Rustic White Bean & Greens Heart Healthy Soup
While I made this Rustic White Bean & Greens Heart Healthy Soup two days after January 1st, you could easily serve this on the big day to encourage luck and good fortune! We, like many of you, enjoy Black-eyed peas or beans, collard greens cooked with ham, and golden cornbread on New Year’s Day. These are after-all good luck foods and lord knows we need all the luck we can get these days.

French Onion Dip is a Game Day Staple
There was a time when French Onion Dip was the go-to staple for Game Day or family gatherings. A packet of onion soup mix, a tub of sour cream, and a big bag of ruffled potato chips and we were in dip heaven. Just think how far the dip world has come, evolved if you will.

Autumn Thyme Wedge Salad {with Warm Goat Cheese Fritters}
I made this Autumn Thyme Wedge Salad a couple weeks ago and have been dying to share it with you. It has so many wonderful seasonal flavors that it sings of Autumn Thyme. The star of the salad were the Warm Goat Cheese Fritters. They were so good they deserved their own recipe post (and so delayed the introduction of our newest wedge salad recipe).

Flame Roasted Poblano, Cilantro & Lime Dressing
Fire Roasted Poblano, Cilantro & Lime Dressing is my new favorite. Slightly smoky bright flavors, balanced by toasted cumin, cilantro and fresh lime juice. I wanted each component to hold it’s flavor identity, so I’ve left it slightly chunky. Turns out this dressing doubles as a kickin’ salsa :) and soon to be used as a marinade.

Tomato Bacon Jam
This has been my Summer of Jam. In years past I had avoided making jams and jellies simply due to my lack of understanding of the canning process. However, once I discovered how easy it was to make skillet jams the creative juices began to flow. Strawberry Jalapeno and Peach Jalapeno Skillet Jams gave me the confidence to take on Tomato Bacon Jam.

Homemade Mayonnaise
