 As I write this at noon in Nashville, we are awaiting the "snowpocalypse" of 2018. I don't know about you, but when I'm snowed in, nothing is better than a little comfort food. Something warm, creamy, starchy, and hearty always hits the spot. Potatoes are one of my favorite foods, and when they are in the form of the Southern-staple, Hashbrown Casserole, they're to die for. 

Happy meatless Monday everyone! I am definitely a meat eater, but I do enjoy making several of my meals meatless each week. It's a great way to consume more plant-based foods, plus it is quite budget-friendly! And one of my favorite meatless meals is a good veggie burger. But I think it is hard to find a store-bought one that is "meaty" enough AND holds together when you bite into it. So I discovered that it is not that hard to make my own.

Nothing quite says comfort food like an ooey-gooey, warm grilled cheese sandwich. And while you can't go wrong with a classic American cheese version, one thing I love about recipe development is putting new spins on old favorites, so my perfect grilled cheese sandwich combines both sweet and savory flavors. Sweet from fresh, plump and juicy California grapes and local honey and savory from the creamy brie and tangy blue cheeses.
