Grilled Spring Veggie Panzanella

April 28, 2020 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Grilled Spring Veggie Panzanella - If you are going to make ONE dish this entire spring season, make it this panzanella! This is seriously my favorite salad - period. So good! TheGarlicDiaries.com

If you make ONE new thing this entire spring and summer, it needs to be this salad. I am telling you guys, I cannot emphasize enough how good this is - it is my all time favorite salad, and I absolutely cannot get enough of it! If you aren't familiar with panzanella, it's basically bread salad. Think salad SUPER heavy on the croutons, but the croutons are a little bigger, softer, and chewier ...

Creamy, Dairy Free Alfredo Sauce (whole 30, paleo)

May 29, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

I don't know about you, but when I am not "allowed" to have something food related, my brain is automatically like...hey, you know what I want super bad? That. It's like craving Chik-fil-a on Sunday...I know I can't have it so it's automatically what I want. Right now we are trying to eat (mostly) dairy free. My hubbs is a little lactose intolerant so we are just trying to avoid it when we ...

Spiralized Sweet Potato Taco Skillet

May 7, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Tacos are life. I've been having a consistent taco craving fooorr...I wanna say...approximately 15 years. It's never ending - I'm always down for a taco. Luckily, on whole 30, a taco craving is actually pretty easily satiated. There are a lot of healthy substitutes where you ditch the cheese and tortilla but still get your taco fix. Lettuce wraps = perf. Taco bowls (with cauliflower rice) = ...

Instant Pot Short Ribs

March 26, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Ah, Instant Pot. So nice to see you again - it's been a while! I was very excited to be able to incorporate you into Whole 30. If I ate things like you every night, I could do Whole 30 on a permanent basis. **Switching to you, readers, instead of continuing to be creepy and address only the short ribs.** Short ribs were a first for me as of this month while doing Whole 30, and I am sad at the ...

Coconut Spaghetti Squash Noodle Bowls

March 23, 2018 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

One good thing about Whole 30 is that it resulted in my experimental use of spaghetti squash! I've never tried it before this month, and I absolutely love it! Now...does it taste identical to a big, steaming bowl of pasta? Nah girl. But does it taste delicious and resemble pasta a bit? Cha girl...it does. At least I think so. It's extra good in this recipe because the "noodles" are totally ...

Avocado “Toast” with a Sunny Side Up Egg

March 16, 2018 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

Okay, so I'm excited about this one. Breakfast can be a struggle for me, especially while doing Whole 30. I get sick of the same breakfasts over and over again, and I get frustrated with the lack of options. When I'm not on Whole 30, I tend to cycle between phases of eggs, protein pancakes, sometimes things like oatmeal or toast, and then when I get super sick of breakfast all together, just ...

Cocoa and Chili Crusted Steak with Jalapeno Chimichurri

March 12, 2018 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

So I'm sure you have seen lots of those meal delivery ads for Hello Fresh, Blue Apron, and other similar companies, right? They're all the rage right now, and I can fully see why - SUPER convenient. Seth and I tried one a few years ago for one week just for fun to see if the food was any good. It was a fun week, but we still prefer just coming up with our own dinners! In February, when I was in ...

Roasted Chicken and Veggie Bowls with Cashew Curry Sauce

March 5, 2018 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Holy cashew sauce, if you follow me on Instagram and have been keeping up with my stories documenting our Whole 30 journey, you have been overloaded with mass amounts of cashew curry sauce. It probably has you wondering...am I obsessed? Do I eat anything else other than the cashew curry sauce? Do I have some sort of problem that leads to me eating this sauce on everything for every meal? Answers: ...

Creamy Vegan Cashew Curry Sauce

March 2, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Hold the phone, I just died. THIS SAUCE GIVES ME ALL THE FEELS. It is... Impossibly creamy Rich Loaded with warm, spiced curry flavor Literally delicious on anything and everything your mind can fathom pouring it on Here's the thing - I enjoy dairy a lot. I like the richness that cream, milk, and cheese brings to a dish. So I was thinking that part of paleo and Whole 30 would be a ...
