Pumpkin Cake

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Nov 20, 2011 at 7:50am

Spicy, tender Pumpkin Cake to eat warm with whipped cream. Lovely for dessert, but devoured ’round these parts…for breakfast! When we ran out of whipped cream I just poured heavy cream over warm pieces, in a bowl, and made my son very happy. A little grating of fresh nutmeg over the top is a nice…

Challah with Honey-Rosemary Butter

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Nov 1, 2011 at 4:51pm

Tender, egg-y challah bread is lovely on the Thanksgiving table. Not only is it pretty, but it harkens back to my mom’s yeasty homemade crescent rolls, but for about one-tenth of the effort. The honey-rosemary butter plays nicely with turkey, squash, and stuffing. And everything. Challah Makes one large loaf 4 c. bread flour (unbleached…

Roasted Butternut Squash with Sage (Paleo-Friendly, AIP-Friendly)

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Oct 25, 2011 at 1:19pm

This dish is inspired by a roasted squash dish I had at 112 Eatery a few years back. If you love butternut squash as much as I do, I suggest planning to have this as an entree, perhaps with a salad. It is not a light dish, although it doesn’t have to be heavy if…

Autumn Sangria

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Oct 18, 2011 at 3:41pm

You might think of sangria as a summer drink – which it is – but this autumn version just might be the best I’ve ever had. The pretty jug in the photo was stirred together by my friend Molly McNeil, a cocktail minxtress if ever I’ve met one, based on a version by the talented…

Eggplant with Yogurt Sauce

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Oct 4, 2011 at 10:37am

I’ve had my eye on this recipe ever since I acquired the lovely cookbook Plenty by Yotam Ottolenghi. If you’re looking for mouth-watering ways to add vegetables to your life, this is your book. Not only are the recipes clever and inspired, the photography is simply stunning. Earlier this summer I took a cup of…

Dutch Apple Pancake

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Sep 20, 2011 at 1:38pm

This pancake is meant to be served with a dusting of confectioners’ sugar, which is lovely, but I’ll be honest…a generous drizzle of Sapsucker Farms maple syrup, with a tidy pile of crispy bacon, is a very, incredibly awesome way to usher in fall. For my gluten-free friends, I did a little experiment using gluten-free,…

Gazpacho

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Sep 13, 2011 at 3:00pm

How do you like your gazpacho? Smooth or chunky? Spicy or sweet? I’m such a gazpacho lover that I like it any way, honestly, and mix it up every time that I make it, depending on my mood and what I have on hand. This version is a combination of elements from two friends’ recipes:…

Grilled Corn Salsa

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Aug 23, 2011 at 5:27pm

Sweet is good, but salty-sweet is better. As Minnesota State Fair goers know, grilling makes corn even cornier, drying the kernels a bit and concentrating their flavor to sweet, chewy heaven. Sliced off the cob, tossed with crunchy onion, fresh cilantro, a squirt of lime – and salt of course! – this salsa is just…

Crepes with Warm Blueberry Sauce

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Aug 9, 2011 at 10:42pm

I bought the loveliest local blueberries at the market last week, as plump and pretty as as my Grandma Meyer. I got them home, popped a handful in mouth because I’m greedy, and was shocked to discover…sour! Oh so sour! So I dumped them into a saucepan with some (not too much) sugar and turned…
