My Favorite Nantucket Bites

I’m lucky to spend part of my year in Nantucket. So many of us come here for peace and quiet, pristine beaches, a small New England community, and frankly some of the best food in the world....

After 6 months at home, literally all the time, I

After 6 months at home, literally all the time, I am now in the car a lot shuttling kids to school who used to take the 🚌, so let’s share podcast ideas, PLEASE! I’m currently enjoying @drmarkhyman Doctor’s Farmacy and also Freakonomics podcasts. What are you listening to for business or pleasure?

Our handsome, hilarious, joyful, busy 1-year-old, Levi. We call you Levi Pie, our cutie pie, and we celebrate you with PIE, coconut cream pie to be exact. We don’t know what we would do without your smile. 🥧 💕 #hbd

When I start struggling for meal ideas or feel in

When I start struggling for meal ideas or feel in a rut, I always, without fail, cook eggs. I am in a rut. Feeling nervous for our next transition, sad about the end of summer —whatever that was this year — and just like everyone, overwhelmed and exhausted thinking about what to cook next. This egg bake includes sweet sausage from @167raw_nantucket , red onion, shredded mozzarella and scallions. And, yes, that is a frozen pie crust 😬. And it was magical. My go-to egg bake ratio is usually 6 eggs plus a yolk and about half cup milk plus salt and pepper and fillings.

Corn corn corn corn corn corn 🌽 🌽 🌽 = sum

Corn corn corn corn corn corn 🌽 🌽 🌽 = summer summer summer summer! I built this layer dip around the corn even though you can barely see it 🤣. Layers as follows: refried beans, rice, corn, guacamole, tomatoes, yogurt, lettuce ! We ate this for lunch with @latejulyorganic chips. Do you love a snack lunch or dinner? We sure do. And for those wondering, the kids did not eat this as is. But ate the chips, rice and guac separately. Obviously.
