I’ve been on a wild rice kick lately. I just finished making a big pot of this Instant Pot Wild Rice Soup and now I’m making a wild rice salad to take to a (socially distanced, outdoor) holiday dinner. In spite of being served cold, wild rice and roasted beets make this a hearty salad that is definitely suitable for winter and holiday meals.

This coconut milk curry is a year round staple for me. It’s something I can usually pull together without a trip to the store. You can make it with whatever vegetables you have on hand and it’s a great entree to meal prep in advance. It can be served on top of your favorite grain but I encourage you to try it with this turmeric spiced rice for a colorful meal.

It’s fall but the weather feels more like winter here and I am finally beginning to understand the cold weather pumpkin spice obsession. This granola combines the flavors of pumpkin pie with the classic crunchiness of granola. This recipe reflects my preference for a less sweet granola but feel free to increase the amount of maple syrup if you prefer a little more sweetness. Feel free to add whatever nuts and seeds you have on hand!
