A bacon sarnie for breakfast is one of life’s true joys – especially if you got a little too merry at a party the night before. Keep a batch of this incredible clementine ketchup on hand in the fridge – it knocks anything red or brown out of the park. If you’ve ever had a marmalade and bacon sandwich, you’ll know just how well citrus works in the mix; the combination of fruity sharp-sweetness and salty bacon is divine.

Read MoreHere’s how we roast Brussels sprouts to be crispy on the outside and tender inside. Our easy two-part method guarantees the best roasted Brussels sprouts. The ham is optional and can be left out or substituted for turkey, bacon, turkey bacon, or tofu. If you use bacon, we suggest rendering some of the fat first instead of adding raw bacon to the tops of the sprouts. This way, you can use some of the rendered bacon fat instead of the olive oil called for in the recipe.

Read MoreFor the best, juicy, and tender lemon baked chicken breasts remember these three things: marinate first, bake loosely covered, and use a meat thermometer. Before baking in the oven, we marinate the chicken breasts in a magical mixture of fresh lemon, garlic, Dijon mustard, and parsley. If you’re short on time, marinate as close to an hour as you can. If you’re flexible, go for a whole two hours. And since we want to keep things safe, it’s best to marinate the chicken in the refrigerator (no matter how long you do it for).

Read MoreHomemade balsamic vinaigrette is a staple recipe in our house. We like vinegary dressings and use twice as much olive oil as vinegar. To make a less vinegary dressing, add more olive oil to taste. I like to add a little sweetener to the dressing. Maple syrup or honey is lovely, or add a little fruitiness with your favorite jam (strawberry jam is especially good). If you are using a thicker balsamic vinegar or one that is aged, it may already taste more sweet, so you may not need to add sweetener.
