The tomatoes are finally good 🍅

Published about 6 hours ago • 1 min read

Hey friends❣️

I'm picky about tomatoes, and I feel like it takes well into the summer before they get that tomatoey goodness I expect. But the day has finally come and I'm ready!

Do you have a few on your counter? Ok then, let's not waste any time ~ here's where you start.

I’ve gathered up all kinds of tomato salads, from American favorites to recipes from Italy, Greece, Mexico, and the Middle East. It’s an especially beautiful collection, but these salads aren’t just pretty ~ they’re quick, easy, and a joy to eat and share.

Blueberry Pie

"We loved this pie, there wasn’t a sliver left! I really appreciate the instructions on how to make the top crust, I’ve never done it before and it worked!"

~ JOYANNE

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.

~ see you at the table!

I'm too tired to cook 🫠

Hey friends❣️ I’d be hard pressed to remember the last time I cooked a proper meal this month. But that doesn’t mean we’re not eating well, and my blender has been doing a lot of the work. I’ve got two fun new recipes for you today, and both come together in minutes. The sweet corn gazpacho is already a new favorite of mine ~ just look at that color! And at the other end of the blender spectrum is an insanely good three-ingredient ice cream you do not want to miss. Soup and ice cream may be...

🌿 Sunday on Great Island

Hey friends❣️ Happy Sunday! Well. What a week. Insane heat. Smokey air. And scary produce. I'm actually looking forward to Monday! I've blacklisted lettuce for now, which is overkill, I'm sure, but it has opened up some fresh new dinner ideas for mid July. But first ~ if you didn't see yesterday's Spiced Peach Cobbler Bars, run, don't walk. I just had a leftover bar for breakfast and I can't rave enough. Likewise my new Lemon Herb Macaroni Salad.
