Stay hungry, be smart
Recipes from The Skinny Pig
During the summer, I try to incorporate more fruit into my diet. Not for health reasons, but because when it’s fresh and “in-season”, it’s friggin delicious. So when FreshDirect reached out with this promo, I was stoked to try the seasonal ingredients in a recipe. This is the first one […]
A month or so back, I attended the launch event for Woodbridge wines Wine ‘Cue Sauce by Robert Mondavi. The event was held at Butter (now in midtown), a restaurant owned by chef, author and Food Network personality Alex Guarnaschelli. It was such a fun and summery night (which is […]
I know what you’re thinking: “What is a quesadipper?!” “What is Smart Soup?!” “I have never felt more confused and less smart in my life”!! Or maybe you’re not that dramatic. Smart Soup was introduced to me a few weeks ago – they sent me a variety of flavors, from […]
Summer is just around the corner, so I’m feeling like NYC in July: HOT AND STICKY. I came across this new hot sauce called Fix, and it’s like sriracha but a bit sweeter and maybe a touch more garlicky. I really liked the flavor and immediately upon tasting it, the […]
When you live in New York City, there are plenty of things you have easy access to from a food standpoint: Momofuku, Roberta’s, Doughnut Plant, and ALL THE BAGELS. What are we missing though? In-N-Out Burger. SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS CHILDREN, BECAUSE IT IS WORTHY. I haven’t made a pilgrimage […]

I love shakshuka; it’s a classic Mediterranean dish with eggs poached in a tomato, onion and chili pepper sauce. Doesn’t sound like much but trust me, it’s heaven. I had the crave over the weekend, and I just got my FIRST cast iron skillet, so I thought I’d give it […]
This recipe is a bit more refined than what you’re used to seeing from me, but when I’m challenged, I don’t back down. Here’s the backstory: a friend of mine was talking about how restaurants at The Wynn in Las Vegas now have vegan options, as if that were strange. I feel […]
The weather is starting to warm up in NYC! While this is great for most people, for me, it means I’m most likely going to get sick. I am one of those people that gets sick when the weather changes. Always. I don’t like change, what can I say. There are a […]
You may have noticed that I like to name my recipes. I figure if I don’t have children to name, I can just name what comes out of my kitchen and unironically, my oven. So here we have Sticky Fingers Brioche Bread Pudding. I call it such because these little […]
