There is something so cozy and wonderful about fall. All those perfect, crisp days filled with changing leaves and sunshine are the stuff of instagram dreams, right? Well, admittedly today is a bit of a bummer weather wise (it’s cool and rainy here in Minnesota), but the forecast is looking up and I’m diving into my fall favorites for this week’s Good Food Reads: Fall Friday Five. Come along!

Salt and Vinegar Roasted Chickpeas
Despite my love of baking, when it comes to snacks, I am generally a salty/crunchy kind of snack girl. Donuts, cookies, cake? I can take them or leave them most days. But set out a bowl of chips and salsa or a piping hot batch of french fries and I am ALL OVER IT. Lately, I’ve been loving these Salt and Vinegar Roasted Chickpeas.

GFR: A Cozy Friday Five
Hey Friends! It seems overnight, the cold arrived in Minnesota. I celebrated my birthday this past weekend with a string of gorgeous (and hot!) 90 degree days. It felt like summer’s last big hurrah and we soaked it up. Monday afternoon, the storms rolled in and so did the cool weather. While I’ve been looking forward to some crisper fall evenings, I can’t say I’m loving this chilly, damp, rainy business. Since I’m also trying to cultivate a daily gratitude practice, I figured I would make the focus for this week’s Friday Five all about my favorite cozy things.

Honey Harissa Chicken Wings
If you’ve been reading our blog for a while, you might know that I used to be a vegetarian. I stopped eating meat in middle school and didn’t venture back into omnivore land until just before I got married. After so many years without meat, I definitely still have no problems with a veggie heavy diet but I do have a confession to make: I totally regret missing out on years of bacon and chicken wings. Yes, that’s right. I missed out on nearly 15 years of chicken wings and I’m now on a quest to make up for it.

Good Food Reads: Back to School Friday Five!
Is everyone surviving the craziness of back to school and the end of summer? I don’t know about you, but the last few weeks have been a bit of a whirlwind full of last summer trips, school prep, and soaking up the final bit of really warm weather and fresh produce! Though summer still technically as a few weeks to go, with school starting here in a few days, it feels like fall is upon us. Our Good Food Reads this week is celebrating the five things I’m loving as we head Back to School!

Curried Cauliflower Quinoa Salad
Hey friends! The end of summer has been a little crazy here at With Two Spoons so we are taking the week off from our kitchens and revisiting some of our favorite recipes of days past. I’ve been loving this Curried Cauliflower Quinoa Salad for easy, portable lunches these days. If you haven’t tried it before, read on and give it a try the next time you’re in the mood for a great, flavor packed lunch or side dish.

I’ve always been a voracious reader (and eater, truth be told) and when e-readers first came out, I swore up and down that nothing – nothing! – would ever replace a physical book in my mind. I loved the feel of them in my hand, the smell of the paper, and seeing them stacked up on my bookshelves. Well, fast forward a few short years later and my kindle is one of my very favorite things. I love having so many books at my fingertips and not having to carry so many heavy books when I travel. The one thing it hasn’t replaced? My cookbooks. I will confess that I probably have a bit of a cookbook addiction. I love them. I read them like novels, pouring over the beautiful photos and stuffing bits of colorful post-it notes onto the pages of recipes I want to try. Growing up, my grandmother had the most impressive collection of cookbooks I’ve ever seen and I’m fairly certain my love of cookbooks comes straight from her. Some of the best books her in collection? Small town church cookbooks. Those little gems are filled with home cooking treasures and I love to read them for inspiration from fellow home cooks. This week’s recipe for Curried Cauliflower Quinoa Salad was inspired by a recipe for curried cauliflower I found in just such a cookbook. …
Good Food Reads: Friday Five
Hey foodie friends, it’s that time again. I’m back with another round of Good Food Reads and this time (telling some internet truth here) life has been a little crazy lately so I’m taking a cue from some blogger friends and this week’s Good Food Reads is a simple roundup of five things I’m loving, reading, and thinking about lately.

Lemon Cardamom Skillet Monkey Bread
Is there anyone out there who doesn’t love monkey bread? I mean, there is just something so dang good about about it. It’s a gooey, sugary, buttery carbohydrate filled brunch classic that I love to make and love to eat. Growing up, my mom often made it in a simple bundt pan, coating each piece of biscuit dough with plenty of butter, sugar, and cinnamon so that when it came out of the oven, it was like mini-cinnamon roll heaven. A few years ago, I started making it in my cast iron skillet. I loved the cripsy edges it created and really loved the easy clean up and presentation of the skillet. Recently, I decided to change up the bread itself and this Lemon Cardamom Skillet Monkey Bread was born.

Good Food Reads: Links I Love
Things are going to be a little different over here for this week’s Good Food Reads. While I’ve still got some great recipe links for you, we thought it might be fun to share a few other things we are loving and so I’ve collected some of my current favorite foodie, lifestyle, and even (gasp!) fashion loves into one, fun spot. This weeks Good Food Reads is all about Links I Love.

The Hugo Spritz
If you follow With Two Spoons on Instagram and watched our stories last week, you might have seen a little oops moment that occurred when I was trying to photograph a new drink recipe. For those who missed it, I accidentally knocked over a full drink (ugh!) onto a marble pastry slab and shattered the wine glass, spilled the drink, and tipped over a nearly full bottle of prosecco onto my carpet. It was most definitely not one of my finer moments, but in the end, the drink was well worth it. Friends, meet your new summer drink: The Hugo Spritz.
