Happy Friday. Iām writing this to you from a moving car burning through my mobile hotspot like nobodyās business. Donāt worry, Iām not drivingā¦Iām not that reckless! I am on my way back up to New York for a weekend trip. Instead of Hudson Valley, Iām going to be gettinā cozy in the Catskills.
Once I get in, Iāll be shaking up a few flower drop cocktails, and I also brought a bottle of German glühwein with a wild label design that I canāt wait to break open and warm up. Tomorrow, Iāll be eating at Brushland Eating House. The menu looks incredible! Herb and turmeric soup, pheasant terrine, roasted beets with ham, roasted lamb, and butternut basque cheesecake! It all sounds delicious and soul-nourishingly perfect, and Iām just utterly excited for dinner tomorrow.
Iām really happy to be getting away for the weekend and needless to say, I wonāt be cooking for the next few days. I try to never let my readers down though, so I still have two recipes to share with you before I sign off. I also have a couple more reader favorites that have trickled in the past few days which Iāll share with you if you need even more cooking inspiration this weekend.
Lasagna Soup
If your social media feeds are anything like mine, youāve been seeing lasagna soup recipes all over the place. I developed this recipe last year but never posted it to my website. The few people who saw the recipe and made it absolutely raved about it, so I thought it deserved to be eternally memorialized on my site. Itās an ooey-gooey-kinda-sloppy-kinda-sacrilegious bowl of deliciousness that I know youāll love as much as I did.
Cabbage Ramen with Pork
Sweet, sesame-soy pork is served with a warming bowl of slurpable, bouncy ramen in an easy-to-prepare savory broth.
Recipes readers love right now
Orange-Thyme Beef Stew
This orange-thyme beef stew has been a reader favorite since I posted it three years ago. The sweetness of orange pairs beautifully with the ultra-savory beef stew. Pile it on mashed potatoes, and your belly will thank you.
Roast Chicken and Fennel with Mashed Potatoes
Can you have too many recipes with mashed potatoes? I donāt think so and neither do the many readers who simply love this dish as much as I do. Itās a stunner on the table, and the fennel adds a lovely warmth thatās perfect for this time of year.
Thatās all! Iām signing off for a relaxing vacation in the mountains. I hope everyone has a restful weekend filled with lots of tasty food. Byeeee! š š
