I call this a lowkey feast because it comes together easily despite being composed of a good number of dishes and the prep work is separated over two days, meaning you don’t have to spend the precious last days of summer in the kitchen. What is all that beautiful food, you’re wondering?? Grilled Butternut Squash…

Zucchini in a White Bean & Miso Sauce with Ginger-Crusted Shrimp and Pea Shoots

They’re at least twice as tasty and healthy as their conventional forefathers. The use of almond flour isn’t forced like I see in many recipes, not a last-grasp attempt at replacing or using less grains. Instead…
