If you told me five years ago that I would be cooking with mushrooms and enjoying them, I’d laugh in your face. My prior experience with mushrooms was limited to buttery sautéed cremini and rubbery mushrooms on pizza. Neither was an amazing experience. Fast forward to the present and I’ve really begun to appreciate the…
Easy Classic Chicken Piccata
Well friends it’s been a long time since I’ve posted and I can’t begin to tell you how thankful I am that it’s January. Most people will think I’m crazy for being happy about January. But when working in Ecommerce January signifies the end of the holiday rush and the beginning of the slow season….
Leftover Christmas Ham and Cheese Crescent Rolls
The holidays are just around the corner and I am unbelievably excited to be heading home and to see family. And although California has been treating us well, it doesn’t really feel like the holidays when it’s warm and sunny out. The forecast for New Hampshire? Cold and snowy -the perfect weather for Christmas!…
Creamy Maple Syrup Pie
I am so thankful for winter to finally be arriving, it’s my favorite season and it’s also the signal for the end of my busy work season. I get to go home for the first time since moving to California and I am ready to relax and visit with family. Winter is also my…
Garlic Cheddar Flaky Biscuits
Holiday meals are centered around that one main dish. But I’d try to argue that there is a food in a supporting role that is not just equally important, but maybe even better than the main dish. And that is the bread or roll. I’ve partnered with Great Midwest Cheeses to make delicious…
Roasted Balsamic Walnut Grape Brussels Sprouts
The parts of living in California that I have fallen in love with are both the food and the wine. The food because it’s so fresh and abundant and the wine, because…well it’s wine country after all. I was excited to work with Grocery Outlet for finding the perfect food to pair with some…
Lemon Garlic Seared Scallops
Things I associate with fall include warm sunny days with crisp air, pumpkin spiced everything, cozy sweaters and now rosé. Yes you read that correctly, rosé wine in fall has now become a thing. Rosé can be had at all times of the year, so why not start now? I paired this rosé with Lemon…
Puff Pastry Pumpkin Pie Bites
With fall officially here I’m ready to eat everything pumpkin spice, curl up on the couch with a good book, and enjoy the cold weather. Well except now that I’m in California it’s been a sunny 70 degrees every day and the leaves don’t change color in the same vibrant way they do in…
Tomato and Quinoa Stuffed Squash
The part of moving that people don’t tell you about is how stressful it can be after the actual move. Since July it’s been go, go, go and we’ve been finding ourselves ordering in for dinner or having frozen meals to help compensate for our business. Thankfully we live down the street from a…
Spicy Roasted Garlic Cauliflower
This post is sponsored by Frontier Co-op. All words and opinions are my own 🙂 Since moving to California I’ve realised one big difference. The quality of the fruit and vegetables here is much higher than the east coast. Maybe it’s the soil, maybe it’s the climate, but either way I find myself gravitating…
