Recipe: Butternut Squash, Sage, and Caramelized Onion Flatbread with Balsamic Glaze (Gluten-free)

With the holidays right around the corner, I’ve started testing a few fall-inspired recipes for Thanksgiving. And since the weather is FINALLY offering a little reprieve, I’m cranking the oven up–way up–for this post!

Braised Shiitake Mushrooms

Braised Shiitakes, Spinach & Rice Dried shiitake mushrooms… These guys are very versatile and carry a much different flavor than their fresh counterpart. According to Wikipedia, the sun-drying process draws out the umami flavor by breaking down proteins into amino acids. You learn something new everyday. All this time, I thought that my mom would […]
