Greek Dinner

August is peak tomato season, so we build a whole Greek feast around our no-lettuce Greek salad. Meatballs, lemony garlic potatoes, and tzatziki round it out — each one stands on its own too.

Hainanese Chicken Rice

Crispy chicken skin and all. Poached brothy chicken, gingery garlicky rice cooked in the schmaltz, and two sauces — ginger scallion oil and sweet soy — with a cup of warm broth for sipping.

Roast Chicken with Crusty Bread and Herby Sizzling Olive Oil (+ gravy)

Fall screams roast chicken weather and we've been perfecting this recipe for you. The chicken is roasted over carrots, potatoes, and crusty sourdough which soaks up all the flavor + you can make a perfect gravy with the pan drippings. Also, the herby sizzling olive oil is the sauce you didn't know you needed.

Sungold Pasta with Herby Breadcrumbs

We are living in tomato abundance right now, so when life gives you sungolds...make creamy sungold pasta. It's topped with burrata and crispy herby breadcrumbs for the perfect crunch.

Braciole with Orecchiette

An ode to our favorite dish in Puglia, Italy. Thin steak rolled with garlic, parsley, parm, and prosciutto, simmered low and slow in tomato sauce and tossed with orecchiette.

Cheddar Biscuit Pot Pie

This dish did not need to be as good as it was. A rich, herby chicken filling under craggy cheddar buttermilk biscuits — bake off the extra dough and snack on biscuits while it cooks.

Sweet Potato Ricotta Gnocchi

Pillowy sweet potato and ricotta gnocchi, seared in brown butter with sage. We finish it with crispy sausage and kale for a cozy, complete plate.

Cheesy Crispy Penne Vodka with Sausage

A tale as old as time — penne and vodka sauce, jazzed up with sausage, melty mozzarella, and garlicky breadcrumbs. Baked until bubbly with a crispy top.

Green Chicken Chili

We prefer this to a tomato chili — it feels light and refreshing with all the green chilies and shredded chicken. And you can't eat chili without a jalapeño cheddar cornbread.

Honey Maple Deli Turkey

We could not believe how good this homemade deli turkey was and since Madison isn't eating deli meat while she's pregnant this was the perfect way to satisfy the craving!! The lemony herby aioli and fresh toppings didn't hurt either.

Eggplant Parm Lasagna

This came out even better than we could have imagined! A lighter version of eggplant parm still loaded with cheese and all the layers you look for in lasagna.

Beef Bourguignon

This traditional French dish was made popular by the late Julia Child. It's almost like a beef stew but elevated by soaking the beef in red wine, adding lardons, and some extra veggies. It's hearty and cozy for this winter that just won't quit.

Beef Pepper Rice

This is a copycat dish from a popular chain in Tokyo, Japan, Pepper Lunch. They serve sizzling platters of beef and rice with all kinds of toppings. This is their signature beef pepper rice but there's so many ways to customize it.

Chicken and Dumplings

It has been the coldest winter we've experienced in a long time and we're always trying to up our soup game. Chicken and dumplings kind of reminds us of matzo ball soup but it's sinful cousin. This warmed us right up and was hearty and filling.

Pistachio Tiramisu

Move over dubai chocolate...this is how we're eating our pistachios from now on. A show-stopping holiday dessert that's familiar yet has a nutty pistachio twist that everyone will love!

Pasta Fagioli

This is Stanley Tucci's favorite soup for a reason...we were obsessed with this cozy one pot meal that came together in no time!

Short Rib Ragu + Ricotta Gnocchi

The coziest pasta dish ever. period. Truly this is one of the best things we've ever made and it's way easier than you might think to make homemade gnocchi.

French Onion Mac & Cheese

Corn Pasta

We are obsessed with summer corn and love combining it with pasta for a super hearty meal - this is like a mix between cacio e pepe meets creamed corn and we're here for it.

Jammy Tomato Panzanella Salad

This is the only way we want to be eating tomatoes and salads this summer... the sweet jammy tomatoes compliment the crispy toasted bread, creamy burrata, and refreshing peaches. And yes, this may be the best salad we've ever made.

Crispy Fish Tacos

Why are crispy fish tacos always so superior? We're not sure but we're obsessed. The way the creamery smokey mayo coats the crispy flakey fish and then the cabbage and veg cuts through.... it just works. So here's our interpretation of this staple taco.

Mexican Inspired Steak Salad

A perfect steak always hit so hard but paired with a crunchy, refreshing, and loaded salad makes for a wonderful dinner. We loved this combo of raw corn, creamy salad dressing, and hearty steak.

Perfect Chicken Cutlets with Fennel Parmesan Salad

This easily is the recipe we’ve made the most - (1) because our mom is obsessed with them, (2) they are extremely versatile, and (3) they are incredibly delicious. Enjoy cutlets with salad on top, or make into chicken parm, or a sandwich or eat them plain! For this version, we are pairing them with a perfectly refreshing fennel, grapefruit, arugula salad that's loaded with sharp parm, olives, pine nuts and more!

Steak Frites with Cowboy Butter

We love a good medium rare steak and pairing it with crispy fries and a homemade cowboy butter for dipping makes it even better.

Everyone is always raving about Marry Me pasta, a creamy sundried tomato dish loaded with flavor so we're switching it up with a little orzo.

Orecchiette with Sausage and Broccoli Rabe

This is the perfect pasta dish, Orecchiette with Sausage and Broccoli Rabe. It comes together quickly in one pot and we think you’ll love it.

Bolognese

Chicken Marsala

One of our mom’s favorite dishes is chicken marsala so whenever we’d go out for Italian food we always got it. The best part is when they pour the mushroom sauce all over the pasta so that’s exactly how we enjoyed this recipe. Hope it brings comfort to you and your home :)

French Dip Sandwich

Lasagna meets eggplant parmesan, this is the perfect all in one meal with gooey melty cheese, simple sauce, and tons of fresh basil.

Uni Lobster Spaghetti

Episode 6 of our cozy Sunday Dinner series is a creamy uni lobster spaghetti with garlicky bread crumbs that truly tastes like adult mac and cheese (in the best way possible). The uni is subtle but adds and nice seafood flavor .

Veal Vodka Parm

Episode 5 of our cozy Sunday Dinner series is everyone’s favorite Italian comfort food with a twist: Veal Parm with vodka sauce. Obviously, Veal Parm is traditionally consumed with red sauce, but who doesn’t love vodka sauce?

Vodka Pasta with Burrata

This is one of our most popular recipes and rightfully so, we love our vodka pasta with burrata!

Coq Au Vin

Episode 3 of our cozy Sunday Dinner series is a French classic and Julia Child speciality, Coq Au Vin. Now technically you need to start making this dish the day before you cook it, but trust us, it’s worth it!

Italian Wedding Soup

The best dinner sometimes is just a big bowl of soup and Italian wedding soup is one of our favorites. We love the mini meatballs, noodles, and extra veggies!

World’s Best Caesar Salad

We love a good Caesar salad and feel like people don’t understand how easy and how much better it is when you make your own dressing. Not sure why little gems make all salads taste better but if you can find them it will make a huge difference. This is how restaurants make their salads taste so good so just perfect your dressing and eating salad will be very easy!!
