Maghreb b’stilla – pronounced pas-tee-yah – is a special-occasion dish firmly routed in Morocco. Often made with chicken, traditionally it was made with pigeon. We stuck with chicken. This meat pie is made in a round baking dish with phyllo pastry on top. In our version, we moved the filling to phyllo pockets to make hand...
This beautiful, decadent soup is our take on Belle River Crawfish Soup from Louisiana Travel. This creamy cauliflower and potato soup base is a delicious delight on its own. Now, bring in the crawfish! Garlic Jalapeño Oil and Unholy Trinity bring big flavor to this South Louisiana classic. Looks decadent. Sounds fancy. But trust us, this one...
Square pizza. Lunchroom pizza. Rectangle pizza. Lunch lady pizza. No matter the name, this old school pizza brings up so many memories. Jokes aside, this pizza has Sicilian roots and is known as Grandma Pizza. Crispy thin crust with sauce, toppings and cheese spread to the edge – so good! Admit it. Pizza day was...
Often confused with Poblano Chiles, the dried Pasilla Negro Chile is worth the research. Pasilla means “little raisin” and is the dried form of the Chilaca Chile. It has a touch of gentle heat, measuring in at under 2,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). We love what these chiles do in this recipe. We pair up...

Smoky and little bit sweet plus a gluten-free, protein-packed slam dunk – this West African-inspired veggie burger is an all-around winner. These patties can be oven roasted or skillet sizzled. They make a big batch and freeze well. Smoked Paprika adds a sweet-smoky note while Grains of Paradise deliver the heat. We’ve dunked these burgers...
Game night, girls night, date night, any night is right for these sheet pan nachos! We love how the sheet pan allows for an even layer of chips and maximum topping coverage – no naked chips on the bottom. All toppings are supported by chippage (is that a word?) While we may not be using...
This recipe is a two-pan, sheet pan situation. Loading everything onto one sheet pan would cause steaming when what we are looking for is GBD = Golden, Brown, Delicious roasted veggies. The solution is all in the planning. Load up two pans and plan to “burp” your oven midway to release the steam. The pan...
