Asparagus with Whipped Ricotta & Honey
It’s grilling season friends! And that means as many backyard hangs as possible. It also means leaning into simple meats and vegetables with delicious dips and sauces to up the ante. I love not having to reinvent the wheel when grilling. Just last weekend I tried Rachael Good Eats’ lemon pesto and immediately had friends…

Crockpot Short Rib Hash
Post-partum can really do wild things to your body. While life is much more restrictive when pregnant, you are building life. It’s wonderful and inspiring and you literally glow. Post-partum is the ugly step-sister. You’re tired and have extra weight still on, and for many, are still surrendering your body to your newborn child if…

Crispy Baked Brussel Sprouts
Well I can report that a 5 ½ hour road trip with two kids under 18 months is do-able! And an act of pure willpower. Nick and I ventured up the coast this weekend to celebrate a family engagement – an event we knew we didn’t want to miss – so we packed up the…

TJ’s Vegan Dill Potato Gratin
In honor of my in-laws coming down for a weekend of LA adventures, walks, delicious meals, and of course, the list of honey-do’s we’ve been building up around the house for the last few weeks, I am sharing a recipe I like to make for the effortless backyard BBQ dinners for a group. As the…

Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Please forgive me for these photos. I am still working on making my dishes look aesthetically pleasing. A difficult task if you are not cooking meals in the middle of the day with time to let it cool completely and ‘artfully curate’ the plate. I am not a food stylist. I am a mother of…

Caesar Salad Smash Tacos
If you have tried my Bahn Mi Smash Tacos, then you know how amazing the viral smash taco trend can be. It’s a taco but it’s a different flavor profile than your usual Latino cuisine. I will admit I tried the In’N’Out smash taco recipes going around online awhile back that required you to make…

Irish Taco Bowls
Forgive me if I have already said this – my brain is quickly disintegrating in the final weeks of pregnancy – but this time around I have had the (dis)pleasure of experiencing food aversions and cravings. With Koa, I lucked out. I woke up wanting a yogurt bowl with granola and fresh fruit, but that…

Italian Sausage & Eggplant Casserole
Last week I ranted about restaurant remakes and ambitious creative cooking, this week, I will keep it simple. This is a dish my mother introduced me to over the holidays. (Yes, I am ignoring the fact I took a few weeks off to travel internationally and have not said HNY to you all yet… still…

Din Tai Fung Asian Cucumbers
When I first started sipcookenjoy, I had major aspirations. Not aspirations like becoming the next big influencer, but aspirations like annual recipe round-ups, restaurant remakes, themed weekly meals, cookbook roulette, etc. Cooking can be so fun and I wanted to inspire not only myself but others to have fun with it rather than dinner feeling…

Baked Spinach & Feta Potatoes
Looking for a fun side to your holiday meals? Look no further than these baked potatoes. I love a good baked potato dish as a side when you hit that time of year when your meals need to feed more bellies than you are used to cooking for. I never know how much rice to…
