    Save money, eat well and live healthy: Take control of your diet by cooking. It's easier than you think.

    If "I got food at home" is your dining mantra for If "I got food at home" is your dining mantra for 2022, take another look at some occasional #mealprep. If not to have full meals prepped and ready, at least to DIY your own frozen foods. You can save money and have much healthier meals by avoiding packaged products. I made a triple batch of these Turkey-Mushroom Meatballs with Green Olives and had weeks of occasional easy dinners using these tips:
..
🍄 Cut up the veggies with a food processor. I like to use the pulse function and process one vegetable at a time to get each the perfect size.
..
🥄 Get a cookie scoop! I make uniform meatballs with a medium cookie scoop I got from @oxo years ago. It makes shaping super fast and helps the meatballs cook evenly.
..
🥶 Once your meatballs are shaped, and raw, arrange them in a single layer and freeze. After they're frozen you can pop them in a ziploc to bake just what you want for meals to come.
..
Get the recipe for these meatballs on my site, linked in the bio!

    Every Thanksgiving I make my Mommy Edith's Sweet P Every Thanksgiving I make my Mommy Edith's Sweet Potato Pie 🥧. Or at least I try to. See, before she passed I finally got her to share her secret recipe. Only, this was the recipe: "take something out of a cookbook and adjust it until you like the taste." So over the last 10 years, I've been baking, adjusting, and baking again to recreate her perfect balance of sugar and spice. @Evernote has been there to record my exact ratio of cinnamon to nutmeg, capture notes on the different baking methods, save photos of pie outcomes, and record my review of each taste test. I've been fine-tuning with each pie to get it just right, like my grandma would make. I think it's just perfect now.

Preserving a family secret or developing a new recipe? Write it with @Evernote. It's been my go-to tool for brainstorming, blog-writing, and business planning for years! #Ad #Evernote
    Want to feel more confident this Thanksgiving? Hit Want to feel more confident this Thanksgiving? Hit pause on your recipe search and get organized. A solid plan for how the meal will come together takes the pressure off of those holiday expectations. After all, the best meal is one the chef also gets to enjoy!
..
Here's my tried and true tips for planning a feast:
🍂Write it out. I use @Evernote to consolidate all of my brainstorming in one place. From recaps on last year's party to pictures of beautiful tablescapes, the note-taking app goes with me from the market to my kitchen to keep on track of everything.
.
🍂Delegate. It's a family affair so get a little help to bring it all together. Ask early, appreciate loudly.
.
🍂Balance your menu. I'm not team 'Don't experiment on Thanksgiving,' but everything in moderation. Mix new recipes that might require a bit more focus with tried-and-true recipes you can whip up blindfolded. This helps to even out your energy and ensures there are some crowd-pleasers on the dinner table.
.
🍂Calculate your shopping list. No one likes emergency runs to the market on turkey day. To make sure my shopping is handled in one trip, I make my list in Evernote because I can easily access it on-the-go with the mobile app. I like to create a table with the ingredients on one axis and the links to my recipes on the other. Then I mark out the quantities needed for each so I can add them up and buy just enough.
.
🍂Schedule the cooking. Perhaps my most important party-planning outline is when to get everything done. I start the schedule well in advance to plan the table setting and ingredient prep. I'll mix dry spices or brine turkeys days ahead, bake early in the morning, and save the big day for cooking up ingredients that need to be hot on the table at dinner time.

    Happy Cinco de Mayo - Taco Tuesday - Coronavirus l Happy Cinco de Mayo - Taco Tuesday - Coronavirus lockdown day 1 million! I decided to make the best of it with carnitas tacos fully from scratch. That's slow-cooked pork shoulder, corn tortillas and roasted tomato salsa with plenty of fresh lime, onion and cilantro on top. Absolutely delicious!! Plus, a Corona for the irony 🤣🌮🍺🌮

I made this salad with ingredients from my first @grownyc_brooklyn Fresh Food Box plus a few items I had on hand. I'd almost forgotten how good local ingredients can be with even the simplest preparation. These red potatoes were as sweet as strawberries after roasting! Here's everything I used:
🥬Spring Mix & Kale
🥔Red Potatoes, Zucchini, Spring Onion and Red pepper roasted with s&p, thyme and EVOO
🥚6 minute soft boiled egg
🐟Tuna with mustard and mayo
🥗Fresh vinaigrette with garlic, oregano and cider vinegar

I hope you've had a delicious weekend!

    With Easter coming up this weekend, I decided to t With Easter coming up this weekend, I decided to try my hand at baking hot cross buns once again. They came out incredible this time using @kingarthurflour's "Easy Hot Cross Buns" recipe! Much better than the dry buns I made for a holiday party in December. The big change? This time I took them out of the pan to cool on a wire rack as soon as they came out of the oven. This stopped them from losing all of their moisture as steam in the hot, crowded pan. ♨️

These buns (sans icing) are perfectly paired with my fish cakes and spicy mayo #recipe shared last Easter. Get that recipe now at RunawayApricot.com, link in bio. .. Are you still planning an #Easter meal during lockdown? What are you cooking?
