple and Smoked Cheddar

    Unless you have an extremely brown thumb, squash is typically one of the easiest vegetables to grow in the south. Whether you have it in abundance in your garden or if you simply see it at your local farmers market (hint hint - come see us), you might be wondering how to prepare this fall favorite. One of my favorites is an absolutely “souper” recipe (yes, I did that. Give me a break; I live by my dad jokes.). Active Time 35 MIN Total Time 1 HR 25 MIN Yield Serves : 4 Ingredi

    One Pot Cheesy Bratwurst Fajita Skillet

    If you’re like me you have limited time to cook. Between shuttling the kids around town, daycare and school events, work, and fighting to keep the house from being featured in an episode of hoarders or classified as “tornado aftermath,” cooking needs to be quick and easy. Achieving a healthy meal balance in a short amount of time while using as few dishes as possible is one of the simple things helping me maintain my sanity (what‘s left of it).

    Mongolian Beef and Vegetables

    This takeout favorite is typically laden with beef and coated with a sticky-sweet sauce. Our makeover makes crisp-tender snow peas, broccoli, and carrots the star, with seared flank steak as the supporting player. We also balanced the blend of brown sugar, soy sauce, and sesame oil in the sauce. We’ve kept our version family friendly by omitting the heat, but you can add a sliced red chile or a healthy pinch of crushed red pepper if you like. You can also change up the vegeta

    Tomato, Cucumber, and White Bean Salad with Basil Vinaigrette

    Summer is here! For many, the heat inspires us to eat light. I’ve often entertained the thought that in the summer, light healthy dishes are suitable for the heat, somehow helping our bodies cope. Then again, us southerners have a different approach to food, don’t we? We love to fry everything from fish to green tomatoes and barbecue almost anything, then balance it out with side dishes such as succotash and light salads. Whether you’re looking for a succulent side dish recip
