The blueberry cobbler that won our neighborhood BBQ cook-off last summer 🏆🫐
To get the recipe, write “EAT” below and I’ll send it over 🙌
Every summer, our neighborhood holds a men’s BBQ cook-off with meats, sides, desserts, and a little bronze pig trophy for each winner. My husband signed up for dessert, but then got busy helping me with a project, so I helped him make his entry. And by “helped,” I mean I made this blueberry cobbler 😂 It ended up taking first place, and the guys joked that they’d allow a girl to be involved just this once 😉 It’s packed with juicy blueberries and topped with the best golden, cookie-like topping. So easy and SO good!

I don’t think there was a single boring moment this past week! One day we were making crêpes, the next we were folding dough, and before I knew it, we had beautiful pastries sitting in front of us. It was such a fun week, and I already know a lot of these recipes are coming home with me. 😄
These Caesar Smash Tacos are giving restaurant-level dinner at home, but they are SO easy and SO flavorful!
I made them with @betterthanbouillon roasted chicken base and it adds the best rich, savory flavor right into the chicken. It is such an easy way to take everyday ingredients and make them taste bold, flavorful, and a little more special.
Drop “EAT” and I’ll send you the whole recipe!
The chicken gets smashed onto tortillas, cooked until golden and crispy, then topped with crunchy romaine, Parmesan, and Caesar dressing.
Creamy, crispy, packed with flavor, and such a fun summer dinner for a weeknight or casual backyard meal.

I first shared this recipe in 2018, and somehow it’s never been dethroned. Thousands of people have made it because it’s ridiculously flavorful, incredibly filling, and the slow cooker does almost all the work. Toss everything in, walk away, and come back to a dinner you’ll want to make again and again. ❤️❤️

This week was packed with practicals, eggs (so. many. eggs. 😂), homemade puff pastry, new favorite restaurants, and some of the best people. I’m learning so much every day, and somehow I already feel like London is starting to feel a little like home.

After bringing meals to friends and family for years, I’ve learned that some of the most appreciated things are the extras. Washed fruit in the fridge. Breakfast for the next morning. Snacks they can grab with one hand. Something sweet for later.
It’s perfect for new parents, someone recovering from surgery, a grieving family, or anyone going through an especially busy or difficult season.
Save this for the next time someone you love could use a little extra care ❤️

This is what a full day at Le Cordon Bleu London actually looks like! 🇬🇧👩🍳
For a full recap drop “LONDON” below 🙌
We headed straight into the kitchen in full chef gear and divided up a trolley packed with ingredients. The highlight of our first practical was a classic French onion soup made with veal stock. It was rich, savory, and one of my favorite dishes we’ve made so far! We plated everything for the chef, received our grades, and cleaned the entire kitchen.
Next came a study break with a freshly baked baguette before a demonstration on classical French egg cookery. The chef showed us several traditional techniques, and of course, we lined up afterward to taste every dish.
Then it was back into the kitchen to make our own egg dishes for grading. Our chef wrote “SMASHED IT!!!” on the board, which felt like a win for the day!
I grabbed a treat from the pastry students, had pizza for dinner, and called it a day. Thanks for coming along! XOXO 😘
