Minimalism. Mindfulness. Munchies.
Cornbread is my jam. If I had to pick 5 foods and only eat those 5 foods for the rest of my life, cornbread makes the list for sure. So I collect cornbread recipes, seeking the ideal version. And when I see a new cornbread recipe I feel compelled to try it out. Lucky...
Have you ever stood in front of the dairy case at the grocery store wondering about those “other” butters – the ones in the gold wrappers, the ones that come in a package half the size but double the price of the butter you’re used to? I know I have! I’ve long wondered what...

It’s summer! Most people have known this to be a fact for a while now, but summer was late in coming to CO this year. I’m glad for all the rain we got, but glad too now to get out and into the woods enjoying our family’s summer sport: CAMPING! What does a foodie...

Your Laughing Lemon Ladies will be live and in-store, cooking locally grown and raised products at the Whole Foods Market in Bradburn (Westminster, just a hair east of 120th & Sheridan) this summer. We’ve enjoyed a great partnership with the new store, going on a tour in December and...
Muy Verde means very green – and this vegan dip is indeed that, plus creamy, crazy tasty, and packed with veg to boot. Use vegetables straight from your garden, or supermarket staples to blend up this Muy Verde Salsa – either way is delightful. And I’ve got a couple ideas for more green add-ins...
I’m always looking for new ways to do veggies on the grill, and this one was a big success! The vinegar and high heat bring out the sweetness of the sprouts. Even avowed sprout-haters will want to give this tasty recipe a try! I used wooden skewers and found it easiest not to try...
