Easy Eggplant Bolognese

There’s a restaurant in Chico called Crush that makes a rockin’ Bolognese sauce; thick, rich, and meaty. When we visit this restaurant they are happy to serve their scrumptious sauce over veggies rather than the standard pasta and it’s mouthwatering good. In an attempt to recreate this yummy dish and with the abundance of eggplant that I have thanks to my awesome CSA, I decided

Roasted Eggplant Stacks

I had NO idea what to call this dish so I’ll blame my creativity lapse on my lack of brain power thanks to finally finishing the Family Cookbook, therefore; all I could come up with was Roasted Eggplant Stacks, which is admittedly a lame name but it does the job. The dish tasted super yummy so that’s all that really matters, right? What’s the Shakespeare

Stuffed Eggplant and Crispy Baked Okra

Ever wonder what the heck to do with okra? I personally do not like the slimy stuff unless it’s well, you know, breaded and fried… With that not being an option I have just avoided the vegetable altogether until my friend at Norcal, Katie D. advised me how to make it and now I have a new found affection for the stuff – and I

Paleo Party for 10

Host your own Paleo-friendly feast!

3 weeks ago by sarah_fragoso What a week. Sprints (the dog Rowan is carrying) has recently been diagnosed with congestive heart failure BUT he’s still truckin’ - as in begging to go on his walks and playing like a (slow) puppy, and when he’s tired out he is 100% ok with a ride from Row Row. We can learn a lot from animals. Be present, play often, go outside, be happy, and when you’re tired it’s ok to let someone else carry you for a bit. As far as Rowan, this is his first time outside since Monday minus a visit to the doctor to

2 weeks ago by sarah_fragoso OMgoodness so sorry @docjohnfragoso for blasting this out there but FOR REAL this pic taken over the weekend by the amazing @michaeljlang117 is on - and this was just John goofing around so Mike could make sure the settings/lighting were on point before photographing @betterbydrbrooke and I!! If the photos of Dr. Brooke and I turned out half as good as this one I think we will have some keepers - and of course this photo of John is the only one I’ve seen from our entire shoot! It’s killing me - I can’t wait to see them - but
2 weeks ago by sarah_fragoso When we cook - we COOK A LOT - and not in a holy crap this is a lot of work sort of way, but in a we need to get through this week with ease and in order to do that we simply need to be prepared sort of way. These pics are a quick example of what meal prep looks like for us on the weekends. Sunday morning I cooked a huge breakfast to get us through the morning and then a bunch of meat was prepared - this week we smoked on our @traegergrills two whole chickens
2 weeks ago by sarah_fragoso We are better TOGETHER! We just are. When I see women tearing each other down, it breaks my heart. I had a blog reader recently comment on my website that I’m crazy - and well it got worse from there, but I’m not hurt or sad because I know my own heart and intentions and I’m solid with my own self respect, but I also understand that comments such as these can be truly heartbreaking, and it’s rampant in internet land where so many women are trying to contribute to the world but face cruelty by other women on the
1 week ago by sarah_fragoso Soooo it’s been quite the week. Lots of tough stuff in the world. I have a lot to say about all of it which @betterbydrbrooke and I covered today during our @bettereverydaypodcast which will be up later this week - so you can all listen to our pondering when that’s available. So for now I’m just living. Digging in. Being present. Showing up. Loving. Feeling. Communicating. And having an amazing brunch with @docjohnfragoso .... #letloverule #brunch #feelingallthefeels #eatlocal #glutenfree #huevosrancheros #smile #sunday #eatrealfood #bepresent #norcalgirl #sometimesitshardtounderstand #beherenow
1 week ago by sarah_fragoso Oh my gosh, for freaking reals I finally broke down and got a thing I swore I’d never get. A stinkin’ selfie stick. But hey, the plan is to be able to record some videos for y’all in the gym, my kitchen, my random thoughts when I feel inspired to share, etc. and I SUCK at trying to figure that out without help - and I don’t always have help available, so I now have this gadget: selfie stick plus tripod means no excuses to bring you all more content. Now I just have to get over my total hatred

Alone for a few hours anyway until I pick up 4 boys from day one of gymnastics camp and then the only thing serene around me will be this view! #gymnastics #gymnasticsmom #mensgymnastics #iloveit #theyareawesomekids #calberkeleygymnastics #berkeley #breathe #moments
4 days ago by sarah_fragoso My friend @lisaweberyoga knew I was in Berkeley and her exact words in a text to me - “It would be a shame if your didn’t go to @mezzo_berkeley !” So damn - I had to go and here I am and WHAT the ACTUALLY HECK! This salad was made for me like it was a challenge! The guy making it might as well have said - “I dare you to back up your #eatyourveggies hashtag because I now present to you enough salad to feed 25 people - so good luck with that you veggie eating freak!” Good thing
