Now hear me out on this one, I know that curry and roast chicken are not exactly two things that you may think of together. But I can assure you they are a match made in heaven. Using just a few tablespoons of curry paste (not powder and not sauce) […]
Kid Friendly
Pumpkin Spice “Nice”cream
When my British husband first moved to Texas a few years ago he was a little baffled about the overwhelming obsession everyone in Texas seemed to have with the Fall season. Especially when it meant families dragging their sweater wearing toddlers to pumpkin patches for photos in 90 degree heat. […]
Maple Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Fall Veggies
I know that fall doesn’t officially start until September 22nd but y’all, I. am. ready. This year’s Texas summer has seemed especially restricting with all the COVID related closures of indoor activities. I am ready for some cooler weather and safe outdoor fun, especially for the kids. And most importantly, […]
Perfect Pesto
My mother is without a doubt our family’s queen gardener and when her basil plants went crazy this year it seemed like pesto was simply meant to be. And so it was. Homemade pesto is one of my husband’s favorite things in the world to eat so you can imagine […]
Skillet White Cheddar Mac-n-Cheese
Growing up for me meant that macaroni and cheese came from a blue cardboard box (sorry mom). And to be completely honest, I still think back on that powdery cheesy mess quite fondly. But had I known how easy it was to make your own homemade macaroni and cheese with […]

Chicken & broccoli spaghetti squash boats
Does anyone remember those delicious casseroles our moms used to make with chicken, broccoli, and the ever present cans of cream of mushroom soup? Well I do, and they were delicious. This equally delicious, albeit healthier take on the classic casserole has all of the comfort of the original with […]
Whipped Ricotta Toast
I honestly feel a bit silly for writing this up into a blog post because it is such a simple thing to make but when I posted a picture of some whipped ricotta toast that I made on instagram the other day the people went nuts for it. And for […]
The Best Tzatziki
This Taztziki sauce is one of my favorite summer condiments and itβs pretty darn good for you to boot. A combination of Greek yogurt, cucumber, fresh herbs, lemon and olive oil make this the perfect accompaniment to grilled meats, flatbreads and fresh veggies. I love serving it with my lamb […]
Pulled Pork Sandwiches with Homemade BBQ Sauce & Cole Slaw
I’m aware that probably every food blogger, and especially every food blogger from Texas, is convinced that their pulled pork recipe is the best. But ya’ll, this one is GOOD. Honestly I think it’s about as good as you can get without investing in a fancy smoker and you can […]
