My favorite appetizer, the “lollipop corndogs”, at our go-to burger place in Berkeley (home of this beauty). Totally appropriate thing to eat before a giant burger, yes?
Hey guys! Holy wow – I can’t believe that I just typed “September” up there! It feels so weird for it to be September and still feel so relentlessly hot and sunny and summer-y. The Bay Area typically has a pretty strong Indian summer, and this summer it’s basically been an insanely-freakin-hot normal summer, so I’m not expecting it to cool down anytime soon. That doesn’t mean I’m not super excited for Fall recipes though – you know I’ll be the gal cooking up some pumpkin in my steaming air conditioning-less apartment. No shame! But I’m not (quite) ready for that yet, so let’s enjoy some more summer food – here are this week’s Foodie Favorites!
This summer skillet gnocchi looks like the perfect summer dinner. I’m totally craving that toasty corn and that pillowy gnocchi!
Perfect summer cocktail, anyone? This fig and bourbon summer smash looks amazing! I LOVE the idea of pairing sweet figs and bourbon. I might have to bust out our cocktail shaker at home to try this one!
These Belgian buttermilk waffles with roasted peaches and vanilla mascarpone are totally drool-worthy. I need to get a waffle maker stat! (Cough, cough, wedding registry!)
This corn chowder salad is such a clever idea, and looks so simple and satisfying – my favorite kind of cooking! Corn and bacon just never get old to me.
Uh, this cinnamon sugar peach bourbon upside down cake looks AMAZING. I have been totally craving nostalgic desserts lately, and I think this upside down cake is in short order! Especially since we know how well peaches and bourbon go together.
How gooey and chocolate-y and amazing are these fudgy pudgy brownies?! Major swoon.
Hope you enjoyed this week’s summer-lovin’ round-up! Have the best week (and long weekend, HELL YES)!! XOXO
