This new monthly series is all about what’s actually been happening in my kitchen — the dinners I’ve cooked and loved, the shortcuts that saved us, and the meals I’m excited to make next. Think of it as a casual, cozy check-in that gives you real-life meal ideas to borrow for your own table.

Since we just got back from Japan four days ago, September has been a mix of pre-trip fridge clean-out meals, very jet-lagged breakfasts, and the cozy fall recipes I can’t wait to cook as the month goes on.

✨ Recipes mentioned in this episode:

• Burger Bowls

• Black Bean Soup

• Harvest Chili

If you try one of these, let me know what you think — I love hearing what’s on your table, too.
