Thank you NFL for sponsoring this post. Can’t wait for my next Homegate! I’ve been hosting football parties since before I knew what a touchdown was. Or I guess I should say that my dad was hosting them back then (since I was a baby and all), but you know, I was hosting by...

Amaretto-Matcha Christmas Surprise Cake
This delicious pound cake has been sponsored by Aiya America, who inspires my matcha Christmas creations year after year. I used to be firmly in the cookie camp, but this year I've got to say that my new favorite Christmas dessert is actually pound cake. Specifically, a dense, moist, and sweet pound cake that's drizzled...
Piri Piri Chicken and Potato Skewers
I'm sure you're a dutifully patriotic citizen, planning your all-American menu for this weekend as we speak. You've probably also been expecting a recipe from me that's red white, and blue; or super traditional; or at leeaaaast originates in this country... But you know what? American food is kind of confusing. Hamburgers and hot dogs were...
Creamy Sun Dried Tomato Basil Bean Dip
It used to be that if you said the words "bean dip" to me, my mind would immediately go to Mexican-spiced refried beans, all warmed up so that the cheese is perfectly melted and oozy over chips. But now that-- as Nelly would so eloquently say-- it's getting hot in here, the idea of keeping dips warm for a...
Sheet Pan Chicken Piccata with Roasted Potatoes and Green Beans
If every meal could be this easy, I'd be a woman with a whole heck of a lot of free time on my hands. Or maybe I'd actually get all of my chores and errands done. Or maybe I'd waste even more time answering those internet quizzes that will guess my age based off of my favorite sandwich...
Dutch Baby Pesto Breakfast Pizza
I've been trying to write this post for a while-- ugh, hours now, honestly-- but I keep getting distracted by a very sharp set of teeth on my toes. And tugging at my pants. And attacking my ankles. I guess that's my painful reminder that before I begin to tell you about this delicious Dutch Baby,...
Hot Honey Garlic Sweet Potato Bake
Brace yourself for an unpopular opinion:
30 Minute Huevos Rancheros Potato Boats
Hello, my lazy-souled kindred spirits, and welcome to another episode of Procrastination Time with Morgan Eisenberg. I know that I told some of you that I'd get this to you by Saturday, but... uh... welcome to Procrastination Time! Today, I'm going to teach you how to make an insanely delicious breakfast even though you overslept...
30 Minute Chicken & Broccoli Tortellini Alfredo Bake
How I imagine the average food bloggers' dinner routine goes: She opens the kitchen windows to let the sunshine and smells from her garden soak into her house. She inhales deeply and smiles as she reaches for the vegetables she's grown herself, then slowly, precisely chops them as woodland creatures poke their little heads through the window to...
Buffalo Chicken & Ranch Potato Croquettes
This post has been a loooong time coming. It was 2014 and the World Cup was being held in Brazil when I heard about coxhina for the first time. The teardrop-shaped street food typically consists of a fried potato dough exterior and creamy, shredded chicken filling. It's extremely popular in Brazil, and extremely delicious. Or so...
Prosciutto-Wrapped Pork Loin with Apple & Rice Stuffing
This post is sponsored by the jolly fellows over at Minute® Rice. Don't work yourself into a tiffy over it, though. All thoughts and blooming brilliant opinions are my own. And I definitely always talk like this. Well aren't I just the most elegant of food bloggers today with my nice wine glasses and beaded cloth...
Make-Ahead Rosemary Sweet Potato Rolls
One of the most universally loved dining-out experiences has to be when your waiter unexpectedly brings out a basket of freshly baked rolls, right? Who isn't overcome with happiness for just a few seconds when you see that bundle of bread? They make my heart happy; warm rolls just get me in a way no one else...
How To Make The Ultimate Autumn Harvest Cheese Board
I'm not sure if I've ever gone on record with this admission before, and I'm a little nervous to let the secret slip. But here goes: I could take or leave Thanksgiving food. There, I said it. Now, don't get me wrong. I love fall flavors. Carbs are my closest pals. Turkey and I are tight...
Saucy Spanish Chicken, Chorizo, and Potato Pot
I don't know what I've enjoyed more: soaking up all of the compliments I've gotten about this Saucy Spanish Chicken, Chorizo, and Potato Pot, or soaking up all of that sauce with slice after slice of crusty bread. On second thought, I'm totally lying. It's the sauce, hands down, no contest. I'm in love with it, I want...
