If it’s the peak of summer, your garden is churning out more tomatoes than you know what to do with, and you’re hungry…I have two words for you: homemade marinara. More specifically, a homemade marinara with fresh tomatoes (no canned tomatoes or tomato paste here)! Because summer is all about celebrating that garden-fresh produce, and this marinara is the perfect way to celebrate. Most recipes will have you blanch the tomato to remove the skin, but I find that it’s unnecessary and takes too much time (plus, the skin has healthy insoluble fiber – double win)....

Hello, Crispy Chips I think we can all agree that chips and salsa are among the best snacks known to man.

They’re a great way to save money and reduce food waste, and you can also decide exactly what goes into your recipe....

Cold brew coffee is the cooler, older sibling of iced coffee. It’s made chilled, never heated, and with a higher coffee-to-water ratio than regular drip coffee.

Similar to cold brewed tea, you don’t need any fancy equipment. No French press. No coffee pot....
