Gruyere and Herb Puff Pastry Twists

Gruyere and Herb Puff Pastry Twists / Bev Cooks

Twists! Made out of PUFF PASTRY. Is this heaven? Me thinks yes. Not only are we snacking on puff pastry twists, they’re stuffed with gruyere cheese and garden herbs and Everything Bagel seasoning. Brunch just got a facelift. And you know what, these don’t even have to be brunch focused. Let’s call them an anytime […]

Mini Pear Pies / Bev Cooks

You didn’t think Thanksgiving could be so cute, did ya? And listen to this, I made these mini, like single serves, but you could definitely just tuck them all into one pie crust like a normal person. I changed it up though and added brown sugar and cinnamon and butter! (oh my?) La-het us peepeth. […]

Apple Brie Skillet Pie

Apple Brie Skillet Pie / Bev Cooks

You know like, pizza pie. Although this feels more appetizery to me, it is still pizza dough, and sinfully fall with all those delicate apples and creamy slices of brie. You are going to need to sit down for this. Heck, you might even lie down. Whatever you need to do. Let us peepeth. I’ve […]

Cheesy Tomato and Crab Biscuit Cups

Cheesy Tomato and Crab Biscuit Cups / Bev Cooks

More tomato biscuits! But this time they’re not scones. They’re cups. Cuppies. Cups. We’ll say cups. And they have crab in them. Imitation! Look, your reaction to the lobster lettuce cups made it clear to me that we all seem to be on this side of snooty booty camp, so we’re having some more, man. […]

You’re either going to think I’m complete trash by the end of this post, or you’ll love meh with your entire blistered soul. We’re not going to talk about how everything costs one million dollars right now. It’s outrageously frustrating. So I say, when the times get stupid, we eat imitation lobster and love every […]

Radishes with Pesto Butter

Radishes with Pesto Butter / Bev Cooks

Veeeeeeery simple summer side dish comin’ at ya today. (<–not sure how I felt about “comin’ at ya.”) First of all, if you’ve never just casually snacked on radishes, what is your life? Crunchy, peppery, pungently satisfying. They’re like little mouth bombs of pleasure. AND THEN WE ADD IN PESTO BUTTER. We’re gonna need to […]

Ricotta Dip with Honey, Lemon and Chives

Ricotta Dip with Honey, Lemon and Chives / Bev Cooks

Back with another side dish! Dip-style. And this one is an under-five minute no brainer. Zero cooking. Only spooning and snipping and drizzling and sprinkling. Also, don’t tell anyone but it’s a copy cat of my beloved French Market’s famous ricotta dip. Only theirs is fresh ricotta (which you can totally do!), and hand dipped, […]

Avocado Cucumber Salsa

Avocado Cucumber Salsa / Bev Cooks

Another side dish! In dip form. Salsa form. You guys really like dips. Maybe this blog will be named Bev Dips from now on. (ew) It’s a (version of a) salsa that’s been swirling around the interflex for some time now. A little trendy, but I can’t help but see why. It’s the best of […]

Sour Cream and Roasted Onion Dip

Sour Cream and Roasted Onion Dip / Bev Cooks

It’s Dip Day! (<–not a thing) But it could be. This is one of those dreamy dips that sticks with you. It works best if you’d had a moment to chill it for a few minutes post blitzing so that it firms up, so try not to skip that part. The flavors are fire (apparently […]
