Lady Lair LIVE

Summer is one of the few times a year when a salad taste just right. See here my Celery, 'Cukes & Zucchini, I created with ingredients on hand about 5 minutes before my guest, sommelier, owner, and vintner of Ripe Life Wines, Mary McAuley stopped by. A Jersey Shore girl after my own heart, cheers & Happy Fourth. 

I love Sarah Tracey for so many reasons: she's beautiful, smart, awesome, down-to-earth, works for MARTHA STEWART and loves to booze. I mean... she also helped me make, Fried Egg Tortilla this week on Lady Lair LIVE. 

Few ladies are cooler than Mia Rigden. Publicist and marketing powerhouse turned wellness coach, Mia's company, RASA, offers personalized nutrition and encourages healthy lifestyle habits through holistic wellness coaching, delicious recipes, and meal plans. Join us as we make this kitchen sink Cold Weather Salad.

I love changing traditional Italian food, the little devil in me relishes taking something people already love and making it either healthier or more modern. That's what badass lady chef (of Lilia and Spoon University) do with my Whole Wheat Fall Cous Cous Risotto made with one of my favorites: The Crossings Sauvignon Blanc. Now, that's a ladies night. 

A long time ago, I met a (French) woman at Haven's Kitchen that ate honey turmeric toast every single morning - and she was gorgeous and chic and amazing. This dish is inspired by her. Join me and Foursquare's Kayleigh Harrington as we girl talk and make Honey Turmeric Labneh with Poached Eggs & Hot Butter.

A few years ago I had the privilege of working with and befriending the owner of Maman, a French-inspired cafe serving the best chocolate chip cookies in the city. Flash forward and there are locations popping up every minute, including the new Maman Marché and a restaurant popup in Paris. Hang as we chat and cook two end-of-summer inspired "French-ish" dishes, Radish Top Pesto with Radishes and Squash and Zucchini Carpaccio.

Who doesn't love Phoebe Lapine? No one, that's who. We are savoring (literally) the last bits of summer and talking about her new book, The Wellness Project, diving into all things "better for you but not extreme" in beauty, food, and even fertility. Also, we make this Grilled Mexican Street Corn Salad.

No one does bubbly like Michelle Williams - not the actress or singer - but the author of the NYC food blog, "Coffee & Champagne." Join us as we make an end-of-summer treat, Spicy Baby 'Cukes, that will impressive yourself and any guests. Watch out, Top Chef.
