  • Semi-Homemade Mushroom Buns

    Semi-Homemade Mushroom Buns

    We have posted a few pictures on our Instagram of us experimenting (and mostly eating) steamed buns. When we are trying not to eat as much meat or have extra mushrooms on hand, we love using them as the base for the buns. What we love about mushrooms is that they soak up all of…

    Momofuku Inspired Chilled Spicy Noodles

    If it isn’t abundantly clear, we love ourselves a good noodle bowl. It was love at first bite when we first tried Momofuku in New York and have made it a point every time we go to the city to stop by for noodles, steamed buns, and any and everything else on the menu. One…

  • Minestrone: Spring Edition

    Minestrone: Spring Edition

    We love a good soup recipe just about anytime of the year, but particularly when it’s snowing and we are in quarantine. This soup comes together quickly and only gets better as it sits on the stove. We made this recipe last week and started it mid morning; it was perfect by the time we…

  • Italian Sandwiches

    Italian Sandwiches

    Making almost 21 meals a week for four adults has its upsides, like lots of blogging content, but can get exhausting day after day. We often find that we are craving our favorite restaurants, but due to proximity and restaurant closures a lot of places aren’t feasible during the workweek for lunch. To keep ourselves…

  • Spring Risotto with Carrot & Asparagus Salad

    Spring Risotto with Carrot & Asparagus Salad

    On top of everything else in the world making us feel a little crazy, nothing can ever beat Denver weather. On Saturday we were in shorts and t-shirts getting sunburned and by Sunday morning the ground was covered in snow. During this time of year, we like to have meals that can help us transition…

  • Nearly Eggless Quiche

    Nearly Eggless Quiche

    This recipe dates back 2012 when we went to brunch at our cousin Deb’s house in Connecticut. While most of the world loves quiche, Tuck & Tate’s moms hate quiche, so we were a little panicked when we heard that quiche was on the menu. So much so that we made a pact to grab…

  • Lemon Chicken with Artichokes

    Lemon Chicken with Artichokes

    Happy Passover! We hope that everyone had a nice Seder and a great night of eating. This year’s Seder “was not like all other nights” for a lot of reasons, and we hope that this year was still a good evening to connect with family and friends, even if it was virtually.  We had a…

  • Cucumber Lemonade Gin Fizz

    Cucumber Lemonade Gin Fizz

    We don’t know about you but some of these work from home, parent from home, dog sit from home, never leave your home days have us feeling drained. Instead of grabbing a glass of wine or a beer, we wanted to celebrate the sunshine with these Cucumber Lemonade Gin Fizz Cocktails. The cucumber and lemonade…

  • Semi-Homemade Southwest Caesar Salad

    Semi-Homemade Southwest Caesar Salad

    After two weeks of living together in quarantine, we have come up with a pretty good system for meal planning. While it might seems a little OCD to plan out lunches and dinners every day for four adults, it actually helps cut back on food waste and helps us buy the minimum amount of groceries…

  • Penne a la Vodka

    Penne a la Vodka

    Keeping things simple in quarantine does not mean that the food we make has to lack flavor. This penne a la vodka has just a few ingredients, most of them pantry ingredients, and is a much more exciting dinner than regular old spaghetti. Not to mention we could all use a little extra dash of…
