Roasted Beet Salad with Barley, Feta, and Red Onion Beet salad! Yum! Though this one could have just as easily been called "Barley Salad with Beets, Feta, and Red Onion." Or "Beet and Feta Salad with..." Ok, you get the idea. The real point is that with these basic ingredients, you get all the chewiness, crunchiness, earthiness, saltiness and piquant-ness that you could ever want in a salad. Inspired by one we saw at a local coffee shop, we see many summer picnics in this salad's future! Feel free to play with the proportions of each ingredient. The only ingredient to be careful of is the red onion, since they can easily overpower all the other flavors. Roasted Beet Salad with Barley, Feta, and Red OnionMakes about 5 cups Heat the oven to 450-degrees. Loosely wrap the beets in tin foil and roast in the oven until they are just fork tender--30 - 45 minutes. Meanwhile, bring 3 cups of water to a boil. Drain the red onion. Combine barley, beets, red onion, feta, and scallions in a large mixing bowl. Taste the mixture.
Veggie Alfredo Lasagna I… I can’t speak. This creamy comfort food veggie Alfredo lasagna is heaven to me. And I will elaborate on that, I promise, but I can’t move on without talking about what makes this whole thing work: the garlic-butter-Parmesan-flavored, 50-calories-per-serving sauce. Made with love from cauliflower. You’re like, yeahhhh, you told me about that already. This sauce controls me. Just for a little walk down memory lane, here’s where we’ve seen this veggie sauce make reappearances: Creamy Cauliflower Garlic Rice Healthy Chicken Alfredo Pizza (with a really yummy whole wheat crust) Healthy Fettuccine Alfredo and now this lasagna. Like I said, carbs and cheese. The truth about this lasagna is that even with the carbs and cheese in there, it’s completely jam packed with fresh vegetables (like, more than 5 cups worth of fresh tomatoes, carrots, and spinach) and it’s only got 240 calories per slice. That, and figuring out how I’m going to brave Super Target for the first time. One more thing! Serves: 9

Cheesy Chipotle Cauliflower Casserole (Low Carb and Gluten Free) Recently I posted the low carb Pepperoni Pizza Cauliflower Casserole, which has been wildly popular here on IBIH. I still make it often, because it’s easy and sooo satisfying! Since that combination worked so well, I thought why not incorporate another of my favorite flavor profiles into it, and give it a Mexican twist? So I experimented, and created this low carb cheesy chipotle version. I was going to call it “Nacho Mama’s Cauliflower Casserole” but stupid SEO is always ruining my fun, and stifling my creative genius when it comes to post titles. Originally I made it pretty with the tomatoes and sour cream as seen above. Oh man, it was soooo good! It’s hard to say if I liked this one better than the pepperoni pizza – that’s like choosing between cheesecake and ice cream, they’re both delicious in a different way. Cheesy Chipotle Cauliflower Casserole (Low Carb and Gluten Free) A low carb and gluten free cauliflower casserole recipe with a Mexican twist! Ingredients For the puree: Notes
Baked Zucchini Chips Well I said last week that I'd probably be up to my old tricks by now. But much to my own surprise, I decided to try another 'healthy' recipe I've been thinking about - zucchini chips! If you ever look at the sidebar of my blog that lists 'popular recipes' you will see that Apple Chips are number one. They have been for a while now, but the funny part is that they are number one by a landslide. Mr. This fact is absurdly evident by a bar graph that shows the top 10 posts' all-time number of views... basically one long bar, with a whole bunch of short ones beneath it. Up until this week (when Cheesy Bacon Oven Chips suddenly blew up on Pinterest) the Apple Chips had four times more views than the 2nd most popular post. So... in light of people's apparent interest in this recipe, Mr. And the next, most logical thing that came to my mind was zucchini. To me, these chips taste kinda like thin & crispy pumpkin seeds. And the seasoning possibilities are endless - you can tailor them to your liking.
Roasted Pumpkin Squash with Candied Pumpkin Seeds and Yogurt To be honest, I was shocked when I googled “The Tao of Badass Review”. The first page of Google seemed to be a plethora of garbage created just for the purpose of selling me something and devoid of any useful information…yuck. What you’ll be reading here are simply the facts, some pros and cons, my honest opinions, and how the Tao of Badass was able to help me. The Tao of Badass, written by Josh Pellicer, is basically a manual on how to pick up, attract, and win the heart of the fairer of the two sexes…women. What makes the Tao system different from the rest? When I first intially started seeking out advice on how to more effectively attract women, I was very frustrated. This ebook covers the following areas: The fact of the matter is that this ebook covers way too many things for me to list in a short article and includes a massive amount of information. My biggest revelation about women through The Tao of Badass. The Bad Points: Obviously The Tao of Badass is not perfect. The Good Points:
How to Preserve Corn on the Cob Last year we got a TON of corn with our CSA. If you’ve been trying to figure out how to freeze sweet corn, don’t worry, I did all the figuring out for you! This year I got it down to a science. With the first frost we recently, it’s time to start preserving all that lovely corn we’ve been seeing at farmer’s markets. Fortunately, preserving corn in the freezer is so easy! Maybe you’re saying, “But Diana, I LOVE my corn on the cob! Now, before you start prepping your corn, put a BIG pot of water on the stove on high heat. The first step in preparing your corn is to shuck it. Once your corn is shucked and your water is boiling, it’s time to blanch your corn. While your corn is cooking, fill a BIG bowl or a pot with cold water and ice. Once your corn has cooked long enough, it’s time to shock it in ice water. Place the pointy end of your corn into the hole of your pan, this creates a nice holding stand for you to begin slicing your corn. Posts may contain affiliate links.
Recipe for Zucchini Bake with Feta and Thyme (For Phase One Fridays I highlight Phase One recipes from the past that have been my personal favorites. I am just starting to get zucchini and yellow squash in my garden, and this is favorite zucchini side dish will be on the menu soon!) This is a recipe I came up with to use the surplus of zucchini in the garden, so I'm begging for understanding from readers who don't have garden veggies available. The good news is that this recipe can easily be made with zucchini and yellow squash from the store or farmers market too. I consider this to be a season-spanning vegetable side dish, but with the protein from a couple of eggs and the feta cheese, it could easily be a main dish too. The first time I made this I used three eggs and only 1/2 cup of feta. I love thyme, and like to experiment using it in dishes where you might not expect it, so I used fresh thyme leaves in this. I used two medium-sized yellow squash and two medium-sized zucchini, which gave me almost 8 cups of sliced squash.
