Butternut Squash Mash

This is a really great side dish and I was actually surprised with how this came out.  I literally treated the butternut squash like it was potatoes and also added some of my favorite ingredients.  I get tired of roasting the squash or having it in soup.  Why not get a little creative? Butternut Squash…

Cauliflower Mash with Goat Cheese

Cauliflower mashed “potatoes” has been pretty hot for the past couple of years. I was never particularly a fan, but we jazzed it up a bit and I hope you guys try this recipe. It definitely doesn’t taste like mashed potatoes to me, but it definitely has the consistency. Put all different ingredients in it…

Gluten Free Goat Cheese Lasagna

This recipe is dedicated to my Mama and 100% hers. My mom is self-proclaimed lactose intolerant.  She has diagnosed her own dairy sensitivity.  That makes being an Italian and loving Italian food a little hard in our house, especially when it comes to staples like lasagna.  She actually found that she can tolerate goat cheese…

Grilled, Stuffed Portobellos

This is a side you can really get creative with.  Portobellos are great building blocks if you are trying to avoid carbs- you can make mini pizzas!  Portobellos go great with almost any flavor, so feel free to try different combos.  You’ll figure out what you love the most and it’s a really easy staple…

Goat Cheese Asparagus Quinoa Salad

Patatas Bravas

I’m a big fan of Club W.  If you haven’t heard of it, but you like wine, you should definitely look it up.  I’ve been with them since they first started and I’ve never received one bad bottle of wine. They always send these recipe cards with their wine and I’ve never tried them.  Either…

Eggs in a Tomato Puree with Goat Cheese

I had a “Sleepover in the City” with three of my best friends this weekend.  We had some amazing food while I was there, but this dish really hit home.  It was something I could easily recreate in my own kitchen on a weekend and it had some of my favorite ingredients.  This dish was…

Easter Brunch: Prosciutto and Goat Cheese Strata

I’ve never been a big fan of egg casseroles, stratas, frittatas… I just personally like my eggs and meat separate- I feel like the flavor of the meat permeates through the egg and all the layers of cheese and everything.  If you don’t like the taste of eggs- then that’d be good for you.  I,…
