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, […]

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 […]

And the ricotta is cracked! Like, for Halloween. I planned that. I planned the . . . cracking. I knew that would happen. No, I did. But aren’t they cute? Cracking aside, you’re going to obsess over the flavor because I don’t know if you heard, but we put lemon in that ricotta and it’s […]

Cucumber, Mint and Feta Bruschetta

Cucumber, Mint and Feta Bruschetta / Bev Cooks

Oh, that rhymed! This is the thing: this topping? UNREAL. I’m calling it bruschetta because it’s on toasted baguette and it sounds super cute, but do you want to know how I ate it after a bite of the toast? Besides spooning it with a shovel into my unhinged jaw? Salad! I sprinkled it over […]

More gruyere! Just get into it. Listen, when it’s July, you tomato. You just do. This isn’t something to be negotiated. As of this moment, you’re officially on a mission to hunt down (Liam Neeson style) the most spectacular heirloom tomatoes you can possibly find and make your entire life about them. Because look at […]
