Let’s please obsess over this together. Because there is no way you can understand how delicious this mess is. Farfalle pasta – hello, fun. Toasted pine nuts – hello, fancy. Diced crispy pancetta – hello, divine. And wilted earthy arugula – hello, a salad. Just kidding. Don’t tell anyone I said that. This is a […]

Seared Zucchini with Pine Nuts and Mint
Another summer side dish in our Summer Side Dish Series this summer of side dishes! (I can chill.)

Pilaf, Pretty Please.
So, Aaron had his 2-week follow up appointment this morning for the plethora of nasal surgeries he endured not long ago.
