And so it begins: my egg salad kick. Every year after Easter, I make this egg salad recipe to use up the hard boiled eggs left over from my family’s celebration. That first batch of egg salad reminds me just how fresh, bright, and flavorful this recipe…
With Easter just a few weeks away, I’m busy planning my Easter brunch menu. If you are too, you’re in the right place! Below, I’ve rounded up my best Easter brunch ideas, including crowd-pleasing favorites like breakfast casserole, ci…
My husband Jack and I don’t usually see eye to eye when it comes to holiday side dishes. He’d take creamed spinach over a spinach salad any day, and I’m team salad all the way. His favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner is the mashed potatoes, whereas I’…
Have you ever made homemade hollandaise sauce? I won’t judge if you say no. This classic French sauce is an emulsion of egg yolks, melted butter, lemon juice, and cayenne pepper. For YEARS, it was something I only ate on eggs Benedict at brunch r…

I look forward to Super Bowl Sunday every year. Not for the big game…but for the snacks. If you’re anything like me, you start planning your snack spread weeks in advance. Maybe you’re making guacamole, deviled eggs, or buffalo cauliflower. Those are a…
Super Bowl snacks are the best part of any Super Bowl party! Ok, for many people, the football is a highlight too, but I think we can all agree that the snacks are still important. To help you celebrate this year’s big game, I’ve rounded up…
Every January, I have the same goal: to eat lots of vegetables. For the first few weeks, it’s easy. I get a kick of New Year’s energy and toss together salads and blend up smoothies on repeat. The fact that it’s ten degrees outside doesn’t phase me. Bu…
The weather app is forecasting single digits in Chicago next week. I can’t say I’m looking forward to the ultra-cold temps, but I am excited to cozy up in the kitchen and make a big pot of soup. My carrot ginger soup, to be specific. I first shared thi…
Part of my job is cooking. A lot! While I love all the recipes I publish, I can’t say that every single one makes it into my regular rotation. Sometimes I’m just too busy testing new recipes to keep revisiting old ones. But every once in a while, I fin…

Right now, my kitchen smells amazing. The rich, warm aroma of ginger, molasses, brown sugar, and cinnamon is wafting through the air. To me, it smells like Christmas. This tantalizing scent comes courtesy of my chewy molasses cookies, which are current…
If I’ve learned one thing from hosting Thanksgiving over the years, it’s this: Thanksgiving appetizers are essential. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve served a holiday meal 30 minutes or an hour (or two) later than planned b…

A fall salad is my favorite way to show off the season’s best produce. Summer’s tomatoes and sweet corn may be gone, but spicy arugula, crisp apples, sweet potatoes, squash, and more are here in abundance. What better way to enjoy them than…

My drink of the summer has been an iced strawberry matcha latte—not one I get at Starbucks, but one I make at home. This viral latte has three layers: macerated strawberries at the bottom, milk in the middle (I like almond), and frothy matcha green tea…
Vegetable side dishes are often my favorite part of dinner. No offense to the main course, but I find that vegetable side dishes are what make the meal fun. They add a pop of color, fresh flavor, and variety to the table. Even basic roasted broccoli is…
