Bonbons and the holidays go hand-in-hand, and this year, I'm sending some extra love to Southern Living for their oh-so-decadent Peppermint Bonbon Cookies. They do require a little time and patience, but are worth every minute. I decided to whip up a batch when I was working from home and, while no part of the recipe is particularly difficult, I highly recommend taking these on when you ...

Oven-Roasted Green Beans Two Ways
When it comes the the holidays, sides are just as important as the main dish, right? I think so, too. That's why when I was working up a healthier alternative to green bean casserole for my Thanksgiving menu, I crafted up two recipes. And since I couldn't decide which was better - why not do both? I knew I wanted to incorporate almonds, so I grabbed a bag of Trader Joe's pre-cut green beans ...

Black Bean + Chicken Enchilada Soup
Fall is here! While I have yet to indulge in my inaugural pumpkin spice latte, I cannot contain my excitement. I know I speak for all of us at Fridge to Fork when I say that growing up in the deep south states of Georgia and Alabama, we didn't really have all four seasons. It was either cook-an-egg-on-the-sidewalk scorching hot in the summer, or "meh, I can probably still wear shorts and just a ...
