Below are some of my essential, but also unique, kitchen tools. (I am going to assume you have basics like a garlic press and a spatula). But know, we will dive much deeper into tools and setting up your kitchen in the first week of the masterclass! (The below contains affiliate links.) Essential Chef’s Knife […]

Pumpkin honey simple syrup is just the flair we need to get into this fall season! This is not a pumpkin creamer. Or a recipe for a pumpkin spice latte. In most cases, both of those are a little too sweet or a little too heavy for me. I like my coffee black with heavy […]

Homemade BBQ sauce can be so easy and delicious! I know there are great options for store-bought BBQ sauce (and you know I love a good store-bought sauce, hello Rao’s pasta sauce!) but I really like BBQ sauce. I could eat it, like, a lot. Which brings me to my next point, I don’t love […]

We’ve been grilling a lot this summer! Anything to be in the sun and to minimize a kitchen mess is the name of the game. This summer has been, you know, slightly different, due to the global pandemic. What I’ve been grateful for is getting my meat delivered to my doorstep through ButcherBox (this is […]

What could be more fun right now than a beginners bar cart guide?! I am here to help you start enjoying delicious, high-quality cocktails at home.  Cocktails used to be intimidating to me, so I would only enjoy them out at restaurants and I would order like this, “I like something strong, with a little […]

The time has come for a homemade Starbucks Doubleshot recipe (which is now called a Shaken Iced Espresso)! I am going to show you how to make this with a Nespresso machine and with a Moka Express. A few years ago I discovered my new favorite beverage from Starbucks which became a treat-yo-self favorite. It […]

I honestly cannot believe I have deprived you of the best homemade margarita recipe! We’ve been making this for years. If you’ve been to my home, you have definitely been served these margaritas. So many of my friends request them when they come to visit! My favorite part of this margarita is that it has […]

Coconut rice in the Instant Pot is taking the internet by storm! I’ve loved making my rice in the IP but adding a can of coconut milk is next level. It’s creamy, a little sticky and perfect to serve alongside curries, stir fry recipes, or my sticky honey chicken! Bonus: add a pinch of sugar […]

I have been insanely excited to share this recipe with you! This sticky honey chicken recipe is what cravings were made for. And it comes together so fast using just a few staple ingredients. A few weeks ago I was craving Asian food in a big way. Generally my Thai Basil Stir-fry is the perfect […]

This creamy Italian Sausage Pasta was born out of a real intense craving for something hearty, creamy, and insanely savory.   What’s crazy is, I’ve already created this recipe a few years ago. It did not hit me until I was standing at my stove breaking up the sausage and thinking, “This dish feels so familiar. […]
