Mediterranean Chicken And Farro Salad

Because salads and I are having a moment. Maybe it’s the anticipation of the upcoming summer season that makes me crave a giant bowl full of so many flavors and so many veggies. Whatever the reason, I am really into BIG ass salads right now. And please excuse my language. I just feel there’s no better way to describe a really great salad, especially one like this Mediterranean Chicken and Farro Salad....

Mediterranean Hummus Noodles

Or dinner. It’s really whatever you are feelin, but the point is that this is easy, quick and light! Am umm vegan too…but again, you’ll have to subtract the feta. Sorry, I just can’t do with out the cheese. Ok, so let me tell you my “poor me” sob story regarding these Mediterranean hummus noodles. I know, maybe not the best way to start a post. Anyway, I have now made this noodle dish three times as well as taken three sets of photos....

Milk Chocolate Stuffed Peanut Butter Bunny Cookies

When it comes to developing new recipes these days, I have two goals in mind. One, share recipes that are delicious…of course. And two, share recipes that are going to bring a smile to everyone’s faces. Because we could all use a need a few more smiles. I’ve been saying this a lot lately, but the world is a little scary right now, at least for me. Personally, my days are filled with ups and downs....

Mini Spaghetti Squash Lasagnas

My love of spaghetti squash runs deep. My mom started baking it when I was a kid. She’d just add butter, salt, and pepper and roast it in the oven. And when I say butter, I mean a good amount of salted butter. The two of us loved it. When I started cooking for my family, it was around Thanksgiving time. I created our whole Thanksgiving menu that year! One of the main side dishes was roasted spaghetti squash....

Molten Chocolate Crackle Pie

Happiest Friday everyone! Today feels especially exciting. It’s been a long week for us all, but I love that we can end it on such a sweet note with some Thanksgiving pie! I think the silver lining of this past year is that it’s really making me appreciate, and look forward to even the smallest things. Simple things like extra time at home with my little sister. Not having much travel booked through the end of the year....

Morning Glory Power Smoothie

I’m going to be honest, smoothies are actually not my favorite thing ever. Typically I really just prefer to eat my food rather than drink it, same goes for pureed soups. But this smoothie? Oh my gosh, it’s life changing (okay that may be a bit over the top). It tastes like dessert, but yet it’s packed full of all the good things for us. And best part…there’s not just fruit!...

Multigrain Dosa Ragi Kambu Solam Dosai

It’s not new how our breakfasts usually have the South Indian influence and dosa is one of the easiest and quickest option – both for breakfast as well as dinner. I usually make a batch of idli batter and dosa batter every week and that would be my savior for the rest of the week. I want proper breakfast and never can be satisfied with a fruit or bowl of oats or corn flakes....

Nightmare On Bourbon Street

Sometimes I wonder if I take these Halloween cocktails a step too far? But then, I stop myself, Halloween is all about having fun and never taking anything too seriously. It’s about dressing up and being someone (or something) completely different for a day. It’s the one day of the year we all have an excuse to loosen up and pretend we’re someone we’re not. That can be a hard thing for me to do, but when it comes to Halloween, I’m a pro at it....

One Pot Chicken And Rice Bake

I’m always looking for easy dinner recipes that don’t dirty up every pan in the house, and this chicken and rice bake is a family favorite! When my youngest was a baby I made her a lot of mushroom risotto because it seemed like the perfect “real” baby food – it was soft enough that she could chew it despite her lack of teeth. It was easy to vary the flavors so she wouldn’t get bored....

Paneer Tikka Masala Easy Paneer Tikka Masala Gravy

Most of the week days, I resort to making simple roti and a vegetable side dish to go along with it. Thus when the weekend comes, I go that extra step to make it special. It was during one such weekend recently that I made Garlic Naan. When the bread is not so ordinary, it deserves a nice restaurant style gravy to go with it, isnt it?! That’s why I made this Paneer Tikka Masala gravy....

Peach And Gorgonzola Grilled Polenta Rounds With Chipotle Honey

Today there is six, seven including the salt and pepper. But really no one counts salt and pepper. Originally, I had something else for today, but since yesterday was a big meal I figured today I would go the appetizer/ side dish route. For some reason I really like creating full course meals for you guys. Appetizers have never been a big thing in my family. It was always dinner and then dessert....

Peach Pretzel Ice Cream Cake

If there was one summer ice cream cake to make, it would have to be this one. I’ve been so into homemade ice cream this summer. Ever since I made my strawberry ice cream cake a month ago I’ve wanted to make more sweet ice cream recipes. It’s so funny because for many years I avoided ice cream. I was always afraid of photographing something that melts so quickly. Ice cream photos tend to turn out either amazing or disastrous....

Pesto Zucchini And Peach Pizza With Burrata

Welcome to August everyone! We’ve officially entered the last full month of summer and it’s both making me sad and excited. My plan is to live summer to its fullest all August long. August is one of the best months of the year for peak produce, so I have big plans to share plenty of fresh zucchini, corn, tomatoes, stone fruit, and berry filled recipes. I’ve been in New York since Monday and every farmers market is bursting with colorful fruit, vegetables, and flowers....

Pull Apart Garlic Butter Bread Wreath

This post is sponsored by Vermont Creamery. This year’s December recipes have been some of my favorites to date, and this incredible bread is no exception. Not only is it festive, fun, and pretty, it’s also easy and SO DELICIOUS. I’m talking roll your eyes back and eat all the bread before you even look at dinner, kind of delicious. Dramatic, but true. There’s nothing not to love about this soft buttery bread....

Pumpkin Spice Pecan Latte

Now that it’s fall, I’m excited to start sharing pumpkin recipes. I usually wait until October, but I made this just this past Sunday because our weather was cold, the leaves were in peak season, and the mountains had a fresh dusting of snow. I couldn’t think of anything I wanted to make more than a hot pumpkin latte. For years, my go-to homemade pumpkin latte has been made with pumpkin butter, milk, and hot espresso....

Rosemary Beef Tenderloin With Wild Mushroom Cream Sauce

As I look out my hotel window here in the city while typing, this feels like the most fitting post share. Is there anything more magical than New York City in December? The streets are lined with lights. The tree in Rockefeller center is up. The horse-drawn carriages are decorated for the holidays with wreaths and bells. And 5th Avenue is filled with holiday shoppers. All it needs is a little bit of snow and we’d have a scene out of a true Christmas movie....

Sesame Crusted Cauliflower With Pomegranate Ponzu Sauce

Mondays in January are my favorite. I’m still in the “New Year” mind-set, crossing things off my to-do list, and working on tackling my 2019 goals. I’m not really the type of person that believes in resolutions. Or even one who thinks much of making the New Year a big deal for setting goals. If I have an idea, or something I want to do, I’m just going to do it....

Sheet Pan Alla Vodka Pizza

The week after Thanksgiving can be a little harder to settle into than most. But fun holiday recipes keep the days leading up to Christmas merry and festive. I know that’s so cheesy of me, but I really do believe it. This is the time of year to enjoy every minute, even working Mondays. Yes, we have to balance the holiday fun with real-life work, but balance is the keyword....
