A few great recipes to get you through the week☀️🍅


Hey friends❣️

You know those emails where they're trying to reel you in with the 60 best dinner ideas, or the 47 salads you have to make this summer? It's kind of overwhelming if you ask me. I just need a few good recipes to get me through the week, thanks :)

Summer Tomato Melts

Tomato sandwiches are great, but tomato melts are better. It's the cheese. You get the cool juicy tomato, my special basil mayo, and that melty/crispy cheese in every bite. It's a goodie.

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about? My recipes are bold and vibrant, but totally approachable ~ and my philosophy? We should all have the tools to feed ourselves well, and the confidence to cut loose a little in the kitchen. Food should be fun!

blueberry poppy seed bread

Hey friends❣️ I'm definitely on a roll lately, can you tell? I mean any week I can publish Tomato Melts, Boursin Butter, and No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecake is a good week in my book. And I'm finishing strong with a phenomenal quick bread~ Blueberry Poppy Seed Bread (one bowl) It's soft and moist, loaded with berries, and has my signature crunchy crackly top. Slice it nice and thick, sit down with a cup of something steamy and give it a taste test. Don't talk with your mouth full, I already know...

fig cake

Hey friends❣️ We’re in the home stretch, people. August has its own kind of energy ~ slower, softer, a little overgrown. The kitchen’s full of fruit flies, corn husks, and peaches begging to be baked. There’s good eating to be done, for sure. Your AUGUST kitchen playlist, in no particular order (It's really hard to pick favorites this month but I'll call out the zucchini bars, the zucchini layer cake, and those mouth watering masa harina biscuits. And let's just say I totally get how the...

no bake chocolate cheesecake

Hey friends❣️ Consider this your digital cool breeze. It’s been hot and rainy here, and the bad hair days are stacking up ~ but there’s still plenty to love about mid-summer! No Bake Double Chocolate Cheesecake Not sure what to lead with here. It’s no-bake, which makes it perfect for this steamy week ~ but really, it’s all about the chocolate. Rich, full-flavored, with just a hint of tang…it might even top the chocolate cheesecake that’s been living rent-free in your memory. (Mine? A...
