The holidays in a pan are here! Just one sniff and you’ll think Thanksgiving morning. The sweet smell of cinnamon, cloves, ginger make this bread so so good. The pumpkin and sourdough starter (discard) is in there to give it extra moisture. And the pecans give it just a little bit of crunch. It keeps […]
It’s football season and it begs for some good snack food. While I’ve made a lot of Football food before, I haven’t made soft pretzels in a long time! So today was the day. If you’ve been around for a while, you know I love a good sourdough recipe. So when my need for soft […]
This morning, I realized we had a lot of our sourdough bread leftover that I made the other day. Sometimes, I just can’t eat the bread fast enough so it goes stale. But over time, I’ve learned not to toss it. I use the stale bread to make croutons! They’re super easy to make, they […]

Indian food is probably one of my favorite cuisines. We used to eat at our favorite one in New Jersey almost weekly. Trevor and I have yet to find an Indian restaurant around here that we love, so we end up cooking it at home more now. It’s turned out to be a really good […]
When you say mac & cheese to most people, they think of the boxed variety with the powdered orange cheese. It’s super cheap and easy to make, but tastes pretty gritty. When we go out to restaurants, they make creamy mac & cheese from a rue with nice pasta and cheese. It’s so delicious! But, […]
