In New York we mostly go out to eat or grab a meal the someone else has prepared. Now that we are cooking every meal indoors here are some suggestions to create some comport and fun. Parmesan Muffins You don’t need a whole lot to make these. And chances are you already have most of the ingredients in your fridge/pantry! Here’s what you’ll need: Ingredients: Parmesan cheese – freshly grated, pretty please! Instant yeast Milk Sugar Flour An egg Butter Seasonings: salt, pepper, oregano and thyme.  Directions: In a medium bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar and yeast. Cover with...

Plus you probably have all these ingredients in your pantry already.  These Baked BBQ Chicken Thighs are on of my favorite recipes. They are so simple to make and have become a stample in our house.  How to make Baked BBQ Chicken Thighs: Step one: Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees F. Then prepare a baking sheet with foil and a baking rack and pat chicken dry with a paper towel and set aside. BBQ Rub: For this recipe I like to keep it really simple with the rub.

No-Knead Everyday Bread is a simple homemade bread that needs just 90 minutes to rise and doesn’t require special methods or equipment. (No Dutch oven. No bread flour.)  Many years ago (and again now, as we’re all adjusting to this socially distanced life) the internet fell in love with Jim Lahey’s No-Knead Bread.

No-Knead French Bread loaves have golden, crisp crusts and lightly chewy centers. This homemade bread needs just 90 minutes of total rise time and makes two rustic loaves. It doesn’t require special methods or equipment. (No bread flour needed.)  Yesterday I shared the basic recipe for making No-Knead Everyday Bread which is baked in a bowl to produce a single, round loaf of bread. Today, we’re using that same recipe to make these French bread loaves. These loaves just use a bit of flour for dusting and can be baked on a sheet pan. Whether this is your first time...

If you've exhausted all your banana bread ideas, it's time to switch over to zucchini bread. The sweet bread, which is very reminiscent of banana bread, packs in a bunch of veggies without actually tasting like veggies. Joanna Gaines's zucchini bread recipe is super simple and bakes up a delicious snack you'll definitely enjoy. I made Joanna's bread today following her recipe closely - I even made the same mistake she did in her YouTube video, using an 8-by-8-inch pan instead of a 9-by-9. Lesson learned: a 9-by-9 is definitely the pan you need! I also opted to leave out...
