Fall weather has arrived in New England! I’m sure within the next 5-7 days we will be into winter weather, so I’m soaking up as much fall as I possibly can in the meantime! I’m doing everything fall-related over the next couple weeks: eating apple cider donuts, picking out pumpkins, drinking autumnal beers, and wearing … More Apple Crumb Muffins
I’m on day 17 of my 20 day reset and all I want is some pasta, bread and cheese đ In the meantime, I made this super garlicky spaghetti squash. Honestly – it was SO delicious, and I almost (almost…) forgot I wasn’t eating pasta. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place the squash in a … More Garlicky Spaghetti Squash
I’m a very firm believer that ice cream is a year round treat. Since I have yet to share a homemade ice cream with you guys I thought today, on probably the last 75+ degree day in the Northeast this year, was the perfect time. Since I’m still following my 20 day reset, I wanted … More Vegan Cherry Garcia
One of my favorite bloggers, Joy, recently posted that she was going to take part in a body ‘reset’. Basically, followers spend 20 days with no dairy, no gluten and no sugar. I’ve been a little excessive lately, since I’ve been traveling a lot to NYC for work (and there’s literally no bad food in NYC), … More Almond Stuffed Bacon Wrapped Dates
I found out recently that my very favorite restaurant in Salem is closing. They are known for their great wine list, superb homemade pasta, and some of the best seafood I’ve ever had. But none of these things are the reason the restaurant is my favorite. Their sticky toffee pudding is unforgettable and literally life-changing. … More Sticky Toffee PuddingÂ
The last time I posted a carrot recipe, it was one of my all-time favorite recipes ever. Again, I found myself at Trader Joe’s staring at the multi color carrots and was reminded of that lovely salad. I made it last week and am still enjoying today! With the leftover carrots, I decided I’d give … More Spicy Maple Roasted Carrots
After unintentionally taking a break from blogging for most of the summer, I’m back and ready to share more tasty and easy recipes with you guys! Since last weekend marked the official start of football (and more importantly football Sunday fundays) I wanted to share one of my very favorite game day dishes. Andrew and … More Slow Cooker Beef Brisket
Welp. It was only a matter of time before work completely took over my life and the kitchen became only a room I passed through to enter and exit my house. I finally was able to take a breather this past weekend, and despite the fact that it was about 80 degrees inside, I cranked the … More Sweet and Salty Double Chip Cookies
When I came across this recipe a few years ago, the first thing I noticed was the name. I instantly knew that this had to make its way into my kitchen. It’s easy to put together and requires mostly pantry ingredients, and I was super impressed with the results. It is reminiscent of a light … More Blueberry Boy Bait
After what some may consider an excessive amount of sugar that has been shared with you guys lately, I wanted to redeem myself by sharing a delicious and healthy dinner idea. The crock-pot is essential for hearty soups and stews in the winter time, but it’s also totally necessary with the recent summertime heat. Anything I … More Slow Cooker Chicken Burrito Bowls
I know by now you guys are aware of my popcorn obsession. I thought I’d seen (and eaten) it all, until I came across this take on one of my favorite childhood snacks. Typically, this is made with Chex cereal, but this simply replaces the cereal with popcorn. I must say, this may be better … More Popcorn Muddy Buddies
Every time before making a sweet to share with you guys, I ask Andrew if he has any requests. I would say about 94% of the time, he asks for these bars. They combine the delicious gooeyness of salted caramel with two thick and rich chocolate chip cookie layers that basically taste like cookie dough. If you’re ever … More Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
One of my favorite things to grow in my garden (thanks to Andrew who has the green thumb in the house…) is basil. Not only is it easy to maintain, but it grows super fast and tastes good in just about every dish. As a result of the field of basil growing outside, I find … More Pea Mint Pesto Crostini
Last week, Boston decided that it is would be summer, and that is something I can get on board with! With temperatures in the 80s, I wanted to make a dessert that would be tart and refreshing. Key lime pie is one of my very favorite desserts that I’ve never attempted in my own kitchen. I … More Lime Pie
I’m back! Work got a bit crazy last week, with an unexpected trip to NYC, so unfortunately I had no time to cook. But after an amazing and long Memorial Day weekend I was able to whip up some awesome recipes I can’t wait to share with you guys! A couple weeks ago, I found … More Deviled Eggs (and Special Sauce!)
