I’ve been waiting for an excuse to make white chicken chili again. It’s one of those dinners I could happily eat three nights in a row. #FoodSky #HomeCooking

I wanted the pumpkin bundt cake, just not the $50 part. So I made one at home and honestly… this might be a problem. 🎃 #FoodSky #BakingSky

Chili belongs on waffles. Specifically cornbread waffles. Crispy edges, little pockets for all the good stuff. A bowl could never. #FoodSky #HomeCooking

15 minutes to homemade cobbler is exactly my kind of summer dessert. Peach + blackberry is the move. 🍑🫐 tastesbetterfromscratch.com/peach-blackb... #FoodSky #Recipe

controversial kitchen opinion: 45 extra minutes for homemade green enchilada sauce is 100% worth it. canned doesn't come close. fight me.

peak peach season won't last forever. homemade vanilla ice cream + peaches picked at their sweetest = some things don't need improving. #PeachSeason

the pickle dip that became a real problem at our house. cream cheese, greek yogurt, fresh dill, crunchy pickles + a splash of brine. dangerously easy.

Bagel people...I need your wisdom. I’m testing flour combos and chasing that chewy, tight crumb. What’s the one bagel-making trick you swear by? #FoodSky #BakingSky

canned sauce built different or nah?? 🤔 testing my homemade green sauce against Las Palmas today bc I need to know if the extra 45 min of blending/simmering is even worth it. 🍜
A can of Las Palmas Green Chile Enchilada Sauce next to a glass jar labeled 'Green Enchilada Sauce' filled with homemade green sauce, surrounded by fresh cilantro, limes, and tomatillos on a wood table."
