Mains / Entrées
Chargrilled Ginger Glazed Halibut
Grilling isn’t just for summer. Some of my favorite flamed dishes are made in the cooler seasons. This ginger soy glazed halibut fillet brings that perfect char-grilled flavor to your table to warm things up. I’ll also share some winter grilling tips and tricks to keep the coals perfectly toasty. I’ve always been that guy…
Mustard Grilled Steak with Mango Salsa
Nearly every single night during summer and fall, y’all can find me in the same spot. Grilling outside is one of those things that I look forward to every winter, counting down the days to when I can tolerate being outside enough to light up the grill again. I love to try to change up…
Tomato Goat Cheese Tart + Walnut Crust
I know that fall is just hours away, but it’s still blazing hot and the tomatoes are still beautiful here in Tennessee. I’m giving summer one last hoorah in this tomato tart filled with goat cheese custard and a hint of fall with a toasted walnut wheat pastry crust. Tomatoes are one of those summer…
Goat Cheese Prosciutto Stuffed Peppadews
I am officially finished with the summer heat, y’all. Nashville is hawwwwwt in one of those uncomfortable, sticky kinda ways. The only saving grace right now is that I really do love all of the summer minglings with friends. Weekend and evening drinks and laughs almost make me forget that fall is just around the corner…
Brûléed Cheddar Mac and Cheese
Can we just take a minute to talk about my love for mac ‘n cheese? Creamy, warm, simple to make. It’s one of my most common go-to’s for a cozy night in (which is pretty much every night, right?). To celebrate my partners over at Tillamook expanding nationwide and into the East Coast (yessssss!), I…
Lasagna Hand Pies
This might be one of my favorite comfort food mix-ups yet, y’all. Lasagna is no joke in my house. There is something amazing that happens when you bake layers of sharp tomato sauce, beef, Italian seasoned ricotta, and creamy mozzarella together. The result is 100% comfort. I’ve teamed up with Gardein to show you how I turned…
15 Minute Shrimp Scampi
I basically survived on 15 minutes meals last month. Between running around town snapping photos for upcoming spring menus in Nashville, working on a redesign for the blog, and everything else that everyday life throws into the mix, I have found myself getting home not really wanting to cook for an hour. If you don’t…
Champagne Onion Rings
SPRING is here, y’all! I know I’ve been whiny and complaining about the nasty cold weather, rainy whatever, so I’m here to celebrate the 80 degree days that we have been having in Nashville by popping a few bottles into my glass as well as the fryer. Why not, right? Around here, you can fry just…
Bourbon Glazed Burger
Beef and bourbon. Two southern staples that are held completely sacred around here. Put them together you say? Why, I think I just might! — A solid burger is probably my choice for my last meal (with killer fries, of course). I’ve been on a kick of grinding cuts of meat myself at home for…
