Chunky Homemade Granola Snack Mix

Mixing Chunky Homemade Granola with dried cranberries, cashews, and white chocolate chips makes a snack mix so incredibly delicious with the added benefits of being mostly healthy and portable. It’s a welcome lunchbox addition and a convenient on-the-go snack. My husband, a frequent flyer, thinks this mix is the perfect snack to take while traveling…no need to…

Chunky Homemade Granola

This big batch recipe makes two full baking sheets of classic, crunchy, lightly sweet granola that is delicious with yogurt, milk, fruit – or by the handful. You may cut the recipe in half, but it will keep for weeks and freezes well, too. Perfectly crunchy, not overly sweet, and loaded with chunks, this granola…

Ginger Soy Glazed Salmon

Sometimes, time just gets away from me!  I have been meaning to make this recipe for months.  Sonali of The Foodie Physician fame is a dear friend who happens to be a culinary-school trained ER doctor.  It’s a unique skill set–one that promises a conversation with Sonali will always be fascinating. Knowing my love of salmon, Sonali…

Cuban Black Bean Soup

Hearty and wholesome, this soup is a favorite in my family for its incredible flavor. Delightful on its own, although the optional toppings add to the soup’s broad appeal. For years I, like many cooks, rarely measured ingredients. We eat a lot of hearty soups, salads, and one-pot meals in our house, and this sort of cooking…

Foolproof Peanut Butter Frosting

In our family, February is full of birthdays.  There are three, all spread out exactly one week after the next.  With Valentine’s Day thrown into the mix, there is ample opportunity for cakes and other sweet treats! As I have previously reported, adoration for homemade caramel frosting runs deep on my husband’s side of the family.…

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Granola with Quinoa

This has been the winter that just keeps on giving!  Snow, bitter cold, freezing rain…repeat! The kids have been off school so many days that even they don’t want any more snow days. They know they will have to make them up in June. Although I am ready for a little warm weather, I selfishly…

Chewy Almond Chocolate Chip Granola Bars

For those who know me or have followed The Fountain Avenue Kitchen for a while, you know I have cooked a lot of oatmeal.  Several years ago, I began to feel as though I was doing my part to bring the humble oat back into vogue!  With good reason–it’s a convenient, hearty, and healthy way…

Buffalo Wing Hummus

Two fan favorite appetizers collide in this winning dip, which offers wholesome, snack-worthy appeal. Depending on one’s perspective, the lure of Super Bowl Sunday might be the good eats, funny commercials, big-name halftime show or, of course, the football! Whether you are in it for the action between the goal posts or the general game…

Warm Broccoli Salad with Fried Garlic

    This bright green side dish is a recipe I made often in the early years of my marriage after stumbling upon Ina Garten’s very first cookbook.   While she used olive oil in a similar preparation, avocado oil works beautifully here because of its extremely high smoke point. It’s a simple yet delicious…

Chicken, Butternut Squash and White Bean Soup

After 12 fabulous years, I recently said farewell to the only car my almost 12-year-old son ever knew.  Even my 15-year-old son hardly remembered the car that preceded this one, but after sinking progressively more money into it, the time had come. I had no idea what sort of car I wanted next, and we…

Homemade French Vanilla Coffee Creamer

Make your own coffee creamer to rival any store-bought alternative. The taste is more pure, and it’s economical too!   When I first tried coffee my senior year in high school, I decided I would only drink it if I liked it black.  I “learned” to drink tea when I was younger, and from the…

Loaded Dinner Nachos

You could say it was love after the first neatball!  In all seriousness, I was truly skeptical when Laura Lapp first offered me a bite of the healthy meat alternative that she crafted in her kitchen.  But it tasted great. By way of background, Laura began her experimentation process to address her two daughters’ decision…
