Endive Blue Cheese Salad
Elegance on a plate. Endives signal fancy and while this is neither fancy nor fancy to make it sure looks it. It's like buying something at T.J. Maxx and everything thinking it's designer. Let them believe.
Fried Egg Tortillas
Few things scream breakfast more than fried eggs atop a tortilla. It's the perfect pantry breakfast for a cold winter weekend.
Cauliflower Parsnip Soup with Seared Scallops
This two-ingredient soup will transform the way you look at eating healthy. Enjoy the natural creaminess of pureed cauliflower and parsnip with crispy thyme and savory scallops. This dish is the epitome of healthy comfort food.
“Everything” Salmon with Sherry Spinach Salad
Who doesn’t love a little taste of an “Everything Bagel” for dinner? It is little this all-in-one-spice can’t do. Pair with a zippy salad composed of heart-healthy spinach, shallots, and sherry (or use any vinegar on hand!). It feels fancy but it’s quicker than toasting a bagel and shmearing with cream cheese, promise.
Seared Eggplant Toasts
I love spur-of-the-moment recipes. What's great about this is that it's a fast lunch or dinner that feels fancy... because, who ever makes eggplant on-the-fly (that's a restaurant term :)). You do, lady friend.
One Pan Chicken
I love this recipe. To me, the aroma of roast chicken symbolizes home, family and love. What’s even better is that ingredients can be substituted for shallots, lemon and garlic. Or make it a party and invite all the ingredients – and your friends.
