Heirloom Tomato Salad

My favorite tomato salad this year - made with roasted and ripe tomatoes, capers, mozzarella, almonds, and chives.

Deviled Eggs

A beautiful and delicious deviled eggs made with an herb-flecked filling and topped with toasted almonds.

Perfect Mashed Potatoes with Saffron Garlic Butter

So good. These are the BEST mashed potatoes with buttery peaks, fluffy cloud-like potatoes with saffron garlic butter.

To make simple sautéed zucchini, coins of zucchini are browned in a pan. The thing that makes this version special is the toasted gold slivers of garlic combined with lots of fresh dill or scallions. Finish with a sprinkling of almonds for a bit of crunch.

A Really Great Coconut Corn Salad

Butter a skillet add corn, fresh thyme, red onions, toasted almonds and coconut, and finish with a squeeze of lemon or lime juice...

Super Tasty, Toasted Almond Sable Cookies

Toasty, nutty sable cookies made with whole wheat flour, sliced almonds, currents and salted butter. And a peek at some of my favorite vintage cookie cutters.

Genius Kale Salad

There is a special kale salad recipe in the Food52 Genius Recipes cookbook. A single kale salad that ran the gauntlet, beating out all others, for a slice of limelight.

Summer Melon Salad

A simple summer melon salad. Sweet chunks of melon combine with toasted almonds for crunch, serrano chiles and scallions counter the sweet, there's small dollops of crème fraîche, cilantro, and a wash of sake. A real summer refresher.

Chocolate Frosted Almond Butter Toast with Banana

My current go-to toast. The best part? It’s the frosting. Which isn’t really frosting. It’s almond butter, yogurt, and cacao powder whipped together into a billowy spread. When I’m craving a quick, healthful breakfast, or just need an afternoon snack, this fits the bill.
