Masala peanuts

I never would have thought of nuts as a whole side dish, but these peanuts are up to the task. I served mine with bowls of coconut curry corn chowder.

Shaved asparagus and avocado salad with mint

I start craving asparagus sometime around March, so lucky for me it’s one of the most abundant (and sometimes one of the ONLY) items at the farmer’s market in early spring. This salad highlights raw asparagus in such a delicate way that you’ll wonder why you ever bothered to steam it whole.

Guacamole deviled eggs

Guacamole is taken very, very seriously in my apartment. Which means I was both excited and a little nervous to add it to eggs. The result? Pop-in-our-mouth good.

The Nor'easter

Sure, I’m not in the Northeast, but that hasn’t made this Midwest winter any easier to handle without a drink. I was a little worried that both the ginger beer and the syrup would over-sweeten this cocktail, but it actually struck a perfect balance with the booze and lime.

Ginger-curry burst tomatoes with chickpeas over quinoa

Lately, I’ve been sorting through stacks of old magazines that I’ve stockpiled in the three years since I moved into my Roanoke apartment. I’ve probably gone through 60 or so issues of food and home magazines, scouring for recipes to add to my to-make list. (My apologies to those who follow me on Pinterest for smothering your feeds with mouthwatering photos.) This simple tomato recipe was one of the ones I bookmarked. And I’m so happy I did!
