Honey Buttermilk Cornbread
Honey Buttermilk Cornbread. This tender and sweet cornbread makes the perfect side for a summer BBQ or Thanksgiving dinner.

A sweet garlic-onion-herb butter is smeared over spongy ciabatta, hit with plenty of parmesan, and baked until beautifully browned. At the risk of ruining my well-established reputation as the pinnacle of all things cool (haaaah), I’ve started doing food trivia…
Mezze Party Platter
I almost flipped the whole damn table over on Friday night. James suggested that we do a date-night dinner this past weekend at our favorite little Turkish hole-in-the-wall and I was all about it. Partially because I am absolutely obsessed with the food there– the creamy hummus, the crispy falafel, the warm pita bread, the butter-soft grilled meats, the…
Party Potato Pave Bites with Cheese Sauce

Strawberry Avocado Spinach Salad with Greek Yogurt Poppy Seed Dressing
Something strange happened last week that I’m still trying to wrap my head around. James and I went to a cook-out where the hosts totally (and deliciously) went overboard with the food: there were sausages of every sort, kebabs piled so high on platters that it looked like they’d topple over, racks upon racks of ribs,…
Easy BBQ Bacon Baked Beans
I try not to throw the word “ultimate” around here too much because there are thousands of classic recipes on the web, but sometimes I sink my fork into something that’s too good for modesty… and you guys, after my first bite of these beans, I knew it was one of those times. I’ve made…
Greek Avocado Salad with Garlic-Dill Vinaigrette
How many more times do you think I’m going to bundle up in my puffiest ski jacket before taking a step outside and realizing that the sinisterly frigid season is decidedly over– not just “it’s technically spring” over, but “I can go to the grocery store with a t-shirt on and survive strolling through the refrigerated section” over?
