When you go glamping, you have to have some ✨glamorous✨ food to go with it!
We recently visited @mendocino_grove , a beautiful glamping spot on the coast of Northern California. We lived - and ate - like kings. We stopped at a winery + goat farm along the way, enjoyed the Grove’s hassle-free breakfasts, and cooked a lot over a campfire!
Swipe to see what we ate while glamping!
1 - Our first stop was a winery - @pennyroyalfarm. Beautiful grounds and mindblowingly great wine.
2 - @pennyroyalfarm is also a goat farm! Delicious goat cheeses.
3 - @mendocino_grove includes breakfast and coffee! Great way to start the day.
4 - Steak and eggs - yes, featuring a bottle of Pinot Noir we bought from @pennyroyalfarm.
5 - Surf and turf - steak, jumbo wild shrimp, bell peppers, and a campfire potato.
6 - Eggs on gluten free bread made with @theloopywhisk recipe.
7 - Bacon and egg hash.

Have you ever dreamed of catching a fish...and eat

Have you ever dreamed of catching a fish...and eating it too?⁠
⁠
🙋‍♀️ I have! I’ve always been fascinated by the idea of cooking and eating a fish that I caught. It's like being a SURVIVOR-WOMAN who can fully provide for herself!⁠
⁠
here’s what made it possible 🙂 ⁠
⁠
🐟 doing some basic research on fishing is key, especially if you’re not experienced⁠
⁠
🐟to secure our catch, we hired a fishing charter. We’ve gone fishing multiple times, but the fishing charter was an efficient, productive, and FUN experience. ⁠big thanks to Captain Carl!
⁠
🐟 and the best part - cooking your catch! Fresh fish doesn’t need anything fancy to make it shine - even just salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon will do. In my previous post, I showcase my fish tacos from our fresh king salmon and flounder.⁠
⁠
It was an amazing experience and not hard to pull off with this preparation.⁠
⁠
Have you done a catch and cook before? I’d love to hear how yours went - drop me a comment on your catch and cook experience 🎣⁠

Have you ever heard the term “catch and cook?”

Have you ever heard the term “catch and cook?” 🎣⁠
⁠
It’s all about catching a fish yourself, cooking it, and eating it! I went on my first catch and cook adventure recently, fishing for king salmon in the Seattle Puget Sound. We had a fantastic time and an even better meal! ⁠
⁠
What did we choose to make with our fresh fish? ⁠
⁠
Fish tacos! This choice was inspired by the reasonably priced avocadoes and in-season mangoes we spotted at the store. Let’s break it down:⁠
⁠
🐟 freshly caught King Salmon and flounder, lightly dusted with flour and fried⁠
🐟 tortillas⁠
🐟 mango salsa made with fresh mango, tomatoes, cilantro, and lime juice⁠
🐟 pico de gallo⁠
🐟 avocado mash⁠
🐟 julienned raw cabbage⁠
🐟 cilantro lime crema made with sour cream, mayonnaise, cilantro, and lime juice ⁠
⁠
Honestly, you don’t need an intense meal plan for fresh fish - even plain salt, pepper, and lemon is a fantastic way to enjoy your fresh catch. But I always like my food a little bit ✨extra✨ so I can’t help but put something elaborate together!⁠
⁠
Have you ever done a catch and cook, or wanted to? Drop a comment if you have!

If you love corn cheese, you’ll love these air fried corn cheese and shrimp egg rolls! ⁠
⁠
Served with a cilantro lime crema sauce that makes the flavors SING 🎤and lightens up this decadent appetizer.⁠
⁠
I toyed with the idea of making corn cheese into a dip, but then I thought ‘how can I wrap the carb around this cheesy goodness so it’s an easy finger food?’ Thus the corn cheese egg roll was born.⁠
⁠
Make this recipe for your next social eating event and it's sure to impress! Recipe is in the link in my bio or https://makedinnerplans.com/recipe/air-fryer-corn-cheese-and-shrimp-egg-rolls-with-cilantro-lime-crema/⁠

🎄 nothing says Christmas like a khachapuri!
Piping hot, cheesy, eggy goodness with delicious bread in a boat shape! I make it as an amazing appetizer to share while the main dinner is cooking.
Adjaruli Khachapuri is a popular Georgian cheese bread in a boat shape! I love the egg that goes on top and gets mixed in.

Hello friends and happy holidays!! It's been a w

Hello friends and happy holidays!!
It's been a while since I've posted - things have just been crazy and cooking lately has become just a means for survival. Things aren't going to slow down either with Christmas fast approaching...But I am in love with Christmas cooking and Christmas COCKTAILS!
I'd love to share this unconventional cocktail with you - I'm calling it "Pear, Spice, and Everything Nice."
The reason why I say it's unconventional is the use of homemade pear puree. It's a bit pulpy and there's a bit to chew (depending on how fine your blender gets and how ripe your pears are). But if you are a fan of lychee jelly, you will like these fruity bits! 🙋‍♀️
🍐 To make pear puree:
- dice up really ripe Bartlett pears into a saucepot with a quarter cup of water
- simmer until soft, 10min
- let cool
- blend
🍹 Cocktail ratio for one
- 1 oz lime juice
- 2 oz ginger beer
- 2 oz pear puree
- 1.5 oz Espolon tequila
Rim glass with turbinado sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Pour drink into your glass with ice.
Whip egg whites (room temp works best) and float on top. Grate more nutmeg on top and garnish with rosemary.
🥂Cheers! Take a moment to take in the aromatic scent of nutmeg and rosemary before sipping the fluffy cloud of egg white and enjoying the flavor of fresh pear!

Koji is the secret ingredient inspiring today's dinner plan!⁠
⁠
Never heard of koji before? Koji is a fermented rice inoculated with mold and is used to make soy sauce, miso, sake, mirin, etc. ⁠
⁠
I used @aedanfermented 's lovely koji products that I scooped from the farmer's market, and relied heavily on recipes from @justonecookbook to make this complete meal package:⁠
⁠
⁠
⁠🍗 shio koji chicken⁠
🎃 simmered kabocha with shio koji⁠
🥒 sagohachi quick pickles ⁠
🍚 short-grain rice⁠

New flavor alert: honey allspice ice cream! ⁠
⁠
I thought of this ice cream flavor because I was looking for a special ice cream to go with with my nectarine mascarpone tart - and going vanilla a la mode was just not EXTRA enough for me. ⁠
⁠
(Plus, a good homemade vanilla requires some nice vanilla beans, which have been quite expensive as of late, but I digress.) ⁠
⁠
This honey allspice ice cream is lightly sweet and lightly spiced, which makes it a great pairing with fruity desserts like a nectarine tart or an apple crisp. ⁠
⁠
It's also just amazingly good on its own. While I crafted this recipe to accompany something, I found it extremely addicting to eat alone. ⁠
⁠

It's stone fruit season and it's time to celebrate

It's stone fruit season and it's time to celebrate juicy and sweet in-season nectarines!⁠ 🍑
⁠
Stone fruit is generally in season from May until September here in California, and includes nectarines, peaches, cherries, apricots, plums, and more! The 'stone' refers to the stone-like pit that is the seed of the fruit.⁠
⁠
To capitalize on the taste of fresh nectarines, I've packed this recipe with 3 very special flavor affinities.⁠
Read more on my blog to find out what those are 😉
