People often ask me how I got into food. It's a complicated question, but one of the reasons is definitely because of my dad. No, he's not an accomplished home cook or an obsessive food lover. Exactly the opposite, really. The list of foods he doesn't like is crazily long, and includes but is not ...
Snap Pea Salad with Blood Orange, Goat Cheese & Honey Tarragon Vinaigrette
I recently started serving all our salads with little ramekins of his and hers cheese on the side. I know it sounds weird and fussy, but hear me out. Alex is very picky about cheese. Basically, he only likes three of them: mozzarella, Swiss, and Parmesan. I, on the other hand, have literally never ...
Shakshuka Soup with Swiss Chard
If you ask me, the best part of shakshuka is the SAUCE, so why not eat a giant bowl of it? A few weeks ago, we drove to Connecticut to have brunch with a group of old friends. We all know each other from our single days in Brooklyn, and now we are all married or about-to-be-married, and have ...
Toffee White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies (Whole Foods Copycat)
I work in the city two days a week, and often at lunchtime I wander the aisles of Whole Foods. My office is right next to Madison Square Garden, and the streets are always crowded with traffic and the sidewalks are flooded with tourists. Whole Foods, with its pristine pyramids of organic fruit and ...
Pesto Chicken Polenta Bowls with Burst Tomatoes
Well hello! Long time no see. I can't believe it's been over a week since my last post. But what a week! For starters, Owen was sick and stayed home from school. I don't know about other mom bloggers, but I basically find it impossible to test recipes or take photos while simultaneously being in ...
Greek Yogurt Blue Cheese Dressing
We are moving on Sunday (eeek!) and a few weeks ago, while running house-related errands, we stopped for a quick bite at a family-friendly pub in our new neighborhood. Owen had chicken fingers and fries, and Alex and I shared two beers and a plate of wings. By which I mean, Alex ate a whole ...
Roasted Red Pepper Pepperoni Sauce
A long time ago, my mom gave me some really good advice about healthy eating. She said if you're craving chocolate, don't eat a chocolate chip cookie or a chocolate donut, eat some chocolate! What she meant was, don't waste calories on the surrounding ingredients if you're really only in it for ...
Marble Rye Pound Cake
What if a marble pound cake and a marble rye got married? Deep thoughts, guys. Last week, I was emailing with my friend Meredith about home decorating. She has such a great sense of style, and I...don't. I have a very specific creative skill set, and that is food. Outside of the kitchen, I'm at ...
Eggs Florentine Grain Bowls with Yogurt Hollandaise
My friend Molly first introduced me to eggs Florentine years ago, when we used to regularly have brunch at the Cornelia Street Cafe in the West Village. I was never a fan of eggs Benedict (I just don't see the appeal of Canadian bacon at all. Tell me, am I missing something?), but eggs ...
Chocolate Cherry Goat Cheese Truffles (Gluten-Free)
Let's hear it for Galentine's Day! ? ? ? When I was in high school, every year around Valentine's Day there was a carnation sale for local charities. The flowers were $1 each, and you bought them in advance and "sent" them to other students--your boyfriend or girlfriend, your ...
