4.58 16 Published Dec 27, 2023, Updated Oct 04, 2024 I had never actually had Zuppa Toscana soup before, but Maria, one of EBF’s team members is a huge fan of the Olive Garden version and suggested we try our hand at a copycat recipe. And after making it myself I can see why this soup is so popular. It’s creamy, comforting and SO dang flavorful! I can’t wait for you to try this version, which I made dairy-free with coconut cream instead of heavy cream....

Woah, it’s Thanksgiving week. It creeps up on me every year somehow and here we are. Eeeek! Then again, I did work my little tail off last week trying to get ahead a bit so I wouldn’t have so much “extra” to do this week. I plan to take a breath. Slow down. Open my eyes and look around. Enjoy more giggles and snuggles with the kids. And eat ALL the turkey day deliciousness!...

I’m sure most moms can relate. This recipe came about because my kids suddenly stopped liking the previous version. I used to make them zucchini carrot muffins with raisins to take to preschool for lunch (usually with yogurt and some sort of fresh fruit). They loved them. Gobbled them down. I always had some in the freezer. Then M started not to eat hers. She said she didn’t like the raisins in her muffins....

If you’ve been looking for ways to use our bacon olive oil or one of our awesome vinegars, this is the place! If you want, you could use 1/3 cup of bacon olive oil in place of the bacon and then any of the balsamic vinegars would be perfect–I used raspberry and it was SO delicious!...

Now I’m about to say something that could possibly have me stoned by snooty foodies across the blogoshpehere, I don’t really enjoy drinking pomegranate juice. I want to like it because it is SO good for you (more on that in a minute) but I just don’t. I find it strangely over sweet but bitter at the same time. I keep trying to like it because it’s so uber-trendy right now, but I just don’t....

5 6 Published Dec 27, 2018, Updated Nov 16, 2022 When I’m not conscious of it, it’s easy to be wasteful. It’s also easy to fall down the rabbit hole of sustainable living which can be really overwhelming. I’m so inspired by the people who live uber eco-friendly lives — they don’t create any trash, they use reusable sandwich bags (love my Stasher bags, but I buy regular plastic baggies too) and they don’t use paper towels....

I love the mix of the cream cheese and goat cheese, the freshness and brightness from the herbs and the crunch of the sliced radishes served on top of this spread. My mom recreated this recipe after having something similar in a restaurant. We’ve both made it countless times since then. It’s a sure-fire crowd pleaser!...

I discovered crash hot potatoes on The Pioneer Woman years ago and it’s become a fun way to eat baby potatoes. You boil them, smash them, season them, then roast them until they’re craggly and crispy and very delicious. I love mixing up the seasonings, so brushing them with pesto felt right at the time and ended up being very, very right, especially after sprinkling them with mozzarella cheese at the very end and then popping the pan back into the oven for a few minutes so the cheese can get melty and perfect....

Two years ago, our family kind of found our world turned upside-down. It was an unbelievably stressful, scary, unexpected, fish-out-of-water experience. You know, one of those times when you have really fabulous plans and then those plans totally change without your permission? Yeah, it was one of those. On top of everything else, I had a brand-new baby, meaning I wasn’t really going anywhere. So let’s combine emotional trauma and lots of nursing/web-surfing and that is when I discovered Dani and her chicken pot pie....

Ingredient Notes Candy Canes – As a candy cane connoisseur, I suggest Bob’s or Brach’s (they are owned by the same company now) or even the little round star brite/ starlight mints. I would avoid Spangler brand for baking in general because the flavor and texture is far inferior. Candy Cane Sugar – You’ll need a blender or food processor to blend some candy canes with powdered sugar for the coating....

4 12 Published Dec 07, 2015, Updated Jan 30, 2024 There are a few cookie staples that we make year after year (like these almond crescent cookies) but we always try out a few new recipes as well.
