Game Day Nachos
It’s the Super Bowl this Sunday, it’s hard to believe that last year’s Super Bowl was one of the last group gatherings we’d attend for more than a year. It goes without saying that watching Super Bowl LV is going to be a more intimate affair, but just because we’re foregoing the party, doesn’t mean…

Strawberry Basil Crostini
I put out a poll on Instagram stories over the weekend to let you, my audience, determine what I would make for the blog this week. I gave four options, main, salad, snack, or brunch. Well the people have spoken and “snack” eked out “salad” for the people’s choice award this week. Your wish is…
Goat’s Cheese Stuffed Dates with Pistachios & Pomegranate
I’m not always extra but when someone asks me to bring a “snack” to a party, you can bet your bottom dollar I’m not showing up with a bag of plain Ruffles.

Apple & Blue Cheese Tartlets with Icewine Glaze
