make: quick fridge pickle.
To know me is to know I love all things pickle. But not sweet pickle. This is a quick refrigerator pickle from Smitten Kitchen and I can’t say enough about it. Easy, delicious, a necessary staple in my house. You can tweak the recipe to suit your needs–I didn’t have any fresh dill, so these…

cheddar goldfish | bake.
I’ve made these a a handful of times and they never get old–Smitten Kitchen’s homemade cheddar goldfish. My only mod?

This Chicken Gyro Salad by Smitten Kitchen was a perfect weeknight meal on the back porch. I added feta for my own flair with this recipe–and the tzatziki was bomb. Please make this.

pea, prosciutto | pasta.
The other week, I made this really simple dinner courtesy Smitten Kitchen.
