farewell to fall Since it’s officially the last day of fall (even though we’ve been in full Christmas swing for about a month now), I figured I would post a quintessential fall-forward recipe, featuring none other than beautiful, bright sweet potatoes. This is not your ordinary potato salad, with savory sweet potato chunks, crisp chickpeas, …
eggs and lemon and some other stuff One of my favorite cooking pastimes is to take a classic recipe and shake things up a bit. And that’s exactly what I did with this not-so-traditional Greek avgolemono soup. All the bones are there–egg, lemon, rice, dill–but some of the key players have been reimagined. For example, …
there’s always a hot take on thanksgiving food My Thanksgiving hot take is that I hate traditional stuffing. It’s usually super dry and kind of flavorless. I don’t like big chunks of bread, and I definitely don’t like anything that comes out of a box. However, there’s one type of stuffing that I look forward …
An egg-celent idea I firmly believe that one of the best breakfast ideas is a nice little egg bake. It so easily comes together, plus it’s extremely adaptable. All you REALLY need are a bunch of eggs and some milk. From there, you can pretty much adapt however you like. For this recipe, I kept …
I think what I like most about this dish is how the name rhymes. Ricotta frittata! So fun! In all serious, though, this is such a great recipe and comes together so quickly and easily. You don’t have to do much planning for this and can even decide to whip it up one morning on …
What’s THE quintessential dish to make for this Easter Sunday? Deviled eggs, of course! While this was never a staple on our Easter spread while I was growing up (I guess it’s not super Ukrainian?), I’ve gotten really into to this delicious and visually gorgeous hors d’oeuvre in recent years. They’re also super easy to …
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! To celebrate some Irish food culture this weekend, you must try these delicious egg cups, complete with Irish bangers and Dubliner cheese. These are absolutely delicious to make year round as well, and they’re super quick and easy for a weekend morning. All you need are a few key ingredients, ramekins, …
Mmm, chocolate mousse. Who knew only a few little ingredients can create such a delicious, indulgent dessert. I made this exact recipe for Valentine’s Day a couple years ago, and I wanted to post it last week, but time just got away from me! This is absolutely a perfect dessert to indulge in on V-Day, …
I was actually very surprised at how much I liked this recipe. When it comes to pancakes, I tend to stick to the tried and true fluffy buttermilk recipe, but I wanted to try something a little different by substituting almond flour for regular flour. It’s a somewhat healthier way to make pancakes, and I’ve …
One of my favorite breakfast dishes features some of my favorite flavors. Tomato! Garlic! Paprika! Shakshuka is a dish common in Israel, other parts of the Middle East, and increasingly trendy brunch restaurants, but it’s surprisingly very easy to make right at home. And I highly recommend it, given the medley of delicious flavors and …
