The Flavor is Beyond Words...πŸ’œ

Hey friends❣️

After 15 years of professional recipe development I don't think I've ever come across a more vibrant flavor...

​Black Raspberry Vinaigrette​

It's berry picking season and I'm sharing a few recipes that can be made with just a handful or two of your precious finds.

The rhythm of summer produce is so satisfying. We're not ready for stone fruits or ripe melons just yet, but oh, the berries! If you're lucky enough to be able to pick your own, it's the ultimate experience, and these recipes won't deplete your hard earned stash.

Are you plucking your fruit from the produce aisle? No worries, that works too!

Using berries as a garnish is one way to make use of small amounts of perfect fruit:

These individual desserts can be customized to any size:

More fun recipes that require just a handful of berries!

​Sweet Corn Polenta with Shrimp 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

My husband loves creamed corn and polenta, so when I saw this beautiful recipe, I had to try it. We loved it! We kept going back to the kitchen for snitches πŸ™‚ after our dinner. We are so thankful there are leftovers for lunch the next day! Thank you for a wonderful recipe!
I also liked the idea of using whole milk to keep the polenta creamy.

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!

Hey friends❣️ Happy Sunday! My world is flowering and I'm happy. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for early spring edible flowers like: pansies violets chive blossoms lilacs honeysuckle even dandelions You can toss them in salads, or on a spring appetizer platter.

And of course, cocktails! No Bake Strawberry...

Hey friends❣️ If I had to pick one iconic recipe to represent my baking, it would be a shortbread crumble ~ it’s part of my baking DNA. I turn to it most often when I’m baking for family and friends, and it never lets me down. I’ve made it a million ways and I’m still not sick of it ~ I love how easily it adapts to the seasons. My younger daughter is discovering baking this year and has become obsessed with these recipes. Last week she made my rhubarb crumble tart for her boyfriend, and he...
