Rosemary Olive Oil Beer Biscuits with Tomato Garlic Confit (dairy and egg-free) I have a theory. I really believe that breakfast being touted as the most important meal of the day has nothing to do with nutrition. It’s because we cook breakfast for the most important people in our lives. We’ll have a mid-day coffee,… Read More
White Chocolate Cake with Blood Orange Filling and Russian Imperial Buttercream The most frustrated I have even gotten while cooking, came at the hands of a cake. Not just a little frustrated, but throwing an actual tantrum in the kitchen all by myself. This is the ugly truth, people, if you can’t handle it, please… Read More
Hot Honey Beer Prawns I have a confession. This was supposed to be for dinner but instead I ate it over the sink and called it “lunch” as if I hadn’t already eaten. This would drive you crazy if you had to put up with me on a daily basis, I have no ability to… Read More
Pilsner Pappardelle with Harissa Brown Butter, Burrata, and Crispy Basil Is January an asshole, or is it just me? Every year of my life up to this moment, January has been the worst month.

Michelada Marinated Steak Tacos with Chipotle Avocado Sauce and Beer Pickled Onions If anyone tells you they don’t like tacos they are incorrect. Yes, I know, liking something is technically an opinion, and those can’t be correct or incorrect, except about tacos. I’ll even let those “I don’t really like ice cream” people have their… Read More
Beer Bread Cinnamon Roll Muffins, just twenty minutes to get these in your oven! Do you get really uncomfortable when you have to open gifts in front of the gifter or is it just me? Should I smile more? Am I appropriately excited or should I be louder? Was “wow” enough or should it have… Read More
Apricot Streusel Beer Loaf Cake (vegan) I do this every time. I see an ingredient and I can’t let it go like a normal person.

Grilled Beer Butter Scallops with Cherry Salsa, with a grill or a grill pan! Let’s talk scallops for a second. I know, I’ve given you this lecture before but it’s been a while. And I can’t just go around assuming you remember everything I say, I forget half of what I say on a daily… Read More
Lemon Artichoke Skillet Beer Chicken Life is too short for soggy chicken skin, this is a fact. Crispy chicken skin is the only way to live life, and I have the secret. It’s a cold pan. Not a “put in the fridge” cold, but now that you say that, I do want to try that.… Read More
Honey Beer Glazed Salmon with Mango Avocado Salsa I need this, it’s rather necessary.

Grilled Cilantro Lime Beer Chicken I go through phases of grilling all the things. And by ALL, I pretty much mean it. I once grilled garlic. Nothing edible is safe when I’m in this phase. I always grill my homemade pizza, all fruit is better grilled, I’ve even grilled all the ingredients for guacamole, and… Read More
Coconut Raspberry Pilsner Cake. Simple and delicious one-bowl cake with AMAZING frosting! Cake is the cornerstone of our society. Wait, it’s not? Freedom and democracy are? Ok, fine.

Maple Beer Glazed Crispy Pork Belly, the easiest and tastiest pork belly I’ve ever made! Pork belly is an investment. Not financially—it’s actually pretty inexpensive—it’s a time investment. One that’s well worth the effort with the right recipe. I’ve made pork belly so many times over the years and I’ve learned that patience is key… Read More
Coconut Pilsner Mango Cream Pie We’ve already talked about how much I hate bananas because they’re basically portable baby food and you need to eat fruit like a grownup who has teeth. Unless you don’t have teeth, then you get a pass. I don’t get jealous of people eating them raw like a jungle creature,… Read More
Strawberry Lemonade Beer Bars Let’s talk unpopular opinions, shall we? We haven’t fought about anything in a while so let’s jump in. Starting with food-related topics that will most likely piss you off, but it’s your turn next, so just hang on. Milk chocolate is not worth the calories, but dark chocolate deserves its own… Read More
10 Minute Pale Ale Puff Pastry + Beer Caramel Apple Tartlets LOOK AT THOSE LAYERS! I need to admit to you that I used to be one of those “puff pastry is a crazy amount of work so just buy it” people. Until today. TODAY I made it with a food processor and it took ten… Read More
Green Beer Mac N Cheese (no food dye) This is your reminder not to take things too seriously. You know, the “don’t sweat the small stuff, also it’s all small stuff,” reminder that we should all just relax and take it easy.
