Cacio e Pepe is one of those recipes that scares me. How can it be that easy? What’s the catch? What are you not telling me??? Seems very chef-y like the perfect omelet or soufflé. 👩🏻🍳 Friends, it really is that easy to make it really good. We ate the whole thing right out of the pan and then I scraped all the stuck bits off the bottom of the pan with my fork. Don’t judge. We had broccoli too.…

The question: How do I get my kids to eat salad? The answer: Doritos Kind of genius isn’t it? I made what I thought was the most amazing salad last night but I wasn’t sure how well it would be received by the group. Then I remembered how much they like taco salad. Sooooooooo… I put chips on it! And they ate every last bite. I even made it again for lunch today. 😎 . Recipe-ish: . Take whatever liberties…

Seems like a cake day to me. Which makes it no different from any other day. 😬 My daughter requested a Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake for her birthday this year and I think I was just as excited about it as she was. She wanted chocolate cake with peanut butter chips inside and I just didn’t think that would work. 😏 But… I found these mini Reese’s in the chocolate chip section and it seemed pretty perfect. So, we made…

Cookies for breakfast?! Heck yeah! I don’t know why I don’t make these every day. 🤷🏻♀️ 5 minutes to mix together and 15 mins to bake. I like them best when the chocolate is still all melty, but they’re even good to snack on throughout three day. The recipe is super flexible. When I mix it up it’s more of a spoonful of this and that than set measurements. I mean, there’s chocolate! What’s the worst that could happen? 😬…

I bought some fish with the intention of making a light ‘n’ healthy meal with it. Then I beer battered it and deep fried it. I’m not sure where my plan went wrong. 🤷🏻♀️ But it was delicious. And we still ate fish! With coleslaw, homemade tartar sauce and a few onion rings made with the leftover batter. 😬 All things in moderation friends. 😉 . Recipe-ish: This amount of batter coated 3 large cod fillets and about a dozen…

Browned Butter Banana Brownies with Peanut Butter Frosting & Peanut Butter Chips. For when banana bread just isn’t going to cut it. I don’t know how there are leftovers of this, but there’s a good chance they’ll be gone before lunch. 😬 Super fudgy but still has those crunchy brownie edges (my fave brownie part) and you can actually taste the browned butter (another fave thing). . Recipe-ish: Melt & brown 1/2 cup butter and set aside. In a large…

Whipped Matcha. When you really want to get on the food trend but you’ve had waaaaaaaay too much coffee. 😳 Loving this whipped coffee trend, and my daughter has made it a million times, but it’s not for me. I like my coffee hot, creamy and not sweet. I love a matcha latte though. A matcha Frappuccino? 👌🏻 And now this. Might be the official summer drink this year. After Margaritas, obviously. . Recipe-ish: Use the whisk attachment on your…

This pasta sauce. This is the one you want to keep in your back pocket. It is the easiest thing in the world, is totally adaptable and is incredibly delicious. It’s my seems-way-fancier-than-it-really-is entertaining sauce but it’s simple enough for a quick weeknight family dinner. Sometimes I cook up some Italian sausage to go with, sometimes I add cannellini beans and fresh basil, sometimes grilled steak or chicken on the side, but this time… this one was sooooooo good… we…
