Ravioli with sage butter sauce

This was something very new for my somewhat difficult family – and everyone loved it. I used two different kinds of fresh ravioli from the store. The sage had the most interesting texture and was so good. The pecans were also a great addition.

the best classic deviled eggs

I LOVE this recipe, it’s my favorite with just a few changes to make it kid-friendly: white vinegar instead of apple cider vinegar and yellow mustard instead of Dijon. This is a great basic recipe, thank you so much for providing it.

Creamy Mushroom Pasta

This mushroom pasta is to die for!!!! We used umami, shiitake and baby Bella mushrooms and pappardelle pasta. My kids were as obsessed with it as I was. We will 100% do it again.

avocado stuffed eggs

I used to never eat hard-boiled eggs unless they were in a salad, much less straight deviled eggs. Texture issues. These eggs are amazing! The bacon gives it texture. Pair it with reading Dr. Seuss’ “Green Eggs and Ham” for kids. Spicy, coriander, damn delicious!!!

Clams with Garlic Butter and Creamy White Wine Sauce

Garlic Shrimp and Avocado Crostini

Really delicious. I substituted chopped cilantro for the parsley and spread spicy guacamole on the toast before topping with the shrimp mixture to prevent the liquid from softening the toast. Fantastic for a cocktail – or breakfast – or anytime!

warm spinach and artichoke dip

I really loved this recipe and plan to make it often. Some of these dips are dry or tasteless, but not really delicious! This recipe starts with the flavor, garlic. The only thing I changed was the spinach. I used fresh spinach, much less hassle and great flavor. Thanks for this awesome recipe.

Garlic and Rosemary Lamb Chops

I made these last night and they were a success! Loved the marinade – totally added flavor. Normally I just season them and throw them under the grill, but marinating them and searing them on the stovetop took it to another level.
