Meet Nico + Ragù alla Bolognese

November 7, 2017 by theeverykitchen@gmail.com Leave a Comment

This authentic recipe for Ragù alla Bolognese is well worth the hour it takes to make. You’ll have plenty for a family dinner, plus extra for the freezer. You should also know that it’s damn delicious and it very well may make you cry.

I met Nico in Spain.

I met him on my second night in Spain in a dormitory in a small place called Roncesvalles. I only spoke with him briefly, but I remembered him. Maybe it was something in those deep, chocolate eyes of his. Or the cadence of his conversation — that Italian lilt.

Does this sound like a love story yet? It sort of is. I fell in love with many people and things in Spain and Nico is one of them.

Rocky Road Fudge Bars

August 31, 2017 by theeverykitchen@gmail.com 9 Comments

Rocky Road Fudge Bars will make people fall in love with you… consider this your warning. This chocolatey, nutty, creamy layered bar is a standard at every family barbecue and summer holiday party and will be for years to come. I get constant comments that it’s sweet, but not too sweet, and could I have another one, please?!

I feel like I’ve been making a ton of not-so-nutritious foods lately and this is supposed to be a mostly nutritious blog. I’ve definitely pushing the limits of that word “mostly.” But ya know what? Someone challenged me recently to share my very first food photo on the Insta… and it wasn’t pretty. I first made these Rocky Road Fudge Bars on June 20, 2014 — more than three years ago! — and today I’m updating the post with some new photos.

Farmer’s Market Succotash

July 10, 2017 by theeverykitchen@gmail.com 2 Comments

Farmer’s Market Succotash is the absolute best way I’ve ever eaten veggies in my entire life. The recipe keeps it simple, so we really enjoy the seasonal, farm-to-table summer flavors.

I’m not lying when I say this: I don’t think I’ve ever seen something disappear from my fridge faster than Farmer’s Market Succotash. It’s just a pot of vegetables. But really, really well-prepared, simply made, fresh, seasonal, farm-to-table vegetables.

RumChata Blondies with Fireball Cream Cheese Frosting

July 2, 2017 by theeverykitchen@gmail.com 29 Comments

RumChata Blondies with Fireball Cream Cheese Frosting are the perfect summer party dessert. This recipe will not fail to impress. Trust me, I’ve made it five times in five weeks and my friends keep asking for more!

It took me four tries. FOUR. And thank heavens I kept trying because RumChata Blondies with Fireball Cream Cheese Frosting are SLAMMIN’. On the first three tries, I was set on a cream cheese swirl because I thought cream cheese frosting would be too sweet. I will admit, I was wrong. These are fantabulous x19203 and everyone has agreed.

Rainbow Sprinkle Vanilla Icebox Cake is made with simple and luscious homemade whipped cream. It’s got crispy outer cookies and sweet, softened inner layers. I did share, but I really, really, very much truly wish that I had eaten the entire recipe myself.

Happy 3rd Birthday to meeee! The Every Kitchen is THREE years old! Can you believe it? I’m doing a little happy dance – you know the one – hands in the air, head bob, a little uncoordinated shoulder shrug and a shimmy-shake. My blog baby is three and I’ve got Rainbow Sprinkle Vanilla Icebox Cake.
