Switching up the average Tuesday with these biscuits! They are so good. It seems every spring I am reminded of biscuits. Last year I created a spicy, savory biscuit, but this year I really wanted something a bit more classic. Something that could be served morning or night and in a sweet or savory way. Enter these oh-so-flakey biscuits. They’re pretty close to perfect, and while the jam is totally optional, it really does “seal the deal....

With Christmas Eve just days away, things are the busiest ever. It’s all so exciting and it’s been beyond amazing to see all the recipes you guys have been making. I absolutely love reading through your comments on the blog and Instagram. It’s so special to me that you take the time to send me photos of the dishes you’ve made. Truly makes me so happy, and I love spending time at night going through all the messages....

We’re down to our second to last holiday cocktail of the season, and today’s drink is hands down the most requested come Christmas week at my house. I can already see my family members faces, full of excitement, as they look through these photos. Is it Christmas week yet? Watch the How-To Video Here: Frostys frosted moscow mule from Half Baked Harvest on Vimeo. When I first got into making drinks, the Moscow Mule was one I’d make all the time…and still do....

When you take Greek salad ingredients and add pasta to the mix, you end up with a hearty dish that’s packed with flavor and a total crowd pleaser. Serve your pasta salad alongside other summery dishes such as smoked pork tenderloin, zucchini fritters or smoked tri tip. Don’t forget to offer a refreshing mango iced tea on the side! I’m always looking for new ideas for summer salads. We eat a ton of salads in the summer because all of the produce is in season and salads are quick to toss together....

Making enchiladas at home is actually quite easy to do! These green chicken enchiladas taste like they came from a restaurant and are the perfect way to use up leftover chicken. I happen to be an enchilada lover – cheese, beef, chicken, I love ’em all! These green chile chicken enchiladas are ready in less than an hour and are loaded with cheese, chicken and chiles. My family requests this dish constantly, it’s just that good!...

When it’s Halloween party time, I like to entertain family and friends with a number of festive food options, including jack-o-lantern shaped pepperoni pizza pockets, Halloween punch, candy bar blondies and this fabulous and easy Halloween charcuterie board. Charcuterie and cheese boards are all the rage right now, and can be customized to create a festive appetizer for any holiday. This Halloween charcuterie board is a great way to feed a crowd before trick-or-treating, and also happens to be super easy to make....

Ahhh! I am so happy to share these! In all honesty, I’ve wanted to make these fun, super yummy cookies for months. Actually, since almost a year ago when I made my much loved Christmas Monster Cookies. It was then that I knew that Halloween Monster Cookies needed to follow. I’m not sure which cookie I love more. Both are unique, special, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. I know, I’m such a dork, but nonetheless, I just love how fun Halloween can be!...

Crispy brown rolls filled with smoky ham and melted cheese, then doused in butter. How could you possibly go wrong with that? These ham and cheese rolls are one of the best things I’ve ever eaten! Serve them alongside other appetizer recipes such as chicken parmesan sliders, green bean fries, sausage balls and spinach artichoke dip. If you’re looking for a savory party appetizer that will keep your guests full and happy, you MUST try these ham and cheese pinwheels....

Hasselback Potatoes.. sigh! Imagine thin crisps of potato chips heavily fragrant with rosemary and garlic with a good squeezing of lemon juice, still resembling the spud. Not only it is absolutely delicious, it is a thing of beauty too! I swear I could have looked at those potatoes all day long without getting tired at all. The best part about making these Hasselback potatoes is that it combines the best of two recipes – oven roasted potatoes and oven made potato crisps....

And I am showing you pasta for the second time this week. Sorry, but not really. Promise it was not planned, but life just kind of sped up and chili happened. Plus, we always have chili on Halloween. And it is COLD here. Literally. Both outside and inside. It’s snowing outside, and just way too cold for comfort inside, since our lame as ever furnace decided to go out on us....

Kicking off the start to football season 2017 with these healthy 5 ingredient buckeyes. I don’t know if any of you follow me on Instagram stories, but if you do, then you may or may not have seen both my brother and my dad sitting on MY couch last week doing their NFL fantasy football draft picks. Don’t ask me why they chose my house to do their draft night, but the excitement over this whole fantasy football thing is kind of beyond me....

My family loves Italian food and we eat it at least once a week! Some of our favorite dishes include baked chicken parmesan, pasta puttanesca, and any dish that contains this from-scratch marinara sauce. I use marinara sauce in so many different recipes, and while there’s nothing wrong with jarred sauce, homemade marinara is the way to go. This recipe delivers so much flavor, has a short ingredient list and minimal prep time....

When I say the snow has not stopped, I really do mean it. We had one day of sun on Wednesday; then it was back to snow for the remainder of the week. It’s very white outside, as well as very chilly! But at the same time, it’s very cozy, and we’re not complaining about that! Right now, I’m enjoying every bit of this snowy winter weather. It’s so great for January and has left me wanting to do nothing more than be in the kitchen baking and cooking all day....

When planning a menu for entertaining, I pay utmost attention to appetizers and dessert. Ofcourse, dinner is important too but the first and the closing impression (food wise) do play an important role in how successful a party is. These shrimp toast are based on the idea of cantonese shrimp toasts. However I make the Indian style shrimp topping with shrimp in a onion tomato ginger garlic masala. I add a few curry leaves because I love their flavor with shrimp....

Here is another quick and easy snack recipe – Khaman Dhokla. Dhokla is a popular dish from Gujarat made from ground chana dal or gram flour. It is so famous all over Bangalore that any chaat stall is sure to have fresh Khaman Dhokla. And that’s how I got acquainted with this delicacy 🙂 Dhokla is a very healthy snack that can be easily made at home. As this is steamed and not fried, Dhokla is very filling yet not adding too much calories to your intake....

When I want dinner in a hurry, I turn to baked chicken tenders, chicken gnocchi soup or these ultra flavorful Instant Pot chicken thighs served with the most delicious gravy. In my opinion, chicken thighs are an underrated cut of meat. They’re inexpensive, flavorful and are less likely to dry out than chicken breast. These Instant Pot chicken thighs have the perfect blend of seasonings and produce great results every time....

Tea time in India is special, though not british like,but in its own way.

Bursting with flavor, these shrimp kabobs are covered in aromatic spices that pair well with the sweet, juicy pineapple....

I would love to say I am ready, but let’s be honest I have not wrapped one gift. Nor have I made or planned one item on our Christmas menu. Somehow I got myself signed up to make Christmas cookies for like… everyone. Teachers, siblings, UPS delivery guys (we see a lot of Jose, especially around this time of year), co workers ( umm, sorry but your’s might be more like happy new year cookies by the time I actually get them done!...
