You might be asking why I decided to make this in a cast iron skillet, and well, it wasn’t really by choice. I wanted to jump on the internet band wagon and bake banana bread, only to realize I am without a loaf pan. So I figured if you can […]

My Safta’s “Cheeseballs” (Hungarian Cottage Cheese Dumplings)
I’m SO HAPPY about this. I’ve been trying to get this recipe right for years, and I think I FINALLY got it. REJOICE! This one comes from my Safta, my Jewish grandmother by way of Romania, with some hints of Hungary and Israel sprinkled in. She called these little dumplings […]
Kale Salad with Avo, Mustard Vinaigrette and Grilled Cheese Croutons
Yes, you heard that right. I took grilled cheese and made it into croutons. Not sure how I never thought of this before, but the results were FANTASTIC. I have been making a lot of grilled cheese lately, and I get a lot of heat on Instagram for using mayo […]
Chickpea Pasta with Butternut Squash and Parm
I don’t know about you guys, but the craving for pasta lately has been off the charts. I guess it’s the whole “comfort food” thing, or maybe it’s the fact that it’s shelf-stable so we’ve all been stocking up. I’ve been trying my hand at different recipes and brands, and […]
Fettucine with Bacon, Leeks, and Cream

Tomato & Bacon-Braised Roast Chicken Stew
I’ll be honest, I had a hard time coming up with the name for this one. Do people even use the word ‘stew’ anymore?? Is this 1956? I don’t know, but coming up with the right name is really the only thing that’s hard about this recipe. And the BEST […]
Beef & Cheddar Sliders with Kings Hawaiian Rolls
Sooo excited to be working with King’s Hawaiian! I’ve been a fan for a long time and now I’m finally creating a recipe for them. Dreams do come true! And good news: this recipe is DELICIOUS. King’s Hawaiian has introduced a new product: Pre-Sliced Slider Buns! Most of you know […]
Chocolate Chip-Oreo Christmas Cookie Mashup
Guys, it’s almost Christmas. HOW?! Time flies. Every year it sneaks up on me, and every year I make cookies for FreshDirect’s #12DaysofCookies as part of my #FDambassador duties. HOORAY! I’ll be honest in that I didn’t know what to make this year, but I knew I wanted it to […]
