Vanilla Chai-Spiced Chunky Applesauce (Naturally Sweetened)
I know it seems kind of silly now, but for a while I was a little embarrassed to admit how much I like applesauce. I would “buy it for my kids” or make it from scratch on occasion, but it was always “for my kids.” Then it dawned on me that it was really a […]
Meyer Lemon Curd
My dear friend Becky (Project Domestication) and I team up every month and share a recipe based on a theme we’ve chosen. This month Becky chose Mother’s Day. (Be sure to check out her Homemade Tartar Sauce recipe.) I thought about sharing some of my mom’s favorite recipes (you can find her Dutch Apple Pie recipe here), but […]
Gluten Free Coconut Buckwheat Pancakes with Strawberry Rhubarb Compote
My friend, Becky, and I team up once a month with a theme and then we come up with a recipe.This month I chose the theme, Easter. Be sure to hop on over and check out her amazing recipe for Quick Pickled Asparagus. Easter is coming up in a few days, so I have been thinking […]
Quick Broiled Barramundi Fillets with Puttanesca Sauce
As I’ve spent the last few months cooking with Barramundi, I’ve seen just how versatile it really is. I love that it is sustainably farmed using revolutionary aquaculture practices. I’ve used Barramundi in several different ways, using flavors of different cuisines from around the globe. All of them have been delicious. A few weeks ago […]
Slow Cooker Tomato Sauce with Fennel
I really relied on my slow cooker to get me through the winter. I use it almost every day to cook beans and other things. It’s easy for me to accidentally forget to make dinner for my family when I’m working like crazy. Isn’t that ironic? So much food around all the time for various […]
Pork Tenderloin with Thyme-Fennel Spice Rub and Cider Cream Sauce
Pork tenderloin is incredible when prepared well. And by that, I mean it should not be the least bit overcooked, but still pink on the interior. Because it is a lean cut of meat, spice rubs and marinades are a great way to add some flavor. I’m a big fan of fennel, and when it’s […]
Cranberry-Ginger Chutney
I am a huge fan of cranberries. I think it goes back to the days when I was a little girl and I would visit my grandma’s house. She always, always, always had cranberry juice in her fridge. Her cupboard shelf was lined with tiny, straight-sided juice glasses. I loved watching her pour the dark […]
How To Make Brown Butter
Ah, brown butter. Everyone’s favorite food group. Butter is pretty great already, but when you cook it and it gets all nutty and brown, that’s when it becomes the best thing ever. I’m always surprised when a friend asks me what brown butter is. What I want to say is, “Have you been living under […]
Peach Buttermilk Bread Pudding with Caramel Sauce
Peach Buttermilk Bread Pudding. Could there be a more perfect comfort food? I think not. It is nearly impossible to compete with my husband’s very favorite bread pudding, but this comes pretty close. Bread pudding has always been one of his favorites. Every so often I make something that’s just for him. We are working […]
