If you think salad = deprivation… you’re not doing it right (and those jammy eggs 😍😍😍)! #jammyeggs #steaksalad #saladsofinstagram #breathingandcooking

Italian plums are in season RIGHT NOW… and they’ll disappear as quickly as they arrived. I think that’s part of their magic ❤️ … if you find some, snap them up, head to your kitchen and make this pillowy-soft, tart-juicy Italian plum kuchen that my mother-in-law has been making for years. It’s quite possibly one of my very favorite seasonal indulgences 🍁🥰! When you make it, though, watch out for Kuchen Elves (because they’re sneaky) #italianplums #falldesserts #plumkuchen #breathingandcooking

Confirmation that everything is better when you put an egg on it… last nights ratatouille was SO good and made the most delicious lunch this afternoon with an oozy egg nestled on top ❤️ What do you think is even better when you put an egg on it? 🥚#ratatouille #leftoversforlunch #betterthenextday #eggs #putaneggonit #breathingandcooking

What a gift to live close enough to be able to visit @farmerleejones at @the_chefs_garden_ohio this weekend for an eye opening tour of their regenerative family farm and come home with a bounty of the most beautiful and delicious vegetables🌱🥕 ! These carrots are our favorites… I mean, how gorgeous are those colors? We brought everything over to my daughter’s house afterward and prepared the most deliciously fresh dinner 🤗 We roasted the carrots and drizzled with carrot top pesto. We wrapped the juiciest, sweetest cantaloupe with salty prosciutto. Gave the baby squash a little char on the grill. Spooned garlicky herb-yogurt sauce over crispy smashed potatoes (dug up hours before from Hannah’s garden) and served with a perfectly cooked fillet 😍You don’t have to live close to savor these gorgeous veggies because THEY DELIVER!!! Check out their website for seasonal boxes delivered to your door and while you’re there peruse their blog to see what really makes them different. They’re people with mission and passion… and those are my favorite kinds of people ❤️#youarewhatyoueat #freshvegetables #chefsgarden #breathingandcooking

A little dinner improv tonight 😍… dropped off some bakery to @theexchangemarket and picked up these GORGEOUS scallops at @kellermeats on my way out … made some coconut rice, sautéed some peppers and tomatoes to go with and sprinkled with chopped peanuts and fresh basil ❤️ #dinner #scallops #breathingandcooking

There’s something so satisfying about watching the transformation from basic ingredients to smooth dough to golden, salty, beautiful pretzel buns that Never. Gets. Old 😍 #pretzelbun #burgernight #breadporn #breadmaking #breathingandcooking

Sometimes The Classic version 🥓🥬🍅 is the best version. I considered making pane Bianco with caramelized onions … but barely-toasted country white just seemed like the right thing to do. I toyed with adding a layer of pesto and a few slices of cool, creamy avocado… but a thick schmear of Mayo was all that was needed. White bread+Mayo+butter lettuce+crispy, thick bacon+ fat slices of the first big, juicy summer tomatoes= my favorite drip-down-your-hand summertime BLT 😍… eating it outside on a perfect sunny afternoon with my person makes it that much better ❤️ @emercuri #lunchbreak #blt #tomatoes #tomatoes🍅 #breathingandcooking

Food should make you FEEL GOOD 🤗 … There were two little figs on the verge of being over-ripe whispering my name this afternoon. They made the most perfect addition to a lunchtime salad of arugula, blueberries, farmers cheese and sunflower seeds. Drizzled with a simple no-measure vinaigrette (lemon juice + a little honey + a pinch of salt….whisk in some olive oil) it was pretty and delicious and something I’ll definitely be making again soon 😊 #summerlunch #freshfigseason #farmerscheese #breathingandcooking

I’ve been watching these two 🍅🍅hang out on the vines in my little garden for a while now and was SO excited to pick them today 🤗… I’m thinking BLTs for lunch tomorrow ❤️…have you tasted your first warm from the sun tomato yet this summer? #summertomatoes #tomatoes #breathingandcooking

Can we all agree that fresh, colorful, deliciously seasonal produce is one of THE BEST parts of ☀️summer??? Last night’s dinner was all things seasonal and our eyes were as thrilled as our tastebuds 😍… peaches, beans, tomatoes, potatoes and honey from Hannah’s garden, herbs from mine, juicy blackberries from the farmers market and these delicious fresh figs from my @heinens haul the other day ❤️ Want to make the crostini yourself? Because you really need to add this to your weekend plans! It’s so simple (but do it soon while figs are in season!) ****Here’s how: **** ~toast thin slices of baguette drizzled w olive oil. ~while toasts are still warm spread with the thinnest layer of fig jam followed by a generous schmear of goat cheese. ~top with a thin slice of prosciutto and a couple thin slices of fresh fig ~drizzle w honey and enjoy 🤗 #freshfigs #figs #figcrostini #summerfood #breathingandcooking

I was like a giddy little girl at @heinens today when I found nice thick rockfish fillets…no table needed tonight, just music, a little vino, fresh summer ingredients and my person ❤️
