Toasted Croissants with Strawberries and Mascarpone

Toasted Croissants with Strawberries and Mascarpone / Bev Cooks

How about a brunch idea?! Or a Saturday idea. Or a now idea? We’re honestly slicing, toasting, whisking, spreading, drizzling, and garnishing. That’s it. Isn’t it wonderful? And look, if you want to make the croissants yourself, that’s completely fine, ya overachiever. But it’s summer and I’m gonna breeze through these next three months the […]

Roasted Tomato and Shallot Quiche

Or as I also call it loudly to no one, THE WINTER PIEEEEE. (all those eeees are completely necessary.) I told you this year was going to be my pie year, right? I really think it is. Pies and breads. I’m working on my pie crust craft. It’s not PERFECT, but that’s why I’m here. […]

Hot Ham and Cheese Crossiant Sandwiches / Bev Cooks

For Mother’s Day! These would be for Mother’s Day. This is my vision for your life. I never make croissant sandwiches at home. Matter of fact, I’ve never made CROISSANTS at home. Have you? I hear it’s just awful. Not the final product. But the process. Takes like 18 days, and you have to pay […]

Seared Polenta with Kale and Smoked Salmon / Bev Cooks

Mother’s Day month! Okay, week. Well, it’s this weekend. Still six days away. Whatever. This week I’ve got two (2! TWO.) recipes that I believe would be straight diviiiine for Mother’s Day. Both simple, both lovely, both healthy, both motherly. They’re not motherly. They’re people-y. Well, they’re female-y. Feminine. Girly. Because sprouts. Anyway. Have you […]

Lazy Lady Strata / Bev Cooks

I’ve been waiting over 1,814,467 seconds to show you this recipe! Which is really around three weeks, but who’s counting? I call it, the LAZY LADY STRATA. Because: A) Nothing happens overnight. Zero waiting. Zero soaking. It all happens the morning of, and you’ll thank me on your gaping jaw in a minute. B) It’s […]
