Strawberry Butter

Strawberry Butter

One of the things I love about my running group is that after our Saturday morning run we head straight to brunch (yes, sweaty running clothes & all!).  One of our regular restaurants just happens to be a couple blocks from my apartment.  It also happens to have some killer strawberry butter.  The second the bread basket [...]

Maple Quinoa Granola - TheCornerKitchenBlog.com

What are your thoughts on maple syrup?  Are you a Log Cabin or Aunt Jemima lover, or do you go straight for the good stuff, pure maple syrup?  I’m not ashamed to admit I spent my childhood smothering my pancakes and French toast with thick pools of Log Cabin.  I had no interest in “real” maple [...]

Spring Herb Quinoa Salad

We’re almost there.  We’re so close I can practically feel the warm sun on my shoulders and the grass between my toes.  I’m feeling especially excited for weekend picnics in the park this year!  Relaxing afternoons in Central Park filled with food, friends, sunshine, frisbee….oh, and did I mention the food! Today I’m guest posting on [...]

Lemon and Herb Poached Halibut

I have the hardest time walking through the farmers market during spring.  I absolutely enjoy it, don’t get me wrong.  That’s the problem though, I enjoy it a little way too much.  There’s so much green goodness popping up all over the place, and I want to take it alll home!  Crazy, but I having [...]

Chickpea and Tofu Stir Fry

Every so often I go through phases where I’m at a total loss for dinner ideas.  I feel like I make the same meals over and over, alllll the time.  Forget putting together any new recipes, that doesn’t happen.  Finding inspiration is a complete and utter struggle.  Please tell me you’ve also been there! I went [...]

Coconut Vanilla Bean Rice Pudding

Coconut Vanilla Bean Rice Pudding

As I made this pudding I was immediately transported back to my childhood.  Well, it wasn’t this rice pudding in particular did it (although I wish I grew up eating coconut vanilla bean rice pudding!).  Any type of rice pudding does it, really.  And, to throw a curve ball at you, I never actually ate rice pudding as [...]

Sesame Roasted Asparagus

I’ve had some crazy things going on here for the past few days.  Last Thursday morning I woke up in a really foggy haze that can best be described as feeling drunk and hungover at the same time, in a really bad way.  I started to consider what I had to drink the night before, [...]

Healthier Lemon Artichoke Dip

After I got home from Panama (I’m working on a photo-filled recap for you…stay tuned!), there were two things I was really looking forward to – getting back in the kitchen and getting back to Central Park to start logging some solid mileage. That first part was a piece of cake, but the second part [...]

Strawberry Avocado Smoothie

Strawberry Avocado Smoothie

Have I ever told you about how much I love avocados?!  Love them like crazy!  Love, love, love, love!!  And strawberries, well, they make me feel the exact same way!  I’m absolutely smitten with these deep red berries.  Eating an entire basket in one sitting….piece of cake.  So, clearly it made sense to throw them together in the [...]
