Baked Chicken Milanese with Arugula and Tomatoes

Baked Chicken Milanese is made with breaded chicken cutlets, baked in the oven topped with arugula, tomatoes and balsamic. This is my favorite restaurant dish, made healthier!

Milanese is one of my favorite dishes, especially topped with arugula and tomatoes. I make a similar dish with fish in this Flounder Milanese recipe, and in this Japanese version of Togarashi Chicken.

Gochujang Brings the Sweet Heat

I first heard the word gochujang when a trio of chefs opened their baskets to find a tub of it on an episode of Chopped. They all seemed familiar with the condiment, but I was not. I was intrigued — even more so when I learned it was a Korean chili paste of fermented soybeans and rice with a sweet and savory kick. Fast-forward a few years and gochujang is finally set to hit Main Street America in a big way. Whole Foods introduced a limited-edition line of gochujang-spiked products — ketchup, mustard, marinade, barbecue sauce, hot sauce and even…

Podcast Ep 92: Triathlete and Author Susan Lacke

Susan Lacke is a fitness writer who’s contributed to a whole slew of regional and national publications (including Fit Bottomed Girls!), as well as an endurance athlete who participates in challenging races around the world. (If it sounds like a terrible idea at the first mention … chances are good she’ll be eyeing the registration button within a day or two.) The fact that she lost her hearing as a child and competes deaf is no biggie to her — she has overcome many challenges in her life to find her true self and passion for adventure. Plus, she is…

Getting Caught by Our 2-Year-Old

I recently shared my experience with sleeping in the same bed as my husband after having our second child. The following situation happened shortly after my husband and I reconvened. I’d like to remind you that we sleep in the same room as our 5-year-old and 2-year-old. After over two years of not sleeping together, finally the night had arrived when I could sleep with my husband again … for good. Sleeping beside my husband has been wonderful. We’ve been late to get up in the morning every day since back in bed together. It has been comforting to have…

3 Phrases That’ll Help You Break Free from the Comparison Trap

Comparison. Comparison. Comparison. You probably already know that it’s the thief of joy (we love that quote), but how the heck do you break free from it when you’re scrolling through your Instagram feed or you’re doing a workout and all the thoughts and feelings start popping up as to how you stack up against others be it in fitness, motherhood, your career or just life in general? It’s darn near impossible to avoid, but when you start to feel that comparison trap ickness bubble up — and then your thoughts start to spiral down that no-good place — here…

Whole Foods Market: Art of the Grill by Michelle Tam https://nomnompaleo.com

Love grilling, but too hot and tired to throw together dinner? Well, I’ve got some exciting news for you…

Whole Foods Market: Art of the Grill by Michelle Tam https://nomnompaleo.com

…I’ve teamed up with Chef Melissa King and Chef Tu David Phu on a fun summer collaboration called “Art of the Grill” to share some of our favorite tasty recipes at Whole Foods Market locations throughout Northern California and Reno, Nevada!

We each have offerings that are pre-marinated and ready-to-grill in the butcher and seafood counter, as well as ready-to-eat selections at the chef’s case in the deli section!

From now until the end of September 2018, you can buy my tandoori-marinated chicken and skewers at the butcher and seafood counters to toss on the grill. See?

Whether you’re looking for some tasty stuff to throw on the grill—like pre-marinated tandoori skewers or chicken thighs—or grabbing pre-made food to chow on ASAP, I’ve got you covered this summer. But hurry and go get some before everything’s gone!

Oh—and while you’re cruising by the butcher counter…

…don’t forget to stock up on my Magic Mushroom Powder! My own blend of umami-licious awesomeness is now on the stock list at all Whole Foods Markets in the United States—but you should call your local store to check if they have it on hand. (From my own experience visiting Whole Foods Market locations across the U.S., some stores haven’t dedicated shelf space to Magic Mushroom Powder, but keep tins of MMP in the stock room; other stores have run out and haven’t re-stocked. If that’s the case, ask the store to re-order it so you can pick some up later!)

Whole Foods Market: Art of the Grill by Michelle Tam https://nomnompaleo.com

Not near a participating Whole Foods Market? No worries—you can recreate these dishes at home by following my recipes for Super Easy Tandoori Chicken, Mexican Watermelon Salad, and Spicy Mango Cabbage Slaw. Yes, it’ll take a little more elbow grease, but the results will be delicious.
