Happy 2020 friends! I hope you all had a lovely holiday season.
I took a much needed break over the holidays; I’m feeling refreshed and ready to get back in the kitchen, developing and photographing recipes to share with you!
From recipes to make in January and my favourite cookbooks, let’s get to it!
I was gifted Half Baked Harvest’s cookbook, Super Simple, for Christmas and I am loving it! There’s so many recipes I want to make but my favourite so far is the Sesame Orange Chicken. In general, Half Baked Harvest is one of my favourite blogs to cook from so if you’re in need of a comforting dish this Winter, these Crockpot Cider Braised Short Ribs with Sage Butter Mashed Potatoes are UNREAL.
January always has me craving cozy dishes. We’ve been really enjoying these Turkey Meatballs in Spicy Tomato Sauce from Ambitious Kitchen and this Risotto from Bon Appetit.
Let’s just say I’m here for the bright fruits & vegetables of the month AND the cozy dishes! Plus I’m always in the mood for brunch recipes like frittata.
So, here are some recipes to enjoy in January:
Beets – Roasted Harvest Vegetable Bowl
Carrots – Sheet Pan Roasted Carrots
Citrus – Tropical Blood Orange Smoothie
Spinach – Mojito Smoothie
Swiss Chard – Swiss Chard, Goat Cheese & Leek Frittata
Winter Squash – Roasted Butternut Squash & Apple Soup
And, as I finish up my holiday break I’m stocking up my freezer with some healthier snacks too like my Cinnamon Spiced Granola Bars and Lemon Coconut Power Balls. What are you favourite recipes for weekday snack?? I’d love to know in the comments below!
Until the next cooking adventure,
Jess