15 Minute Pimento Beer Cheese
This 15 Minute Pimento Beer Cheese is dangerous. You might want to close out of this blog post right now. Navigate away, look elsewhere, forget you ever saw this glorious cheese masterpiece and go on with your life. Seriously, I'm only trying to help you out here, because once you try 15 Minute Pimento Beer...
Jamaican Jerk Pork Chops with Curry-Spiced Sweet Potatoes and Mango Salsa
I'm not nearly the only one who snuck off with the cordless phone as a child and dialed in with high hopes for my future, enticed by the woman on TV who insisted in her (faux-) Carribbean accent that I "Call Now For A Free Reading!" Free was an interesting choice of words, of course, as...
Nachos Al Pastor
I make no claim to the title of Nacho Elitist; I'll eat 'em even if they're microwaved, smothered in fake cheese, and soggy-bottomed-- they are nachos, after all. But I do have to say that sometimes you have to splurge a little and do nachos the right way, and yes, there is a right way. The Right Way™...
Sun-Dried Tomato Crusted Chicken with Goat Cheese and Herb Sauce
My little brother Mark-- or maybe I should say my younger brother, as he's not very little anymore-- doesn't fit the stereotype of the annoying bratty sibling. In fact, he's pretty much the coolest kid-- or I guess man, now-- that I know. That's mainly due to the fact that he spent most of his early years trying to be like me....
Slow Cooker Smothered Beef Burritos
The only limes that I've been able to find throughout the past few weeks of recipe-making have been intimidatingly large. As in REALLY HUGE. As in close your eyes and picture a softball, but then imagine that it has a green rind surrounding it-- that's what these limes look like. They kind of freak me out ("but WHY are they so big?"),...
Yogurt Marinated Lamb Skewers with Mint-Pistachio Pesto Pilaf
I had fully planned on devoting this whole month to Mexican dishes, since Cinco de Mayo is right around the corner, and I don't believe that a person can ever have too much Mexican food. Yet here I am, posting a springtime dish that has absolutely 0 south of the border influence, because sometimes a...
Jalapeño Popper Chorizo Taquitos with Creamy Avocado Sauce
I originally made these Jalapeño Popper Chorizo Taquitos with Creamy Avocado Sauce to prepare for my Cinco de Mayo / birthday party. I figured I could make them now, freeze them, and be ahead of the game for once. Like that would ever happen.
One Pot Chicken Cordon Bleu Alfredo with Toasted Breadcrumbs
Did you have a lovely, food-filled Eater? I did, and now I'm overloaded with more jelly beans than I know what to do with, a carton full of hard-boiled eggs, and a fridge stacked high with various leftover-filled plastic containers. I'm not sure how I'm ever going to get through all of this stuff. Are you right...
Irish Baked Potato Soup with Corned Beef and Crispy Leeks
My love story with potato soup is on a better-than-Twilight, stronger than Kim and Kanye, transgressing all pop culture kind of level. It's the real deal. And if you're with me (whether or not you're Irish, and while we're at it, whether or not you have any idea what I'm talking about at all right...
Sun-Dried Tomato Basil Chicken Meatballs with Creamy Parmesan Rice
These Sun-Dried Tomato Basil Chicken Meatballs with Creamy Parmesan Rice are a result of what can only be explained as a freak accident on mother nature's behalf: I've managed to keep a basil plant alive in my kitchen for months now. Not only is it alive, it's flourishing. New leaves are coming in. Nothing is wilting. It's survived...
Parmesan and Garlic Crusted Baked Potato Wedges
I am a fan of all sorts of cheeses: hard, melted, fondue, spreadable-- you name it. But by far my favorite is the kind that oozes onto the pan when you're baking and gets super crispy in the process. You know what I'm talking about. 10 times out of 10 I am going to pick...
Southwestern Chicken and Sweet Potato Skillet
Have you been keeping up with things around here? If so, you already know that James and I moved in together last month, and so far it's been a meltdown-free experience so I'm going to label it a success. As I write this, I'm sitting on our nicely made bed with our new sheets, comforter, pillows,...
Coquito (Puerto Rican Eggnog)
Oh Christmas drink, oh Christmas drink, how lovely is your rum spike. Oh Christmas drink, oh Christmas drink, you are what true joy tastes like. Of ol' eggnog, I've had my share, to coquito, it can't compare. Oh Christmas drink, oh Christmas drink, how lovely is your rum spike.
