Apple, Blackberry, & Thyme Slab Pie

ed. note: As Thanksgiving approaches, we’ve been spotting tons of “slab pies” around the web and love their rustic look and (most of all) their ability to easily feed a crowd. We called in our go-to expert on all things pastry, chef Callie Speer, to share her most delicious slab pie recipe with a few tips on achieving […]

Roasted Cauliflower & White Bean Soup with Rosemary

It’s officially soup season! Okay, admittedly it’s been soup season at our house since the minute the temperatures dipped below 75 degrees in Austin, but I’m still really excited about it. How do I love this soup? Let me count the ways. First, it’s loaded with white beans and hearty vegetables that make it quite possibly the most […]

Breakfast

Rosemary & Apple Zucchini Bread with Ginger

The only thing cozier than curling up with a slice of this bread and a warm cup of tea? Actually spending an autumn afternoon making it from scratch, grating fresh apples and zucchini into a big bowl with oats and golden raisins, then filling the kitchen with the scents of rosemary and cinnamon as it bakes. This […]

Sheet Pan Roasted Chili-Orange Salmon with Garlic & Green Veggies

Does anyone else feel like these early fall weeks are possibly the most insane time of year? It seems like work, travel, social stuff, and kids activities all conspire with each other to happen at the exact same time in October, and in years past I’ve definitely allowed myself to become overwhelmed and just hope that […]

Dinner

Mango & Coconut Soba Noodle Salad

I’ve made some version of this soba noodle and mango salad for the past few summers and, without fail, people go nuts over it. Full of thai flavors like lime, peanuts and a profusion of herbs, it’s really the crunchy coconut throughout the salad that takes it over the top and makes people stop and say, […]

Easy Caprese Pesto Penne

Have you ever tasted a new ingredient and thought, “Now this is a game-changer”? I can remember a few times in my life: Maldon sea salt, really good dark chocolate, European butter, and most of all, six years ago when we were on our honeymoon in Italy and I tasted buffalo mozzarella for the first time. Previously, I’d had […]

Lunch

Savory Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

If sweet potatoes haven’t become a regular staple in your household, it’s time to make them one. There’s simply no vegetable like it: healthy and satisfying, crazy delicious, and as easy to prepare as a bowl of cereal. For the laziest meal, I throw a whole sweet potato into the oven, just as-is, and enjoy […]

Breakfast

Maple Molasses Donuts

I think it’s safe to say Summer is officially over.  It’s suddenly a little too cold in the evenings to go out in a tee shirt, and naturally I’m craving anything spiced.  Now that we can use our ovens happily without resenting it, I think it’s time to get baking.  These donuts are the perfect transitional breakfast […]

Dinner

Sweet Potato, Avocado & Quinoa Bowl

If I’m eating lunch at my desk, most days it looks something like this: a healthy grain like quinoa or farro leftover from last night’s dinner, plus whatever cooked veggies I have on hand, some raw greens and usually some chopped up avocado because, let’s face it: avocado makes everything better. A sprinkle of herbs, […]
