The Flavor is Beyond Words...๐Ÿ’œ

Hey friendsโฃ๏ธ

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

โ€‹Black Raspberry Vinaigretteโ€‹

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!

โ€‹Sweet Corn Polenta with Shrimp ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ

โ€œ
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 ๐Ÿ™‚ 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. Isnโ€™t that what itโ€™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!

Madeleine Muffins!

Hey friendsโฃ๏ธ Iโ€™m always looking for ways to make our baking lives a little easier, and hereโ€™s my latest brainstorm ~ perfect little French madeleines, no fancy pan required. These are the real deal, just baked up in a regular muffin tin. Think Valentineโ€™s or Motherโ€™s Day breakfast, or a sweet surprise for the office crowd. My 3-year-old granddaughter went absolutely mad for them ~ she ate more than the rest of us combined! Madeleine Muffins I love all things mini! Strawberries and Cream Pots...

Filet Mignon

Hey friendsโฃ๏ธ Itโ€™s steak season, friends. Not just because Valentineโ€™s Day is around the corner, but because as winter drags on we all start craving some serious protein. Today Iโ€™m sharing a few favorite steak recipes, and while I love them all, Iโ€™m definitely a filet girl. That silky, melt-in-your-mouth texture gets me every time ~ and the funny thing is, the fanciest steak is also the simplest to cook. I picked up my filets at Costco, but most large grocery stores carry them, too ~ just ask...
