  • Creamy Pesto Pasta

    Creamy Pesto Pasta

    Try as we might, we have yet to find a store-bought pesto that tastes as good as a homemade batch. We love making homemade sauces and pesto is one that we make regularly in the summer. We love to drizzle it over sliced tomatoes and mozzarella for a caprese salad, throw it on a grilled…

  • Cauliflower Adobo Tacos

    Cauliflower Adobo Tacos

    Recently we were at a brewery in Columbus that had the best honey adobo chicken fingers. They were so tasty that we have talked about them at least a half a dozen times since we first ate them. When brainstorming what we wanted to make for Cinco de Mayo this year, we knew we wanted…

  • Spicy Chorizo Queso

    Spicy Chorizo Queso

    Last week Justin Timberlake said “it’s gonna be May” and just like that, here we are rolling into Cinco de Mayo. Last year’s cinco celebrations were a bit bleak thanks to Covid quarantine and a general dismal state of mind. We are feeling much more festive this year and ready for any type of party…

  • German-Style Potato Salad

    German-Style Potato Salad

    Whenever we think of potato salad we think of potatoes swimming in a bath of mayonnaise, and frankly it doesn’t get us very excited. We like to eat potato salad that leaves us truly pleased with the flavors and textures of the dish. Insert this German-style potato salad – a vibrant potato salad with a…

    Semi-Homemade Mushroom & Pancetta Ravioli

    One of our favorite food markets in Columbus, Ohio is the North Market which features a number of restaurants stalls and food providers. In the past, we have only been in Ohio for a short stay so we were only able to try the restaurants, but now that we are living here for baseball season,…

  • Chilean Sea Bass with Tomato Herb Butter

    Chilean Sea Bass with Tomato Herb Butter

    Thanks to a general boredom of eating the same thing over and over and wanting to provide fresh content for Tuck & Tate, we are constantly trying out new and different variations of recipes. As our husbands like to say, we rarely eat the same thing twice! As much as we love fish, we realized…

  • Antipasto Pasta Salad

    We recently visited family in New York and were over served with delicious Italian food all week long. Our favorite kind of vacation. Kidd’s side of the family is well known for cooking up many specialty Italian dishes and we spent the week being spoiled with meal after meal of our favorite dishes. With grilling…

  • Sweet Potato Shawarma Bowls

    Sweet Potato Shawarma Bowls

    Thanks to our love of cooking, one of the gifts we most often receive are oils and spices from our friends and family after they go on a vacation. Over the years we have accumulated paprika from Hungary, tzatziki blends from Greece, olive oil from Italy, and more red spices from the Middle East than…

  • Cinnamon Challah

    Cinnamon Challah

    We introduced Nana’s famous challah recipe a few months ago and have been making challah almost a few times a month since. Nana’s recipe is our go-to for a tried and true classic challah. As time has gone on, we have experimented with different ways to modify this recipe and introduce new flavor profiles to…

  • Japanese Spring Shrimp Salad

    Japanese Spring Shrimp Salad

    A few months ago we shared a recipe for our Japanese Winter Salad, which includes a miso dressing that we are pretty much addicted to; it makes an appearance in one of our two houses almost every week. Now that the weather is getting warmer and eating salads doesn’t feel like a chore, we wanted…
