Happy 4th of July! I absolutely love this holiday – I love the pomp and circumstance, the fireworks, the Americana nostalgia of it, and of course… eating delicious cookout food outside while drinking a yard beer. And what goes better with all of that than fried chicken? Earlier this week, I shared my Classic Creamy …
It’s almost the 4th of July and that means summer BBQs are in full swing! I love a good cookout and preparing all the warm weather foods. A burger cooked on the grill with a thick slice of a garden tomato, a frosty cold yard beer, and of course – the sides. I always have …
Hello friends! It’s been a minute since I’ve posted on here because well, I don’t really know why. I’ve been struggling with motivation – mostly because I have so many fun ideas for this blog and brand that I don’t know where to start so I procrastinate instead. Ha! Very productive, I know. But I’m …
Hello friends and happy weekend! I hope you are all having a great start to your April! It’s not quite warm enough to be Farmer’s Market season here in Colorado but I am loving all of the Spring produce in the grocery stores right now. Even though it is technically Springtime, it’s still a little …

Happy Thursday! It’s three days until St. Patrick’s Day and I’m here to share another traditional Irish recipe with you all! I grew up eating corned beef and cabbage every St. Paddy’s Day (I still do) and I didn’t come across Guinness stew until I was an adult but I’m so glad I did. It …
Happy St. Patrick’s week! I’m so excited to share a few of my favorite Irish and Irish-inspired recipes with you this year. I have a lot of Irish heritage on both sides, so I grew up celebrating St. Paddy’s every year and it has become one of my very favorite holidays. Growing up, my dad …
Hello friends! I hope everyone is having a splendid start to their March. This has always been one of my favorite months. The air always feels so crisp in March – It’s still a little wintery but you can start to see those hints of Spring. Early Spring flowers are my favorite and one of …
I created the recipe for these kofta-style meatballs several years ago as a healthy, weeknight go-to dinner. I love Middle Eastern style cuisine so when I learned about kofta kebabs, I knew I wanted to research their history. Kofta is a type of “meatball” with origins in the Mediterranean and Middle East and is, many …
Happy Valentine’s Day, friends! I know this holiday gets a lot of flak, but I have always loved Valentine’s Day. It’s just such a sweet, fun holiday that can be spent celebrating with a significant other, celebrating with friends, or just a day to treat yourself. I love everything about this cute day – the …
