To celebrate what would have been Julia Child's 108th birthday and to honor the end of the blueberry season, today I made an adaptation of Julia Child's Blueberry Clafoutis. I am fortunate to live in South Jersey, close to Hammonton which is considered the Fresh Blueberry Capital of the world. It seems this season's mid-July … Continue reading Blueberry Clafoutis

Hurricane Isaias Zucchini and Squash Blossom Galette
Tuesday didn't go quite as planned. Hurricane Isaias was moving up the coast and rain was predicted throughout the day, so instead of working in the garden, I planned on making this delicious Zucchini and Squash Blossom Galette and writing up the recipe for the blog. The dough was already thawed and rolled out into … Continue reading Hurricane Isaias Zucchini and Squash Blossom Galette
Adorable Heirloom Tomato Tarts
I've had these cute 4" removable bottom tart pans for 2 years and I have never used them! The Sunrise Bumblebee heirloom tomatoes I started from seed in March are becoming abundant in my garden and New York Times Cooking featured an Heirloom Tomato Tart earlier this week. I could not resist. I adapted this … Continue reading Adorable Heirloom Tomato Tarts
Sopes with Refried Beans & Denver Style Green Chili Gravy
Happy Easter everyone! I know most people don't think of Mexican food when Easter rolls around, but 1) it's my family's favorite cuisine, 2) my niece Audra will be here and she loves our Denver Style Green Chili Gravy, 3) we're feeling a bit homesick for Denver right now and we have a quart of … Continue reading Sopes with Refried Beans & Denver Style Green Chili Gravy
Paleo Sweet Potato Waffle Buns
Okay y'all, I'm on a 7 day cleanse. Cleanses are not typically conducive to enjoying galettes! But these Paleo Sweet Potato Waffles are not quite a galette and are completely cleanse approved. Summer is coming so I thought I would so a mini gut reset and I ordered a 7 day bone broth cleanse from … Continue reading Paleo Sweet Potato Waffle Buns
Asparagus, Bacon & Herbes de Provence Cheese
Last night I had a dream that I was a contestant in some sort of cooking competition and had only a few minutes to shop and collect my ingredients. I needed cilantro and celery (I have no idea what I was about to create) but all of the herbs and celery leaves in front of … Continue reading Asparagus, Bacon & Herbes de Provence Cheese
Cranberry Sauce
Sure, America needs this condiment to cut through our rich, buttery Thanksgiving meal and cleanse our palates, but isn't it also what makes the leftover turkey sandwich amazing? I think so! As a side note, we also spread our Cacia's Bakery rolls with this Chipotle Goat Cheese Spread a la Pati Jinich. The combination of … Continue reading Cranberry Sauce
Turkey Bone Broth
This is the base of so many of our Thanksgiving Feast dishes as well as the soup which inevitably follows. We actually make this twice each holiday- once the day before Thanksgiving with the neck and giblets (not the liver) and any leftover chicken bones we store every time we roast a chicken (which is … Continue reading Turkey Bone Broth
Sage & Citrus Butter
One of my favorite ways to preserve my summer garden herbs is in a compound butter. These butters will keep in the freezer throughout the winter and into the spring (that is, if you don't eat them before spring!). My sage plant was incredible this year! I didn't think it was coming back at all … Continue reading Sage & Citrus Butter
Spicy Sage Breakfast Sausage
I grew up on Jimmy Dean Sausage. Let's face it, it's delicious! But now that I am more concerned about what's in my food, about what the animals that I eat ate and how they were treated, I need a replacement. I've been testing recipes for my own breakfast sausage for a couple of years … Continue reading Spicy Sage Breakfast Sausage
