Stuffing Bread

November 9, 2013 by Cate 20 Comments

All the flavors of your favorite Thanksgiving stuffing baked into a loaf of bread!

Yes, you read that title correctly – Stuffing Bread! A loaf of bread that tastes just like your favorite Thanksgiving stuffing. Wow. When I saw this recipe on King Arthur Flour, I knew I HAD to make it for TheBetterHalf. He is a stuffing fanatic. Whenever we talk about Thanksgiving, all he can focus on is stuffing. But I have never actually made stuffing for him. See he likes his grandmothers special stuffing recipe, and I really can’t compete with that. But a loaf of bread that tastes like stuffing? That I can do! And it definitely gets his seal of approval. He declared this his favorite bread that I have ever made. Gold star for me!…

Butternut Squash Potstickers with Sriracha Ginger Dipping Sauce

November 7, 2013 by Cate 18 Comments

I am a huge fan of butternut squash. I get so excited when I see it popping up all over markets and on restaurant menus in the fall. I like to buy the packages of precut cubes. It just seems much safer to me…every time I take the giant chef’s knife to a whole butternut squash I come perilously close to losing a finger.

Usually we just roast our butternut squash – toss it in some olive oil, salt and pepper and roast for 20 mins at 400 degrees. Simple and delicious. But I decided to branch out with my latest butternut squash purchase and make potstickers. Wow. Amazing. New favorite recipe! This was my first time making potstickers and I have to say, I was pretty darn proud of myself. Look at these beauties! I was pretty much dancing around the apartment when they were finished. …

These baked Cinnamon Roll Donuts, drizzled with cream cheese icing, give you all the delicious cinnamon roll flavor without the hassle of baking cinnamon rolls!

According to this handy little website, it is Donut / Doughnut Appreciation Day! I know there is a National Donut Day in June, but I fully support having two days a year when we can celebrate the mighty Donut. If you follow my blog regularly, you probably think that I celebrate donuts on a weekly basis. I have been obsessed with making them ever since I bought this amazing donut pan! I decided that I had to celebrate this holiday with baked Cinnamon Roll Donuts with Cream Cheese Icing….

Creamy Tomato Orzo Soup made with Greek Yogurt

November 2, 2013 by Cate 32 Comments

Creamy Tomato Orzo Soup made with Greek Yogurt is rich and hearty, yet light thanks to the yogurt. It is so delicious and comforting – a perfect winter soup!

Soup season is officially here again! I love to eat soup all year round, but I definitely take a break from making it in the warmer months. Who wants to stand over a hot stove for an hour when it is 80 degrees outside? But now that fall is here and the temperatures are dropping, it is time to get back on the soup making bandwagon! First up this season for me is Creamy Tomato Orzo soup made with Greek Yogurt! It is so rich and creamy, but you don’t have to feel guilty eating it because the creaminess comes from yogurt, not cream! …
