Back in the days of owning a cooking school, I was always looking for a reliable yet tasty appetizer that would come together quickly (always important when your joint is BYOB).

Just because you’re cooking for one doesn’t mean you don’t deserve a nice breakfast. This Dutch Baby for One comes together in a flash!

Power through your day with this delish dish. It’s got loads of different components to keep your taste buds happy. Crunchy, chewy, tangy, and even a touch sweet, this will fill you up but not drag you down.

In honor of my website launch, I’m bringing this good ‘n back from the Archives! It’s one of my original recipes from November 2020. Enjoy!

If you’re looking for the perfectly hearty holiday appetizer, go no further than the Spiced Pork tenderloin on toasts - with a trick for maximum flavor!

In April’s free class for AARP, we made this really delicious and oh-so-tangy Greek Yogurt Panna Cotta. It’s the same vibe as a regular custard, but no eggs, so you’re free to taste as you go!

I’m delighted to announce that I’ll be working with the fab folks at AARP Maryland again in 2023, and I couldn’t be more excited!!

Mom passed very early on Thanksgiving morning, being cradled by my brothers and me… She was oh so loved, and as far as deaths go, it was a good one.

Those who have witnessed it understand: the rally is perhaps the cruelest part of the dying process, as Christine beautifully illustrates.

It’s weird, knowing that your mom is dying when she’s not aware. Sure, she’s awake and talking and still eating and drinking and we’ve told her many times, but…

My green beer at 7am days are long gone, and now I celebrate by… eating potatoes.

What’s better for a weeknight than a sheet pan dinner?! Minimal cleanup, delicious, and the oven does all the hard work!

Refreshing and with a light bite, you don’t have to be a “whiskey drinker” to enjoy the classic whiskey sour.

Easy, tasty, healthy, and perfect for one or two (with minimal clean-up!). I like to serve this with a lovely farro on the side.

I’m throwing it back to the late aughts with one of my favorite go-to cocktails: the French Martini.

This super tasty recipe uses turkey thighs for a rich, healthier chili full of flavor!

Tis the season for a frosty cocktail, with minty liqueur and topped with chopped candy canes.

Need a little help smoothing out the rough edges this holiday season? Never fear; the Cranberry Mule is here, so let’s have a cocktail!

This quick and easy cranberry relish will be a super hit on your Thanksgiving table! It's bright and citrusy, with savory partners in shallots and scallions.
