There’s a reason why every generation has its own version of a New York, New York theme song (hello, Frank Sinatra & Alicia Keys). This is a city that basically has everything you could ever want. Between the parks, the people, the food, the museums, etc. this concrete jungle leaves very little to be craved….
It’s moving week! We’re moving out of the building that we’ve lived in for the last four years. And, in an effort to move as easily as possible, I’ve challenged myself to cook with only the ingredients I have buried in my cabinets. That means, NO food shopping. In digging through my pantry, I discovered…
Ah, the temperature has finally dropped, there’s a chill in the air, and all your favorite shows are back — including football. Now, I’m not necessarily the first one to know what’s going on on the football field but, what I do know is that it’s fall and I love all the food associated with…

Not to quote Drake or anything, but this butternut squash soup is the best I’ve ever had. It’s rich, has a slight hint of coconut milk (hello, dairy free!), and packed with flavor. Not to mention, it’s so easy to make. It basically cooks itself, (but make sure you take the credit!). How to make…
End of the year sales are good for many reasons. One being, you get to buy what you really want (you know you’ve been eyeing that Le Creuset pan). And, secondly, for those you still haven’t sent gifts to, you can now buy them half price. Almost every retailer is having a sale — some…

With only just a few ingredients, that are likely already in your pantry, this authentic Italian dish will turn heads on its way to the dinner…
We eat chicken thighs in our house at least twice a week. In my opinion, they are the juiciest part of the chicken and in turn the most flavorful. And, when you get that krispy skin, well, there’s simply nothing better. This easy oven baked chicken recipe is the kind of dish you make when…
