Okay THIS is how we summer. And I need you to hark it. We all have those fresh tomato sauces we run to during the summer months. And by run I mean a full-on-foaming-at-the-mouth sprint. There’s nothing better! Nothing in the whole entire world. (besides taking a colossally plump farmer’s market tomato, slicing it and […]

Farro Salad with Cucumbers, Shallots and Mint
Summer salad city right here! But with guts. This originally started out in my head as a barley salad. Not a barely salad, but a barley salad. But the store barely had barley, so I found farro, and what followed was ferociously fabulous! I can chill. This though. What I imagine for your life is […]
Summer Vegetable Bake
But it’s crunchy! A crunchy summer vegetable bake. And it’s great. This is the thing, it’s not really a gratin. Once I put the zucch and the squash next to the tomatoes, they were such different sizes that instead of having a stroke, I decided we’d slice them into sticks this time. Sticks, I tell […]
Roasted Carrots with Blue Cheese and Pepitas
Whatever, carrots can happen any time of year. I know roasted roots tend to be more of a fall thing, buuuuut I’d argue that these sweet sticks o’ happy would please any face any day any time any now. Because not only are they dusted with cumin, they’re drizzled with honey AND topped with soft […]
Roasted Chickpea Salad with Radishes and Halloumi
It’s a savory mouth festapalooza, in other words. This was my very first time trying halloumi cheese, can you believe that? FIRST TIME. I dig it! It’s weird. It’s cheese that you can sear in a pan and it won’t melt. A lot like bread cheese. Which, when I was searching out the halloumi but […]
Mushroom Garlic Pasta with Lemon and Peas
And it’s vegetarian! I’m sure you picked up on that. You’d never believe it if I told you, but I’m telling you anyway – my kids love mushrooms. Like, they LOVE mushrooms. I gotta be honest, I didn’t see that one coming. Aren’t mushrooms the gateway flavor to say, a 17 year old’s palate? Yes, […]
Skillet Gnocchi with Roasted Broccoli and Ricotta
Okay thiiiiiiiiis. Is there a squeal emoji? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a squeal emoji. I can’t imagine how one would create a squeal emoji, but if there is one, we’re inserting about 47 right here and now. BECAUSE: outside of the sheet pan we use to roast the broccoli, it’s one pan! Wait, […]
Seared Green Beans with a Lemon Butter Parmesan Sauce
And a crunchy buttery panko topping (!!), but I feel like that long title would have given you a stroke. So much butter! It was election day when I made this so I just went for it. But it’s real butter, none of that fake alien mess in a tub. So yeah, all the butter. […]
Skillet Apple Cheddar Pie
Like, pizza pie though. Yeah that got your attention. Not only is it apples + cheddar on a quick small-batch pizza crust, guess what the “sauce” is. It’s a non sauce sauce. Here, I’ll show you. Honey! It’s honey. Just a little drizzle of honey for the base, and that’s all she wrote. She being […]
Loaded Black Bean Burgers
BUUUURGS, babe. (<–hated the way I just wrote that.) But like, black bean burgahs. And omg these are absolutely delicious, you’ll lose your ever lovin’ noggin. It’s an oooooold Fine Cooking recipe, but I took my thing down, flipped it and reversed it to make it mine. And listen, I’d try to link you to […]
