Dirty Martini Feta DiP
I love this as an appetizer. I’ve always aspired to be a sophisticate martini drinker, but alas, it’s just not me. But I do love this dirty martini dip that’s all the things you’d love about a martini - without the booze - and plus cheese. What could be wrong with that?
Fennel Rhubarb Tequila Lemonade
This is one of my favorite drinks in a long time. One part adult lemonade, one part pink margarita. A nice mix of both and entirely elegant and sophisticated. A great cocktail to add to your spring rotation or for a signature cocktail entertaining.
Herb Compote Butter
This compote butter is so fun to make for the week or for a dinner party. I love taking fresh herbs (think basil, tarragon, parsley, or mint) and mix with softened butter and a bit of Parmesan cheese (for fun, of course!). Serve in a nice dish and serve with bread or melt and toss with pasta.
Pea & Herb Farrotto
Elevate your dinner game with this creamy pea farrotto, a wholesome take on risotto made with hearty farro and sweet green peas. Packed with fiber, plant-based protein, and springtime flavor, this elevated meal is perfect for vegetarians and anyone craving a healthy, comforting dish. Finished with lemon zest and fresh herbs for a bright, vibrant finish.
Bubbly Fondue with Charcuterie, Market Vegetables & Pretzel Bites
There is nothing I don’t love about dunking “good” for you ingredients into cheese laden with wine or in this case, sparkling wine. Dump extra hard, this is not your parent’s fondue recipe.
The World's Best Cranberry Sauce

Three Pea Soup
Easter = spring. These are the only three recipes you need for tackling spring cooking. Simple, impressive and oh so chic.
