Cream Cheese Pumpkin Bread
Since we were on our Weddingmoon for the month of September, I feel like we’ve missed the fall season. We got back and found the stores already filled with fall colors, pumpkins, and Halloween candy. I haven’t even gotten the chance to make many pumpkin-spiced dishes this year. That’s a big difference from last year when […]
Salmon With A Creamy Dill Mustard Sauce
Simple, quick, and super-flavorful. I don’t think I need to say anymore. Okay, okay. Maybe just a little more. This salmon looks quite fancy and elegant, but it’s actually one of the simplest dishes that I make. Just sprinkle some breadcrumbs over the salmon and bake. While the salmon is turning a pretty pink color in the oven, […]
Roasted Butternut Squash Soup
I’ve been meaning to post this recipe for a long time. However, I could never get the pictures to look appetizing and that’s a huge deal for a food blog. Personally, I know that I wouldn’t make food that looks unappealing. I don’t know why I had so much trouble photographing this beautiful golden soup, but […]
Homemade Garlic Parmesan Croutons
Homemade croutons are a great way to elevate your soups and salads to the next level. They are easy to make, so there is no excuse for not making your own. Best of all, you can flavor the croutons with herbs, cheeses, and garlic to complement your dishes. Although you may use sliced sandwich bread, […]
Spicy Indian Chicken Curry
This spicy Indian chicken curry is pretty incredible. The chicken is stewed in a onion-tomato sauce and flavored with a variety of spices. As an added bonus, the aromatics in this dish make the whole house smell phenomenal. I was even laying in bed last night salivating. This is also one of those dishes that […]
German Potato Salad
I’m usually not too creative with my side dishes. As I’ve mentioned before, I focus on the main dish and completely forget about any sides. About five minutes before serving, I suddenly realize that I’m missing half my dinner and throw some veggies into a skillet. Today, I decided to focus on the side dish. […]
Spicy Cashew Rice
This Indian-style spicy cashew rice is an incredible side dish. Who knew so much flavor could be packed into a rice dish? Plus, it has cashews. And we’re a bit obsessed with cashews. The plan was to make this spicy rice last week, but we ended up eating the entire can of cashews before I […]
Roasted Turkey with a Rosemary Dry Brine
This year, I decided to change things up a bit by dry brining my Thanksgiving turkey. Since I am a bit of a perfectionist, I had a few dry runs with my rosemary dry brine. Dry runs with dry brine – that makes me giggle. This turkey is incredibly juicy and flavorful with beautiful, crispy […]
Boozy Bourbon Cranberry Sauce
I normally start planning my Thanksgiving dinner in early November each year. I don’t like making the same thing each Thanksgiving, so I’m always trying new recipes. I’ll test most of them during the month, but there is usually an untested recipe that makes it onto the table. Last year, it was my apple and bacon stuffed sweet […]
Thanksgiving Eggs Benedict
I love Thanksgiving for one main reason: the leftovers. Mostly because I can just pull the leftovers out of the fridge and have a complete meal with minimal effort. In our house, Thanksgiving is a multi-day affair. By the time Thanksgiving dinner arrives, I’m exhausted. To keep from having the same thing every day after […]
