In this delicious easy green bean almondine recipe, green beans are quickly roasted and tossed with garlic, shallots and butter-roasted almonds. Green beans have never been so delicious! This easy dish only takes a few minutes to prepare, and the green beans can be kept warm if you need to make them ahead of time. Making Green Beans Almondine in One Pan Many traditional recipes for almond beans call for blanching the green beans. While that is certainly acceptable, my recipe simplifies the process so that everything cooks in one skillet. Blanch the sliced ​​green beans in broth or water … Read more

Oven heating: Up to 375°F (190°C). Sprinkle the crumbs: In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet (I use this one), melt two tablespoons of butter over medium heat and add the breadcrumbs. Dip the crumbs in the butter, stir, until golden brown. Season with a little salt and scrape the crumbs into a bowl to set aside. Swipe the pan to clean it, if you like. No one will notice if the crumb ends up in the sauce, though. Toss your pasta: Place the uncooked pasta in a large bowl and cover with hot water. Knead for 10 minutes and take it … Read more

This is a recipe you make once a year. I first made arancini a few years ago for a holiday dinner party, and now I’ve thought about it again, and made it again, every year since. Arancini is an Italian dish of creamy risotto balls topped with mozzarella cheese and fried to a golden filling. Guys, this is not a functional diet. This is not a quick, everyday dinner. This is the opposite of that. First we make a risotto (which is a concern in itself) and then we wrap it with mozzarella cheese, wrap it, fry it, and cook … Read more

This slow cooker recipe is flavorful, perfectly moist, and brilliant when you need to free up some oven space. However, it can also be baked in the oven, if needed. My sister-in-law brought this stuffing to the family for Thanksgiving, and I’m not kidding, no one could talk about it. It’s the best stuffing EVER. The Best Bread to Use in a Slow Cooker I have found that the best bread is thick, firm sandwich bread. I use the Grandma Sycamore brand. One loaf (17 slices) is the perfect amount for this recipe. However, a solid homemade bread recipe like … Read more

Seasonal Mix: If you don’t have a good seasoning mix, or if you’re not sure if the one you have will be good here, simply sprinkle your salmon with a teaspoon of coarse kosher salt, along with onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika. Just make it nice and seasoned to look like it did in the video. This helps impart flavor to the salmon and helps the sauce adhere to the salmon. Avocado Cucumber Salsa: I love this salmon with a sweet and tangy avocado salsa! Mix 1 avocado (chopped), half a cucumber (chopped), a pinch of chopped cilantro, a … Read more

It’s time to admit it! As someone who has more ideas than I can fit into three cookbooks, one audiobook, and even 18 years of history on this website, sometimes when I want to complain about something food-related but it’s not the time or place, I put it in a little document called “rants” full of frustration , you only have my permission to posthumously publish. But I can’t write a headline for this cake without first owning up to #23 on the list in advance: “Fake apple cider cakes.” That raises the questions: Who hurt you, Deb? What gives? … Read more
