These twice-baked tahini-glazed chicken wings are my favorite paleo appetizer. They’re crispy and juicy, and the glaze has a perfect mix of sweet and savory flavors. 
My only appreciation for winter comes from the fact that it’s pretty much a prerequisite for spring, at least in this part of the world. And, in my optimistic opinion, we’re on the road to spring beginning on December 22nd, when we start getting an additional minute or two of light each day. Spotting a vestige of light in the sky after 5 pm gives me hope.

Even when a blizzard comes through, dumping two feet of snow on my city and leaving my street virtually impassable for days afterward, I know that we are on the up and up, the unstoppable vector leading to spring.
In the meantime, let’s eat some chicken wings! Read More…

Sweet Potato & Roasted Garlic Hummus

March 28, 2014 By Becky Leave a Comment

Is it spring yet?  It’s still freezing here.  Also, yesterday was so windy that I ended up getting dust and tiny pebbles blown into my eyes several times during my ten-minute walk to the train.  A little early-spring sandstorm right here in Boston.  Needless to say, I was not a fan.
I’m trying to keep my food springy, in hopes that the weather will follow suit.  So, here is some paleo (chickpea-free) hummus.  It’s a little sweet from the sweet potato, but with lots of savory flavor from the tahini, a whole head of roasted garlic, and some garlic-infused olive oil.  Don’t be intimidated by the large quantity of garlic–it mellows out as it roasts, and the flavor is amazing.  Your house will smell amazing, too.
