Foodie Favorites – February 24, 2016

foodie favorites - february 26, 2016 // my bacon-wrapped life

The cutest sign we stumbled upon in Berkeley on an impromptu walk on a gorgeous February day! I could not agree more.

Hey everyone! How’s your week going? I absolutely cannot wait for this weekend – we are heading down to LA tomorrow for a weekend trip to Santa Barbara with my parents, Brad’s sister, and her boyfriend to visit our wedding venue and do our wedding food tasting!! This is clearly the best part of being engaged, so I am over the moon and can’t wait to try all the food, drink all the wine, and eat all the cake. I hope you have a delicious weekend to look forward to as well! In the meantime, let’s keep ourselves food-happy with this week’s Foodie Favorites!

These sausage kale French bread pizzas need to make an appearance in my life ASAP. So many of my favorite things!!

Slow cooker cannellini bean soup is so winter-perfect. I’m craving it even here in sunny California!

shakshuka // my bacon-wrapped life

I’d like to introduce you to my new favorite breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

It’s healthy. It’s sexy. It’s impressive enough for company yet super easy to throw together. It’s shakshuka, and if you haven’t had it before, it’s just straight-up the best.

Boozy Bourbon Tiramisu Parfaits

boozy bourbon tiramisu parfaits // my bacon-wrapped life

Guys, I may be the worst future-wife ever. I bake almost every weekend, cook nearly every night of the week, and it’s taken me almost 6 years to make my fiancé’s very favorite dessert, classic Italian tiramisu.

Well this year, I decided that day had come. I whipped this up yesterday morning to be ready for a special Valentine’s Day dessert, and it turned out so easy and delicious I couldn’t help but share it with you guys. Admittedly, I totally food blogger-ed it up with bourbon (it’s my ultimate secret weapon swoon ingredient) and mason jars, but hey, it’s still the classic coffee-soaked ladyfingers with mascarpone situation. Italian grandmas, don’t hate me!

Missing these incredible Seattle dumplings this week! Vacation food is the best food.

Hi friends! How’s your week going? We’ve been keeping super busy around here and are planning on enjoying a low-key Valentine’s Day this weekend with a fancy homemade dinner, a bottle or two of wine, and maybe some Zoolander 2 (every woman’s dream, right?!). I can’t wait!! I hope you have a fun day planned with the people you love most, too (and maybe some sexy pink donuts). Here are this week’s Foodie Favorites!

I am totally drooling over this brown butter banana pudding. I love banana pudding, banana cream pie, etc. and the brown butter absolutely takes it over the top!

My soul is craving this spaghetti pie with pecorino and black pepper. I think this needs to happen in my house ASAP!
