The ongoing quest for healthy but yummy pancakes saw a major milestone with this recipe! These pancakes are are long on protein, via Greek yogurt, plus loaded with fiber, vitamins and minerals via butternut squash, all of which makes them very satiating and no-crash. That’s all very nice, but were’e talking about pancakes here, and theyContinue reading “Autumn Spice Pancakes”

Intro to Homemade Ravioli
I love making ravioli. Love it. Namely because, it’s methodic and yields a beautiful result (and is therefore to me, relaxing), it involves time-proven techniques, and, I’ll be honest, it’s gratifying when you set down a restaurant-quality dish, both visually and gastronomically, that you’ve just cranked out yourself. The last part might be the mostContinue reading “Intro to Homemade Ravioli”
From the Makers of Clif Bar…
In the midst of packing for our move to San Francisco early this summer, I found myself seated at my local dinner spot next to a resident of St. Helena, a town in the Napa Valley in California. While I typically value my bar stool at Otto (from which I’ve consumed more Margarita pizzas thanContinue reading “From the Makers of Clif Bar…”
The Ins and Outs of Marble Countertops (& Ongoing Renovation Notes)
View from the Athlete’s Kitchen long-in-coming update: countertops are in! It’s an exciting day as the kitchen really begins to take shape when this happens. I am looking forward to a big before and after reveal – it’s still a little too early. That’s okay for now because in the meantime I wanted to shareContinue reading “The Ins and Outs of Marble Countertops (& Ongoing Renovation Notes)”
Make-Ahead Monday: The Muesli Project
Since visiting Munich and several small towns in Austria this summer, and being inspired by the phenomenal muesli breakfasts there, I have been on a quest to recreate this Central European staple. A cross between yogurt with granola and oatmeal, for me this muesli has the kind of magic that makes you look forward toContinue reading “Make-Ahead Monday: The Muesli Project”
Zucchini Bread Two Ways
Since first spying our new home back in June, we agreed that a kitchen ‘facelift’ is in order, and set to locking the project in immediately. As always when anticipating something I’m excited about, it feels like it’s eons away – when we met with a stone supplier for an updated countertop in early August,Continue reading “Zucchini Bread Two Ways”
Protein-Packed Veggie Burger
So. California. Home to the vegetarian movement in the U.S. The Golden State whose sunshine and mild climate makes possible remarkable produce all year long. Hotbed of almost countless sustainable food startups and home to internationally influential chefs. And place where, to date, my out of home dining experiences have for the most part ledContinue reading “Protein-Packed Veggie Burger”
Fettuccini with Zucchini & Mint Pesto
This dish is so good, after I ate the portion pictured here, I immediately ran to my computer to share this recipe. (And I mean immediately – dishes are not yet done. Those who know me know that this means business about how good this dish is – I rarely, *rarely* do anything before cleaningContinue reading “Fettuccini with Zucchini & Mint Pesto”
Pluot Gallette
Do you ever pass by bakery windows or stare into their cases while waiting for coffee and long to order one of the beautiful treats therein, to enjoy both studying it for its beautiful shapes, colors and texture and eating it for its deliciousness, but stop yourself because it’s too indulgent from, well, all angles?Continue reading “Pluot Gallette”
Tomato Jam with Bacon, Onion & Garlic
Is it just me or is there a teeny bit of a Chicken Little syndrome about the end of Summer going on at the moment? It’s true that the season is coming to a close, but since two weeks ago it feels (on certain social media channels anyway) that this year the transition started earlierContinue reading “Tomato Jam with Bacon, Onion & Garlic”
Lasagna with Chicken & Mushrooms (Gluten-Free)
This delicious dish was unusual for us only in that we do not by design have to avoid gluten. However with what feels like a growing number of friends who must omit the grain-based protein, it seems to make sense to get a handle on a few staples. I am proud to say that ourContinue reading “Lasagna with Chicken & Mushrooms (Gluten-Free)”
Banana Bread with Peanut Butter Glaze
Why did I bake banana bread today? Oh, because the heat came on this morning… that and, it is easily the case that having homemade baked goods on our counter helps home feel warm and familiar. We are getting there as far as settling into our new digs, in no small part thanks to repeatedContinue reading “Banana Bread with Peanut Butter Glaze”
Triple Berry Hybrid
My berry addiction continues as squeezing in summer recipes feels all the more imperative – the shadows are getting longer earlier in my favorite sunny nook off our kitchen. To the urgency add a coincidental l stop at a farmer’s market that had an overage of black berries, plus a huge berry sale at WholeContinue reading “Triple Berry Hybrid”
Summer Berry Pops with Coconut & Lime
The end of summer has never crept up so fast, and the end of the season wouldn’t necessarily be on my mind if it weren’t for the fact that in anticipation of our first small dinner party in our new home, I thought to make an apricot galette only to realize that due to ourContinue reading “Summer Berry Pops with Coconut & Lime”
Fig & Greek Yogurt Toasts with Almonds & Honey
I’m happy to say that the contents of our kitchen should be here (in our new home in SF) in less than a week’s time. That said, we are already going on a longish stretch with no proper kitchen set up to speak of, with all due respect to our car-camping pot, pan, sharp-ish knife,Continue reading “Fig & Greek Yogurt Toasts with Almonds & Honey”
