Greek Cous Cous Salad

How is memorial day THIS weekend? I swear wasn’t it just March and we were told to stay home. This spring sure has sped by and I have 0 clues what I’ve done with my time. I’m kidding I’ve luckily gotten a lot done at home as with a new house- projects never end! Anyways if you are feeling me like lately…a little down in the kitchen area (read: lots of take-out because I’m too tired to unload the dishwasher) this Greek-style couscous salad is super easy to put together and packs quite the flavor punch! Extra points it looks super pretty too!

Ricotta Tomato Toast

End of tomato season usually means an overabundance of tomatoes in my house. Morning, noon, and night we have to incorporate them somehow! We definitely let the garden slack this year but we still have beautiful tomatoes coming out of the overgrown mess.

Christmas Recap with Cranberry + White Chocolate Cookies

Happy Holidays readers! I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday season and is ready to celebrate the New Year! I, for one, had a fantastic holiday. We hosted brunch this year, as we have the last 2 years since Ro was born. It’s just easier to keep her home and have our families come to us. I also love entertaining, we don’t have a lot of space but we try to make it work!

Father’s Day Surf and Turf

It’s Father’s Day, Y’all (that’s an ironic ‘Y’all’ as I am not from the south). So, I guess that means once a year we have to get off our high horses and pretend that the men in our lives are deserving of our praise and appreciation. Insert: massive eye roll.

Aji Verde (Peruvian Green Sauce)

 

Summer is winding down but I am just FIRING (my grill) BACK UP.

But really, i’ve been a grilling machine this summer. And one of my new weekly favorites is a nice steak with this Peruvian green sauce (also known as Aji Verde). In Peruvian restaurants it’s put out on table as a condiment, like salt and pepper. It’s literally delicious on EVERYTHING- chicken, steak, rice, potatoes etc.
