Ranch Butter Steak and Potatoes

You know, sometimes you need to lean into the classics. Steak, potatoes, and dress them up with delicious ranch butter. Yum!

Ingredients:

2 russet potatoes

1 bunch scallions

1 pound steaks

1/4 ounce ranch seasoning

1/4 ounce BBQ spice blend

4 tablespoons butter

Salt, pepper, olive oil

Method:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Slice your scallions. Scrub your potatoes and die into 1/2 inch cubes. Set out 4 tablespoons butter to come to room temperature.

On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Roast until tender and golden brown, tossing halfway through cooking time, about 30 minutes.

Pat steaks dry and season all over with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks; cook until medium rare and nicely seared on the outside. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.

In a small bowl, stir to combine ranch seasoning and 3 tablespoons of the softened butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Once potatoes finish roasting, remove from oven and carefully toss directly on baking sheet with BBQ spice blend, scallions, and remaining softened butter. Slice steak, then place ranch butter over the top and drool as it melts.

Serve the ranch bedecked steak with BBQ potatoes. Garnish with scallion dark greens. Enjoy!

Samosas with Yogurt Sauce

I love exploring many kinds of cuisine in my kitchen because I can control the spice level, and in the case of this recipe, the use of cilantro. Cilantro lovers out there- sub it info the parsley here. I have the gene that makes cilantro taste like soap, which limits my ability to enjoy some dishes in restaurants, but is easily rectified in my own kitchen. I hope you enjoy!

Leftover Cranberry Sauce Cookies

Like many of you, I made an entire Thanksgiving Day feast for only my husband and I. As such, I have an inordinate amount of leftovers. Expect my blog to largely star ways to dress up leftovers, because I have freezer meals of Thanksgiving day to last a lifetime. In this recipe, I was looking for a way to use up cranberry sauce and leftover walnuts from my apple crisp. Cranberry sauce drop cookies seemed the perfect thing to make; enjoy it with a cup of hot cocoa. I plan on gifting some to my parents; a way to break bread near the holiday without breaking protocols. Enjoy! Ingredients: 3 3/4 cup all purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg 2 sticks of butter, softened 1 1/2 cups sugar 3 eggs 1 cup cranberry sauce 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 cup chopped nuts Method: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Set aside a rimmed baking tray. Whisk together all of the dry ingredients in a medium bowl; set aside. With ...

Peek-a-boo Squares

My grandma, Mimi, taught me this recipe. I used to make this with her and my mother as a child. It is my very favorite dessert. It is incredibly easy to make, and even easier to eat. My favorite part of making this as a child was dusting every bar generously with snowy white powdered sugar. My favorite version of this dessert uses canned blueberry pie filling; I vastly prefer Libby brand over the store brand. You can make blueberry pie filling from scratch with sugar, cornstarch, bleberries, etc. but using the canned stuff is easy in a pinch and is much for nostalgic for me. Plus, I don’t notice a vast improvement over my homemade blueberry pie filling and the Libby brand; it just takes me longer to put this dessert together. I have been known to whip up a pan of these Friday night and have them disappear by Saturday afternoon. Be warned, these things are addictive! Ingredients: 3 cups of all-purpose flour 2 cups of granulated sugar 4 eggs 2 ...
