Here’s a fun fact for you.

I don’t travel well.

Like at all.

We have a trip to California coming up next week and I’m already in semi-freak out mode, making lists on lists on lists in my bipolar hand-writing that oscillates between print and cursive when I’m stressed.

The suitcases are out, friends, a looming reminder of all the STUFF that needs to go in them.

So it’s felt like a sort of long week here at F&V, was it like that for you, too?

Thank goodness for basic meals, like this Japanese Yam Bowl with Turmeric Carrot Cashew Sauce.

I’ll give you some yams, chickpeas, greens, and a cool new sauce if you come and help me pack all of things.

Rosemary Three Bean Salad

By Flora & Vino 4 Comments

Rosemary three bean salad with cannellini beans, kidney beans, and chickpeas in an apple cider vinegar dressing. Perfect for potlucks and picnics!

Last weekend I decided at about 7 PM on a Saturday that our pantry situation wasn’t working for me.

I poured a glass of red, cleared off some kitchen counter space, and took out every last item I had heaped onto the buckling woven shelves.

It was one of those situations where I had to make an alarming mess before achieving a fully organized outcome.

A few hours later (after counting that I have a whopping 25 + bags of granola– granola anyone???) I had a still-packed but mostly organized pantry.

(Dan said it looked exactly the same, but I pretended he didn’t say that.)

I’ve been in “stock up” mode since we moved into our condo because I love to keep the pantry filled with all of my favorites so when I’m cooking, I’ll never run out!

The problem with this, though, is if you keep stocking up without taking STOCK of what you have, you might end up with 25 bags of granola, like me.

One of my goals for 2018 is to get creative with foods from my cabinet, so I’m sharing a recipe like that today!

This Rosemary Three Bean Salad takes only 15 minutes to prepare with ingredients I bet you’ve already got hiding in your cabinet that are nourishing and delicious!

So, dust off your cabinet collectibles, pick your three favorite BEANS and let’s get started.

TGIT, friends.

All of the anticipation of the holidays is lifted and we’re left looking around wondering…what’s next, 2018?

Well, I’ll tell you what’s next.

On Instagram I polled you guys on what you wanted posted this week and I was secretly happy to see that 1-Pan Meal won!

I created this Butternut Squash & Chickpea Bake recently when Dan was out for a guy’s night for the evening.

Naturally, I took an excessively long shower, put on a facemark, poured a glass of kombucha, and went about chopping veggies for dinner.

It was so good that I deemed it my go-to solo-lady cozy dinner.

The mixture is so simple– requiring only three whole foods on your sheet pan with a no-fuss seasoning!

Virginia had it’s first snow of the season this weekend!

It didn’t stick much, but it was that wet snow-man kind of snow that makes the world look like a real-life snow globe.
