How to Save Your Favorite Recipes {A Quick Video From Me to You 🎥} + Two of My Favorite Recipes United in One Delicious Bowl
|
Friends, Hello! And Happy New Year 🎉 I have been meaning to create this video on how-to-save-your-recipes or such a long time. Nearly every month I get an email from someone asking: "Where are my saved faves?" Apologies to anyone who has found the saving process tricky. I hope the new video is helpful. This week I made two of my favorite recipes — sweet potato taco filling and slow cooker black beans — and found myself eating them together on repeat, often in bowl form like this: I hadn't made the sweet potato taco filling in such a long time, and I had forgotten how easily it comes together. I use the shredder attachment of my food processor to "grate" the sweet potatoes and in place of the spices I've been using a few teaspoons of Penzeys taco seasoning, which makes the process go just a teensy bit faster. You can use the filling for quesadillas, too:
Or burritos (also with the black beans):
I know I have sung the praises of these slow-cooker black beans countless times before, but if you have a slow cooker, I can't recommend the recipe enough: it can be assembled in about 5 minutes in the morning and the beans will be cooked by midday. I use this same method for chickpeas, too, but the chickpeas take a little longer to cook.
I can eat these beans straight from the pot — they are perfectly seasoned and just so tasty!
Friends, I hope all is well! And that you survived the holidays. Homebody that I am, I am so happy to be back in my routine. Hope you are, too.

Hi Friends, At the start of this week, when summer finally arrived in Upstate New York, I found myself at the grill making chicken souvlaki and had a revelation: while it's hot, why not put it to more use? So I threw some peppers on the grates alongside the chicken, figuring I could use them in this favorite (no-peel) salad dressing or to have on hand for sandwiches or salads: The peppers took much longer than the chicken... ... and because I may have forgotten about them, and because they...
Eat peanut noodles! And cold overnight oats! And watermelon gazpacho! (And make a sourdough starter from scratch... see below :)) Hi Friends, I would be lying if I said I had turned my oven off, stocked up on cucumbers and watermelons, and turned to all of my favorite no-cook recipes, because it has been very rainy and not summer-like at all here in Upstate New York. But apparently the heat is coming! And depending on where you are, you might already be experiencing it. If you are, I can't...
Hi Friends, Nearly every other week, I make a batch of these slow-cooker chickpeas, and I am always astonished by how delicious they taste straight from the pot: perfectly cooked and seasoned, all for about five minutes of effort. In the winter, those chickpeas often become this curry or these taco bowls, and in the summer, I dress them with this cilantro-lime vinaigrette or toss them into this favorite chopped salad. My latest favorite use for them is in this herby tabbouleh-inspired salad,...
