Most Popular Thanksgiving Recipes from Delicious Shots
With Thanksgiving day around the corner, I thought I would put together for you some of the blog’s most popular recipes. I love every single one of these. It’s what I come back to every year. For starters, I have Coconut, Ginger and Butternut Squash Soup. These are great to pass around while everyone is waiting for dinner. Next up, Pork Tenderloin with Cranberry-Raspberry Sauce, because let’s face it, a lot of people don’t like turkey. Want something different from your traditional side dishes? Try two of my favorites; Lemon Yogurt & Sautéed Cauliflower or Roasted Veggies with Caramelized Onions and Tahini Sauce. Last but not least, dessert. Eggnog Cheesecake Tart (I know!) and a classic but always welcomed, Pumpkin Pie. Hungry yet? Well, get cooking!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Pumpkin Pie
Hi everybody, just a quick update to share my pumpkin pie recipe with you because, what’s fall without pumpkin pie, right? This is the perfect dessert to bring to a dinner party, it looks like you worked all day to make it but the truth is, both filling and tart shell are easy to put together and you will still get all the fame and glory for it :).
Spiced Upside-Down Plum Cake
Sometimes I bake cakes without any intention of publishing the recipe here. I just do it because I love to bake. But when people taste or see pictures, then they start asking for recipes and that’s when I know I need to post it (you would think I should know better by now, right?). Everyone I gave a piece of this cake fell in love with it so here I am, sharing another must-try recipe.
Easy Skillet Arroz Con Pollo and Salsa Verde
Everyone has their own version of arroz con pollo. It varies from region to region, some people use tomatoes, others use chicken broth and in some extreme cases, your grandma stops talking to you for days if you don’t make a sofrito. I'm not even kidding.
Strawberry Milkshake with Cardamom
You know when a recipe is super healthy, low calories and good for you, umm, this isn't that. This recipe will make you happy and comfort you and might even put you in a better mood. Isn't that enough to break your diet? If your answer is yes, you are reading the right post.
Roasted Tomato Soup with Parmesan Crisps and Basil Oil
Love tomato soup? Try this easy-to-make, silky tomato soup recipe filled with summer flavors. This is a light soup that doesn’t need heavy cream to be silky. Perfect for parties as you can make it ahead of time to be served hot or cold. The Parmesan crisp brings the crunch and the basil oil brightens this soup up. This beautiful balance of flavors and textures will leave you wanting more.
Roasted Pesto Potatoes
With all the grilling happening these days, side dishes can become repetitive and boring. Well, it doesn't have to be that way, here is a crowd-pleasing recipe you will find yourself making over and over again, without getting the “not again” face.
Montauk + Steamed Clams in White Wine
Hello all! It has been a while since I last updated my blog. Although I had good reasons for my absence, I missed you and I’m really happy to be back. No, you are not getting rid of me that easy! Summer has been great to me, it came with new friends, adventures and lots of new places to enjoy a good meal. I’m talking about Montauk specifically where I’ve been spending most of my weekends.
Carnival Birthday Party
My big boy Lucas just turned 5-years old on Saturday. I can’t believe it. This year we made a carnival themed party which was his idea. I love it because he was involved in the planning of his own party. The first thing he asked “make my favorite cake in the whole world” He was talking about THIS classic chocolate cake. This has been his favorite cake since he first had it. I don’t blame him, that chocolate cake is just amazing.
Fudgy Brownies, Seriously Good!
I love this recipe, the brownies come out just the way I like it: Fudgy, chocolaty, moist and crusty. I don’t think I will change this recipe. Ever. Why would I? They are just perfect. I tested this recipe a few times until I got the perfect consistency and baking time I was happy with. Not only did I make this recipe a few times but it got the approval of a bunch of kids and that, my friend, is the ultimate test.
Salsa Verde And Lima Bean Salad
As warmer weather approaches, I’m preparing my favorite recipes for when I can finally do some outdoor grilling. But, what’s up with Winter? It’s refusing to leave the East Coast and I swear I can not take one more day of snow. As I wait impatiently for better days, I decided to get us a smoker, yes! I’m excited about that, I think I’ll be smoking everything. Besides that, I also got a molcajete (mortar and pestle) which I love and already put to good use with this beautiful salsa verde that will brighten up your grilling.
Roasted Butternut Squash
Today I want to share a super easy recipe for roasted butternut squash. I love to make this as a side dish instead of the usual potatoes. This goes particularly well with stews or roasts. The minimalist way of preparing this side dish allows us to taste what butternut squash has to offer. This is so simple to prepare, you don’t even have to peel the butternut squash, simply cut it lengthwise, seed it, drizzle it with olive oil, sprinkle salt and black pepper and in to the oven it goes for 40 minutes and that’s that. I told you. Simple. Enjoy your weekend!
