Don’t know what to do with your harvest of Thai basil? This Thai Basil Pesto is full of great Asian flavors and is a unique and flavorful variation on a traditional pesto. It’s perfect on soba noodles or on top of fish or seafood. When I worked in Boston, my coworkers and I frequented a…
Summertime Grilled Pizzas
One of my favorite things about living in California is all the amazing grocery stores. I’ve had trouble in some of the places we’ve lived in finding anything healthy, fresh or even remotely “exotic” (I once couldn’t find limes in Oklahoma). Recently I discovered an amazing supermarket right down the road from our new neighborhood!…
Carne Asada Pizza
I love fun pizzas. Pepperoni is boring. Combos like Thai Chicken Pizza, Tostada Pizza, and Apple, Bacon & Gouda Pizza are more my style. Nick made his famous Carne Asada and we had a bunch leftover. Pizza is one of the best ways to transform leftovers, and since I hadn’t made pizza in a while,…
Chicken Broccoli Calzones
Nick goes through phases on what he likes to eat for lunch. Currently, he is sick of sandwiches and only wants dinner leftovers. Which is hard considering a 4-serving meal barely feeds two of us and leftovers are hard to come by! One night I was going to make pizza for us, when I realized…
Cheeseburger Pizza
I’m taking a little break from cookies today! I promise I’m not cookied-out yet, I just happen to have a few non-cookie recipes to share as well! Like delicious Cheeseburger Pizza. It’s a cheeseburger. On a pizza. What’s not to like, right? Nick got his second deer of the year, so we’ve been busy using…
Apple, Bacon & Gouda Pizza
If you loved my Fall Harvest Pizza as much as I did, here’s another great seasonal pie! Every time I make pizza at home I’m reminded how freaking delicious it is. Probably one of my favorite foods, and so versatile! You could pretty much put anything on a pizza and it would taste good. Including…
Fall Harvest Pizza
Halloween has come and gone, but fall is far from over! This pizza is brimming with all the best flavors of the season! I’ve been drooling over this pizza for weeks. First of all: sage pesto. SAGE. Pesto. Is this not a genius idea? Next: butternut squash. We all know how much I love pumpkin…
Pasta with Scallops, Shrimp and Basil
Nick and I spent this past weekend in Pensacola. Obviously no trip to Pensacola is complete without a trip to our favorite fish market. I needed some beach in my life in a major way. Unfortunately, Nick gets really bored at the beach. He lasted all of 1.5 hours. But… that was probably a blessing…