Ultimate Sweet Potato Casserole
Listen, I know that casseroles are supposed to be just "throw it together and bake" types of dishes, but sweet potato casserole is typically reserved for special holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas, and if I'm going to make anything on those days, I'm going to make it right. That means no dried out turkey, no soggy lasagna,...
Jalapeno Pinto Bean "Hummus"
If you asked me to describe hummus, I'd tell you that it was a creamy dip made mainly of chickpeas and tahini. Yet here I am, calling this pinto bean and jalapeno-packed dip by that name, even though it has neither chickpeas nor tahini in it. What gives? Well, flavor and texture-wise, Jalapeno Pinto Bean...
Slow Cooker Honey Chipotle Stout Enchiladas
Can you believe that it's already August? Where did the summer go? We're just over a month away from swapping out lemonade for pumpkin lattes and, you guys, I'm so not ready for the sun to start setting before I leave the office. We'll be packing away our swimsuits and taking out our sweaters in no time. NO. Nooooo!...
One Pot Pesto Carbonara
Looking outside, I can hardly tell it's spring. The sky is grey, the grass is brownish, and the trees are still barren. O Sunshine, where art thou? We get less and less "spring weather" here in Jersey every year, it seems. Is it like that everywhere? Do you feel like it's either scorching hot summer...
Sofritas Tofu Burrito Bowls
As a lover of bacon, pulled pork, and burgers, a lot of people find it surprising when I say that I also adore tofu. Or maybe I should say I adore good tofu. Tofu gets a bad wrap from the many people who don't know how to properly prepare the wiggly soybean curd, leaving a lot of people to think...
Mexican Turkey Burgers with Cilantro-Lime Pesto
Typical Turkey Burgers have never really been my thing, despite my mom's best efforts to get me to enjoy them. Save for the rare exception, they usually seem dry and unbelievably boring. I'll just have a hamburger, thanks. But I've been trying to eat a bit less red meat lately (I'd been downing blue cheese burgers with a...
Sun-Dried Tomato & Feta Pull-Apart Garlic Knots
It's 2015, so I finally decided I should start using that personal twitter account I created 4 years ago. Now I'm sucked in-- I think it was the Foodie Band Name hashtag that sealed my fate. I used to tell everyone that I didn't use twitter because I just didn't get it, but I'm starting...
Chicken Cacciatore
When I used to think "date night", I didn't think "chicken". Medium-rare steaks, juicy pork tenderloin, butter-drenched lobster; sure. But chicken? Nah. It's just too boring. Too bland. Not sexy enough. However, after 3 years of James begging me to make Chicken Cacciatore, I finally caved. I had eaten it before-- a simple meal of tomatoes, peppers,...
Goat Cheese and Chive Mashed Potatoes
Mashed potatoes are, admittedly, one of my least favorite ways to get my share of spuds. It might just be me, but I'm extremely picky with my mashed potatoes, and most of them just don't make the cut. It's so easy for them too be too smooth, too lumpy, too gummy, too bland... and for...
Chipotle, Black Bean, and Roasted Garlic Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes
I love this combination of flavors so much that I've made 4 recipes now using chipotle peppers, black beans, roasted garlic, and sweet potatoes, trying to find the perfect way to use them on the blog. I've tried taquitos, soup, and quesadillas, but the recipe that really let all of the tastiness shine was Chipotle,...
Smoky Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Penne
This is one of those recipes that shows that I'm incapable of making tough decisions. I had so many ingredients on hand that I was excited to use, but I kept telling myself not to overdo it. Sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, ale, mustard, chicken, bacon, cream, pasta, parmesan, and smoked provolone? No. No, I couldn't... (Spoiler alert: Yes, I...
Fried Green Tomatoes with Goat Cheese and Roasted Red Pepper Vinaigrette
I have been waiting for a whole year to make and share this recipe with you. Last summer, James and I went down to North Carolina to visit my cousin, Ashley, and her fiance (now husband), Evan. We planned on jetskiing and picnicking and walking downtown, but we didn't get to experience much beautiful Carolinian...
Strawberry-Kiwi Frozen Mojitos
When I bought them, I had every intention of using my fresh strawberries and kiwis into a fruity summer salsa. I imagined scooping it on top of crisp tortilla chips or flaky fish tacos, and was enthralled at the idea. But then I thought, What if I added rum to the salsa? That would be delicious. ...
