Happy weekend!
This week on the blog I posted my take on weeknight buffalo chicken sandwiches, a quick and spicy sandwich perfect for busy nights. I also shared bang bang Brussels sprouts, a bright jalapeño blood orange mocktail, and a hot honey chili crunch dip—easy recipes that add flavor without fuss.
If you’re looking for reading inspiration, my winter reading list has picks to curl up with this season.
There’s a new weekly menu plan to help simplify mealtime and a glimpse into a week in our life if you’re curious about how we balance food, family, and daily routines.
You can join the Everyday Dinners cookbook club on Facebook. If you already have a copy of the cookbook, request to join the group. If you don’t, consider getting one and joining the community—it’s a friendly place full of recipe ideas and support to get you excited about seasonal cooking. I’m ready to start on fall meals and can’t wait to see what everyone shares.
