Cranberry apple bacon bars are salty, tangy, and sweet. If you do not love bacon it is easily omitted. Perfect for Thanksgiving weekend!

Sauteed brussels sprouts with pancetta are the base for this fall inspired panzanella salad. Tossed with dried cranberries and carrots, this salad is as gorgeous as it is tasty.

As soon as the Halloween costume comes off the heavy holiday frenzy begins. I feel like I am thinking of what to bring to Thanksgiving all year round but for most people the panic usually sets in November 1st. 

One of the best parts of the holiday season is sharing it with friends and family. It is the perfect time to express how thankful and appreciative you are to those in your life who matter most.

Family celebrations are always special. It’s always a great reason to get together with extended family. Birthdays are always fun because it allows us to tailor a menu to a guest of honor. In this case it was my grandmother! She is an amazing lady and of course a big inspiration when it comes to my cooking.
