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 […]

Potato Noodle Hash Browns
These potato noodles are fried on a panini press or waffle iron until deliciously crispy and golden brown. Top them with with a sunny side up egg and you’ve got a complete breakfast. I wasn’t kidding when I said earlier this week that I was spiralizing anything I could get my hands on. After making my Cinnamon […]
Blackened Mahi-Mahi Taco Bowls
Just a few weeks ago, I made one of my favorite taco recipes: Blackened Mahi-Mahi Tacos. The tacos are filled with spicy blackened fish, cheese, tomatoes, cabbage, and drizzled with a chipotle mayo sauce. So. Much. Flavor. These Blackened Mahi-Mahi Tacos Bowls have many of the same flavors, with less mess. I’m pretty messy when it […]
Chilean Sea Bass in a Bag (En Papillote)
This Chilean Sea Bass is gently steamed in its own juices with white wine and aromatics. This is a wonderful recipe to serve for guests since everyone can get their own little parchment packet. Cutting the bags open tableside makes for an impressive presentation, filling the room with steam and aromatics. In these packets, I’ve added […]
Cinnamon Roll Christmas Tree Pancakes
These Cinnamon Roll Christmas Tree Pancakes are perfect for a kid-friendly breakfast on Christmas morning. Kids can even decorate their own pancakes with icing, chocolate syrup, or chocolate chips. Drizzled with a cream cheese icing, this festive breakfast is the perfect marriage between pancakes and cinnamon rolls. Aren’t these pancakes just adorable? I used a Christmas tree cookie […]
Olive Tapenade
It’s been a bit of a crazy holiday season in my house, so I apologize for the lack of new recipes. At the end of December, I came down with a horrible cold. Usually a cold doesn’t slow me down much, but this one completely knocked me out. This night owl was sound asleep by […]
