I’d like you to meet the chocolate chip cookie to end all chocolate chip cookies.
Dramatic? Perhaps. Completely and utterly, hands-down, one of the best cookies I’ve ever eaten? YES. Once again, tahini-in-baked-goods for the win!

Olive Oil Granola
Well hi there! I cannot believe that it’s almost 2 months into 2018 and I am just now getting to my first post of the year. I’ll spare you the details, but suffice it to say this year has started out insanely busy and I am hoping to get more zen back (and more recipes shared here!) in the coming months.

Elote Farro Salad
How is it that summer is almost over?! I feel like summer always flies by, but this year has taken the cake for me – between lots of friend visits, quick jaunts north to wine country and south to LA, and an extra-hectic work schedule, I feel like I’ve barely blinked and September is almost upon us.
“Summer” in the Bay Area pretty much means nothing in terms of weather, but I absolutely still use the season to take advantage of the extra-special produce: corn, tomatoes, basil, peaches, berries, oh my! When I was thinking about just the right recipe to celebrate the quickly fading summer months, this elote farro salad struck me as just the thing.

Sqirl’s Pesto Brown Rice Bowl
Despite growing up in Los Angeles and going back 4-5 times per year to visit family and friends, I never seem to really make a dent in my list of restaurants I’m dying to try. Every trip we’ll maybe squeeze one new stop in, but the vast majority of the time, we end up defaulting to our family faves over and over again. Not a terrible problem to have, but when I saw that Jessica Koslow of Sqirl (maybe #1 on my must-try LA restaurant list) published a cookbook full of recipes from her restaurant, I decided to finally take matters into my own hands and bring a little LA to the Bay myself!
