March 27, 2018 By Holly 3 Comments

I’m heading in to a busy week of work, kid activities, and getting ready for the Easter holiday. In the midst of all of the chaos, I need easy recipes that are full of flavor, healthy, and can be on the table in under an hour. I’ve long been a fan of weeknight meals using roasted chicken because of it’s amazing versatility and recently developed this recipe for Roasted Chicken with Romesco that has quickly become a family favorite. Roast Chicken with Romesco

Easy Romesco Sauce

March 13, 2018 By Holly 6 Comments

As I’ve become more comfortable in the kitchen over the years, I’ve realized that a really good sauce can take a simple meal and make it into something really spectacular. A great pesto, a simple pan sauce, or just a great vinaigrette is often the difference between just okay and wow. Recently, I’ve been enamored with Spanish Romesco. Typically made with tomatoes and almonds, our Easy Romesco Sauce takes little more than 5 minutes with a food processor and some easily accessible ingredients you probably already have in your pantry.

A Moveable Feast: Beer Braised Brisket

June 27, 2017 By Lane 7 Comments

Beer Braised Brisket

Signature cocktails.  Eight courses.  Ten friends.  This is the perfect recipe for an Epic Dinner Party, which we’ve aptly named “A Moveable Feast”.  The ten of us pair up to host nights filled with great food, great friends and tons of laughter.  This fabulous tradition started by two of our colleagues, brings us all to the table to share our common love…food!  The first time we hosted this dinner we chose a menu of comfort foods we loved (to see that menu click here).  This time around we went with a Southern theme.  Like this Beer Braised Brisket, served in a basket complete with a red gingham liner (just like at your favorite Southern BBQ joint!).  …

Salted Caramel Sauce

October 3, 2016 By Lane 8 Comments

Salted Caramel Sauce

I have been making salted caramel sauce for several years now.  One year I even gave it as Christmas gifts for my friends and family.  (I love homemade gifts-both giving and receiving!) But what everyone didn’t know is that the recipe that I had been using was unreliable.  Some days the recipe would work for me…some days the recipe turned into a yellow, gritty mess.  I went through a lot of ingredients and wasted a lot of time.  Until I discovered this recipe for Salted Caramel Sauce by Sally’s Baking Addiction!…

Flank Steak with Chimichurri Sauce

June 3, 2016 By Lane 9 Comments

Flank Steak with Chimichurri

As Holly has alluded to many times in Good Food Reads, I love chimichurri.  Love is probably an understatement.  If I could only pick one condiment to eat for the rest of my life it would be chimichurri.  I put it on everything.  In fact, it is possible that I may or not have eaten it directly from the spoon. So honestly, flank steak with chimichurri is at the top of my list of foods I want to share with you.  And going into a beautiful summer weekend, this is perfect for your grill!…

Salmon with Lemon and Dill

March 7, 2016 By Lane 2 Comments

Salmon Butter Dill

I was once afraid of making fish.  Very, very afraid of making fish.  I was even afraid of buying fish (unless at a restaurant of course)!  It seemed like such a mystery!  But then my daughter, who was a super picky eater, starting ordering salmon in restaurants (She was about 6, and shunned most kid foods)  I cannot count the number of strange looks we got from waitstaff.  As you can imagine, this got expensive fast.  At about the same time I bought a cookbook (sense a recurring theme here?) that had a salmon orzo salad in it that looked amazing.  This was all happening around the time that I was just learning to cook and I have to admit, I was initially at a loss.  But all roads pointed to learning to cook salmon at home, so that is what I did….
