I hope this holiday season has been a wonderful one for you, your family and friends. As you have probably already surmised if you’ve read any of my posts or seen any of my YouTube videos, I just love this time of year!!! Yes, I’m that person who would love for the Christmas season to…
Oven-Only Recipes
Set it, let it do its thing, and come back to something great. These recipes use the oven as the sole heat source — no stovetop juggling required. Sheet pans, baking dishes, a single rack. Simple setup, real results.
Merry Christmas Cookies (feat. Natalie Korzon)
‘Tis the season to be jolly…and really, what makes you jollier than Homemade Christmas Cookies. Just ask Santa! This year I knew I wanted to do a Tiny Kitchen Big Taste episode about making and decorating Homemade Christmas Cookies. After all, I’ll be visiting the best niece and nephew an uncle could ask for this…
Perfectly Brined Roasted Turkey Breast
Thanksgiving is one of my most favorite holidays ever…because it usually means a ton a family and friends getting together and, well, that just makes me happy! It is also a time to experiment in the kitchen a little bit. I don’t know what it is, but I always feel the need to try out…
Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes
When I think of Thanksgiving, I think Mashed Potatoes. But it seems over the years, we’ve always have had it the same buttery way. Although, I don’t know if you can count that period in the 90s, during the fat-free craze, that we used fake powdered butter. #Ashamed Aside from that, in the Fucci household,…
Baked Brie
I have always loved cheese. Admittedly, as a kid, I probably liked it too much. I remember going to Pizza Hut and I would always get a salad from the salad bar. How does that relate to cheese, you ask? Well, my Pizza Hut salad consisted of three small leaves of iceberg lettuce, alfalfa sprouts,…
Martha Stewart’s Soft and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
I have always loved cookies. When I was a kid, we had one of those Cookie Monster Cookie Jars with big beady eyes on top. I remember it like it was just yesterday…coming home from school, heading over to the counter with the big blue monster on it, grabbing the eyes with great anticipation. I…
Ina Garten’s Perfect Roast Chicken
Sometimes, certain dishes seem intimidating to make. I think roasted chicken is one of those things. If you’ve never cooked a whole chicken before, you just don’t know where to begin. How do I season it? How long do I cook it? What do I do with the bird when I take it out of…
Red Lobster’s Cheddar Bay Biscuits
Three simple words: Cheddar Bay Biscuits. Translation: Happiness. If you know me, you know that I am a huge crab fan. I love nothing more than crablegs. So, if I’m celebrating a special occasion…or even if I’m not, you take me for crablegs and you will see a permanent smile on my face. Now, if…
Ree Drummond’s Perfect Pot Roast
We kick off October with a new series at Tiny Kitchen Big Taste! This month is all about Recipe Remixes. Just like a singer would cover a great song, we’re covering some of the most popular, best tasting recipes out there. We start off the month with a recipe from one of my most favorite…
Bruschetta
Tomatoes! Yum! At least that’s how most everyone sees it. I guess I am not most everyone. I know, saying that I don’t like the main ingredient in one of my recipes is not the greatest sales pitch, but I’d rather be honest with you than make you think that I think raw tomatoes are…
Frico
Sometimes the simplest things in life are the best. There is no denying that this recipe is simple. But it is also one of the best. I don’t say that lightly because if I’m going to claim that something is one of the best, it better live up to the billing. Frico does. Before I…
One Minute Cobbler
Cobbler. Just the mention of the word brings a huge smile to my face. It’s seriously one of my most favorite desserts. Any kind of fruit, I’m not picky…raspberries, blackberries, cherries, blueberries, peaches, you name it. Heck, even combine a couple of them…you won’t hear me complaining. Thinking about topping the warm cobbler with some…
