We’ve reached the finish line! Here with our last recipe in the month of dinners blog relay is Yossy Arefi-Afshar of Apt. 2B  Baking Co. While Yossy normally focuses on sweets on her blog, she was kind enough to join us and bake this delicious pizza recipe. First things first, the sweets. Here are a few that I can’t wait to try […]

Today’s recipe comes from another friend of Simply Stated, Cara Eisenpress of Big Girls, Small Kitchen whom you might remember from her Dairy-Free Coconut Caramel Ice Cream and her Slow-Cooker Hummus. Cara is a master of easy recipes. A few of my favorites: Vegan Broccoli-Leek Soup (you don’t even miss the dairy!), Herb & Lemon Buttered Popcorn, and these Swiss […]

It’s my turn to pick up the baton (Knife? Spatula? Apron?) in our Month of Dinners Blog Relay. I made the Turkey Cutlet Sandwiches With Oven Fries, a recipe that far exceeded my expectations. My sandwich-making skills are pretty straightforward—layer on some cold cuts, cheese, mustard or some type of tasty spread (no mayo, please), lettuce and tomato, and maybe […]

Between teaching and publishing a cookbook, an e-book, and an email newsletter, this busy blogger whips up quick bites like pepperoni palmiers, slow-cooked pulled beef sandwiches, and make-ahead mini cheesecakes. Head on […]

Rounding out this week of our blog relay, we have the lovely Tracy Benjamin of Shutterbean. If you haven’t been over to her blog yet, go now! Not only does she have great recipes (like this killer granola, these dark chocolate cake doughnuts, and my all-time favorite roasted Brussels sprouts, butternut squash, and cranberries), but she takes amazing step-by-step photos […]

Today’s recipe comes from Maryann Jacobsen, the blogger behind Raise Healthy Eaters. But not only is Maryann a blogger and a mom, she’s also a registered dietitian, so she really focuses on healthy meals. A few of the ones I can’t wait to try: 20-minute shrimp & broccoli surprise, slow-cooker black bean soup, and of course 5 easy lunches to […]

Today’s recipe comes from Kate Nicholson on of the bloggers behind Modern Baby, a great site for decor, style, and health info for parents. Kate covers all kinds of topics for modern baby, but we especially love when she covers reading & book suggestions and her Teaching Character series. Click over to Modern Baby to see how Kate liked our […]

I’m continuing our Month of Dinners Blog Relay today with a delicious recipe that’s perfect for a crisp fall evening. There was no question I wanted to make the Chorizo-Stuffed Acorn Squash because I am a lover of all squash–summer or winter. Plus, I needed a good excuse to use the acorn squash I received in my CSA box this week. […]
