Coating your Thanksgiving bird in a mayonnaise mixture seals in moisture and creates a beautifully-seasoned crust for your holiday entertaining. Add the traditional side dishes and no one will ever know the secret … unless you decide it needs to be shared!
Fusion cuisine meets morning meals in this simple poached eggs dish that swaps seasoned broth for a richly-seasoned sauce inspired by Italian and Indian cooking. Another in our on-going focus on making sure breakfast is something to celebrate.
As a special end to a busy week, I'm sharing an article that a dear friend sent my way. He knows I'm a breakfast nut, so finding 50 of the world's best breakfasts, complete with photographs, absolutely made my day. I hope it does the same for you and inspires you to consider something new for breakfast or brunch this weekend.
Sweet potatoes in burritos? Oh, you bet! Offsetting spicy sausage with roasted sweet potatoes is a fantastic combination that is perfect for fall. Nestle them, along with a bevy of other great ingredients, into flour tortillas and you've got a top-rate dinner plan.
Part of the autumn season involves incorporating pumpkin into recipes both sweet and savory. So hot, crumbly scones studded with chocolate and packed with pumpkin are a lovely addition to the cravings of the festive breakfast season.
Having a youngster around doesn't mean gourmet food no longer has a home. It does, however, mean that introducing gourmet food should involve flexibility and creativity. And sometimes, it involves finding the right kind of cuisine to blend into fusion offerings.
Pumpkin waffles are easy to put together and help add an element of festivity to any weekend breakfast. Although this time of year inspires me to make large, fancy brunches featuring waffles like these, scones or muffins, egg dishes and bacon or sausage. Then, I don't eat for the rest of the day!
Another batch of apples means an apple cake that's bursting with the flavors of fall. Maple syrup, cinnamon, apples, walnuts and a brandy-caramel sauce come together to make the perfect fall treat. Serve it warm with extra caramel sauce for a perfect ending to any meal.
Time to end the week with something simple and sweet. A lemony cheesecake-inspired bar that's studded with sweet blueberries fits the bill perfectly. Have a lovely weekend!
Fall welcomes soup season. And what better way to greet it than sharing my favorite, super-quick chicken soup base. This serves as the base for nearly all of my favorite chicken soups, from good old fashioned chicken noodle soup to hearty chicken bean florentine and more. Best of all, it's a slow cooker recipe, so you can toss it together and go about your day!
