  • Carrot Cake Baked Oatmeal

    Carrot Cake Baked Oatmeal

    Cooking 21 meals a week for four adults and baby has its challenges. To avoid “the rotation,” we are constantly trying to look online and bookmark recipes that seem new and exciting to make throughout the week. This happened a few weeks ago, when one of the bloggers we follow, Rachel Kuhn, posted about making…

  • Strawberry Buttermilk Cake with Brown Sugar Glaze

    Strawberry Buttermilk Cake with Brown Sugar Glaze

    We have been seeing versions of this cake online now for weeks, and finally Tuck’s mom caved and had to make it on a Saturday morning. We based our recipe off of King Arthur Flour’s recipe for Farmhouse Buttermilk Cake and tweaked it to add fresh strawberries and a little lemon zest to give it a brighter…

  • Soft Scrambled Breakfast Quesadillas with Avocado Crema

    Soft Scrambled Breakfast Quesadillas with Avocado Crema

    Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone! We know this year isn’t the margarita bar crawl that we thought it would be, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do a little to celebrate and have some fun in quarantine. We love a good breakfast situation and thought that breakfast quesadillas are a great, low key way to…

  • 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…

  • Banana Nut Overnight Oats

    Banana Nut Overnight Oats

    We are keeping it coming with the pantry recipes as we continue living that #quarantinelife. We love overnight oats– making them uses up some things in the cupboard and also mixes up our breakfast routine for a few days. The recipe takes all of five or six minutes to make and provides you with 4…

    If you are practicing social distancing these days, you might be itching for some entertainment beyond Netflix and reading the news on Twitter. This homemade granola recipe goes back to the first job that Tuck’s mom had out of culinary school. It is very healthy by granola standards and you most likely already have everything…

  • Farro and Zucchini Patties

    Farro and Zucchini Patties

    We have been making variations of these farro and zucchini patties for a few years now. We keep coming back to them time and time again because of how versatile they are. The base recipe for the cakes is hearty and lends itself to nearly any flavor profile. Our favorite way to eat them is…

  • Strawberry Coconut Overnight Oats

    Strawberry Coconut Overnight Oats

    One of our biggest challenges when getting out the door in the morning is making sure that we are put together and fed before starting the work day. The. Struggle. Is. Real. To combat the “Sunday scaries” and make the weekday mornings easier, we put together this quick and easy overnight oats recipe. After 10…

  • Vegetable Frittata

    Vegetable Frittata

    his recipe dates back to the first cooking job that Tuck’s mom had in culinary school. She was working for a chef that specialized in health foods and really developed her love of healthy cooking during that summer in Philly. One of the most fun parts of the job was Tuesday CSA deliveries. If you…

  • Eggnog French Toast

    Eggnog French Toast

    Nothing screams holidays quite like eggnog. Rich, creamy, and spiced with nutmeg – it is truly the ultimate holiday drink. Tuck’s dad and Tate’s mom are two huge fans of the ‘nog and so we have decided to incorporate it into the batter for french toast. The result? A truly delicious, sweet way to start…
