delicious seasonal eats
A big thank you to Red Star Yeast for sponsoring this post. YOU GUYS. I did it! I finally perfected gluten-free cinnamon rolls after weeks of trying. Virtual high fives and fist bumps for everyone! Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls are something that’s been alluding me. I just could not get it right. I realized what my […]
Patricia Wells is one of my favorite cookbook authors. Her book, Salad as a Meal, is one of my very favorites. Patricia teaches cooking classes where she lives in France. She divides her time between Paris and Provence, and has the most amazing garden. Doesn’t that sound dreamy? The French Kitchen Cookbook, is Patricia’s newest […]
A big thanks to Red Star Yeast for sponsoring this post and recipe. There was some debate at our house on what the name of these savory rolls should be. Did “rolls” fit the bill better than yeast-raised biscuits? We went back and forth about it. And you know what, I’ve made gluten-free biscuits before […]
Eggless eggnog? Yep. And one that’s gingerbread-spiced to boot. I based this on an eggless eggnog my friend Kathryn makes. I had it at her house on Christmas Eve about 7 years ago. Here’s the thing – I love regular eggnog a lot, preferably homemade. But there are times when I just don’t feel like […]
Ah, the green smoothie. For me, it’s a thing of beauty. I love eating my greens, but I also love starting my day by sipping them in a cold green smoothie. It’s kind of addicting! Once you start, you’ll never go back. I’m calling this one Kale Sunrise Smoothie because it tastes kind of tropical […]
Becky of Project Domestication and I have teamed up again this month to share one more Thanksgiving recipe just in case you needed another item to add to your growing menu. You do, right? I mean can you ever have enough side dishes on Thanksgiving? I think not! Make sure to pop over and check […]
I’ve been making Cornbread Sausage Stuffing with Leeks, Pecans, and Dried Cranberries for nine years. Every. single. year. Without fail. Always for Thanksgiving and sometimes for Christmas too. Okay, and really, sometimes I make it during the summer just because I can and twice a year doesn’t seem like enough. Also, I need to mention, […]
Folks, let me introduce you to what is quite possibly my favorite Thanksgiving dessert – Oatmeal Pecan Tart. Of course I always say that, don’t I? Every year we have try a new recipe and if it’s a huge hit, we add it to our yearly repertoire of traditional Thanksgiving fare. Back in 2006 I […]
This Maple Mustard Roasted Chicken is the quintessential fall dinner. My family absolutely loves roasted chicken and over the years I’ve practiced and practiced until I’ve perfected it. I loved the idea of using maple in a savory way with the spiciness of English dry mustard. I love the spicy kick ground mustard powder adds. […]
A few years ago I wrote a Mashed Potatoes 101 guide. I pride myself on making fabulous mashed potatoes. I really do. Last year I mastered what I (then) called the perfect mashed potatoes thanks to a tip from one of my favorite local chefs. And now I have mastered Brown Butter Mashed Potatoes with […]
