Drumroll, please… the week of the Great American Beer Festival is here! GABF is an annual celebration of everything wonderful in the world of craft brewing, hosted right here in Denver by the Brewer’s Association.
Mediterranean
Tzatziki Orzo Salad
I shared a recipe for addicting tzatziki sauce – aka that insanely delicious, tangy yogurt sauce on gyros and kebabs and anything Greek – in the first year of this blog. Aside from the hilariously awful yellow photos, that recipe has held up for years, and it’s our summertime go-to for everything from grilled meats
Beetroot Risotto with Goat Cheese & Thyme
Impress your Valentine with this brilliantly garnet beetroot risotto with creamy goat cheese & earthy thyme! This dish is packed with a whole pound of fresh beets so it’s light and refreshing, not at all heavy like most thick, cream-based risottos.
Za’atar Olive Spread
Today’s recipe puts the spotlight on za’atar, my latest spice blend addiction! Za’atar’s woodsy, nutty, tangy flavor is the perfect complement to salty olives and bright lemon juice.
Loaded Falafel Pizza
Everything you love about the quintessential favorite Middle Eastern sandwich, now on a pizza! We’re layering all the great sandwich stuffings on top of a crisp baked falafel crust for a fresh, healthy meal.
Turkish Mint Ayran
There’s no better way to beat the heat than with a tall, ice-cold glass of refreshing ayran! Frothy, minty, and just a tiny bit salty, ayran is here for every too-hot afternoon and too-spicy dinner.
Gorgonzola Steak Bites
Last weekend we went to a wedding that was the most beautiful, joyous celebration of love. This also happened to be my soul sister’s wedding, on my birthday, to a truly wonderful man – so it really couldn’t have been a more perfect day.
Feasting & Fasting, American-Italian Style
Happy all-of-the holidays everyone!!
Addicting Tzatziki Sauce
Cool and creamy is the comfort food of summer, guys. I love me some sauces (like, on everything) but now that we’re hitting triple digits outside it’s gotta be chilled.
