photos by Ashleigh Amoroso I’ve finally gotten Adam on the grain bowl train, and I couldn’t be happier about it. Used to be that my announcement that we were having a grain bowl for dinner (again) was met with an eye roll, but now I get more of an “okay, cool” response from him, so […]
Click here for more recipes from our southern spring dinner party! For a casual weekend dinner party, I always serve food family style. There’s nothing like having guests pass around abundant platters of food to get them mingling and create a communal experience. photography by Kristen Kilpatrick SaveSave SaveSaveSaveSave SaveSave
I almost feel like it’s cheating to do another “caprese” recipe, because let’s face it: ANYTHING you stuff with tomatoes, basil, and fresh mozzarella is going to be delicious. But when I made these charred eggplants the other night for dinner, they were so ridiculously easy (in addition to being delish) that I knew I […]
Is it any coincidence that New Years resolutions happen right about the time that I can barely look at another cheese board or glass of champagne without feeling a little queasy? After nearly a month of revelry, I am so ready to savor some lighter, cleaner meals that put vegetables front and center, and my […]
Check out the full story here: Entertaining With Half Baked Harvest! From Tieghan: My brother Creighton is the most meat-loving human I know. Without a doubt, one of his favorite meals on earth is one Nonnie’s meatloaf. I kid you not, he talks about this meatloaf all the time. Fortunately, I know exactly why it’s […]
Check out the full story here: Entertaining With Half Baked Harvest! From Tieghan: This recipe is for one giant bowl of comfort. I like to call it the single girl’s dinner: It’s Friday night and you have no plans, so you make a pot of polenta, cook up some kale in garlic butter, throw on […]

If there’s one culinary lesson I learned from our trip to Tuscany, it’s that the simplest dishes are often the best. Of course, when you’re working with a tiny ingredient list, a recipe is only as good as the quality of those ingredients, so the time to make this spaghetti dinner is when tomatoes are practically […]
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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
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 […]
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, […]
