A Week with the Leakes: Breakfast

100 Days of Real Food — Mon, 14 May 2012 14:55:18 +0000

As I shared on facebook last week we’ve been working on a project where we record and photograph every single thing our family eats for a week. I’ve been posting a lot of our kids’ lunches lately, and it’s provoked some readers to ask…”Well, what do you eat?” So it was a lot of work . . . → Read More: A Week with the Leakes: Breakfast

How to Can Some Jam: A Simple Method Without Sugar or Pectin

100 Days of Real Food — Thu, 10 May 2012 16:57:27 +0000

I hope this will be my first of several posts about how to “can” and preserve fresh foods when they are in season. I am a beginner canner myself, but have always been intrigued by and interested in the whole process. So I recently took a “Canning Class” (led by Ashley Eller at Poplar Ridge . . . → Read More: How to Can Some Jam: A Simple Method Without Sugar or Pectin

Recipe: Grilled Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin

100 Days of Real Food — Tue, 08 May 2012 15:38:13 +0000

We love teriyaki sauce at our house and find that it’s great in stir-fry, on fish like sea bass and salmon, and on meat like chicken or pork tenderloin. This particular teriyaki sauce was inspired by a sea bass recipe my mother-n-law emailed to my husband back in 1998…and I still have a copy of . . . → Read More: Recipe: Grilled Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin

Recipes Using Medjool Dates

100 Days of Real Food — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 18:25:50 +0000

Maybe I used to be living under a rock, but before our switch to “real food” I had never before purchased or cooked with dates. And I am just being honest here, but it’s possible I didn’t even know what dates were. Believe it or not Medjool dates are one of the oldest cultivated fruits . . . → Read More: Recipes Using Medjool Dates

100 Days of Real Food — Thu, 26 Apr 2012 14:52:22 +0000

My husband used to think he didn’t like strawberry ice cream, and come to find out it’s because he’d never had “real” strawberry ice cream before…only the bright pink stuff out of a box. But once I made him the real deal his mind was forever changed, and I promise you’ll be “won over” . . . → Read More: Recipe: Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream

“Real Food” Condiments: Do They Exist?

100 Days of Real Food — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 12:30:20 +0000

I get a lot of questions about condiments. And surprisingly enough, condiments were one of the things I missed the most during our “100 Days of Real Food” pledge. They are like the little things you don’t may much attention to until they’re suddenly gone. So in an effort to answer everyone’s questions in one . . . → Read More: “Real Food” Condiments: Do They Exist?
