Currently Crushing On: Who I’m Crushing On Now and Why

img 68674 1

Hello, weekend!

On the blog this week I started off with sheet pan chicken fajitas — they’re simple, flavorful, and perfect for an easy weeknight meal. I also posted a harvest skillet tortellini that’s full of fall veggies, a cozy pomegranate cider, a soft pumpkin focaccia, and indulgent salted peanut butter cup bars.

There’s a new “what to eat” menu post this week, plus a fresh A Week in the Life post where I share a peek into our daily routine.

Have a lovely one! xo

What I’m loving this week:

Game day pumpkin chili — a comforting, slightly spicy seasonal twist on chili that’s great for gatherings.

Mexican candied sweet potatoes — a beautiful balance of sweet and savory that feels like fall in every bite.

Chili cheese fry bake — cheesy, crispy, and exactly the kind of weekend comfort food I’m craving.

Snickerdoodle cheesecake — a dreamy mashup of cinnamon sugar and creamy cheesecake that sounds irresistible.

Fall harvest pizza with apples, candied bacon, broccolini and kale — a creative, savory-sweet pizza perfect for the season.

Green chili chicken soup — bright, warming, and packed with flavor for chilly evenings.

Warm marinated olives — an elegant, easy appetizer that elevates any snack spread.

Fried rosemary and garlic dip — a crunchy, aromatic dip that pairs wonderfully with bread or roasted veggies.

Chili pomegranate margaritas — a festive cocktail with a touch of heat and bright fruit notes.

Maple cheesecake — rich, smooth, and beautifully flavored for autumn desserts.

Almond banana bread — a nutty, moist loaf that makes a great breakfast or snack.

Sourdough cinnamon rolls — tangy dough with swirls of cinnamon sugar for a next-level brunch treat.

Apple cheddar biscuits — a savory-sweet biscuit with tender apple and sharp cheddar for a delightful contrast.
