Catch my Labor Day segment on the Today Show making Italian sausage burgers!

It was such a treat to be interviewed by The Washington Post about 15 Minute Meals — they shared the inspirations behind the book and a few of the “clever shortcut[s]” in the book. They also included one of my favorite recipes from the book, the shrimp fried rice that uses the flavorful combo of sriracha, ginger and garlic powder. Give it a look!

Any soup that starts with canned beans sounds like a cheap-out, but this one is gloriously full of flavor because of the zing of the raw garlic, the earthy freshness of the rosemary and the hint of umami from the Worcestershire. You can heft this up with a lot of things - greens like spinach or kale; meaty proteins like chopped ham or sausage; or the crunchy texture of croutons or panko. But I still love it as a silky smooth (and unintentionally vegan!) soup on its own with a hunk of bread to scrape up all the extras.

It was such a joy to be on the Today Show and make two recipes from 15 Minute Meals!

Such a pleasure to go on Rachael Ray and share this recipe from Modern Freezer Meals! Watch the video and then make the full recipe below!

So fun sharing a recipe from Modern Freezer meals on the Today Show!

This recipe achieves that wonderful double bonus of being quick to make and quick to reheat. Portobellos are filling while also fulfilling any dietary restrictions; they cook quickly and add a meaty flavor without being obtrusive; and, lesser known, they hold up in the freezer like a dream. You can heat these up as a quick vegetarian side or have them as an entire meal. Either way, you'll have something delicious on the table in minutes.
