Cranberry Pistachio Gruyère Croutons

Okay, y’all. To keep life simple at the holidays, I’m sharing a five-ingredient recipe your guests will beg you to make for each gathering for months to come: Cranberry Pistachio Gruyère Croutons. Doesn’t that sound fancy? Wait till I tell you how easy they are to make. These savory-sweet bites start with store-bought bread (hooray!). Go to the bakery section…

Calico Three Bean Salad

Three Bean Salad Summer is the perfect time for potlucks, casual summer suppers, and dishes bursting with garden flavors. It’s also a time to savor memories of summers past. My favorite memories are of long summer nights chasing fireflies and running laps around my grandparent’s fenceless yard. What’s your favorite food memory?

Simple Mushroom and Gruyere Tart

Two things I love — simple and yummy. This mushroom and gruyere tart recipe is easy-peasy to make, serves an army, and re-heats well for leftovers. Mostly importantly? My people love them. I feel like I’m always looking for a new, but doable recipe, to make when people come over. If I had a dime for every Google and Pinterest…

My friend Claire and her kiddos came to help polish off the last of…

Parmesan Roasted Green Beans

“Get down from that tree! We don’t have time for a trip to the ER today!” I holler my no-time-for-contingencies mantra a dozen times a week. Maybe more. Of course I don’t mind the Littles climbing the magnolia tree—it’s truly the best climbing tree around. It’s when they scurry past the two-story roof line on days with no margin for the…

Caramelized Winter Squash with Lemon-Rosemary Topping

Doesn’t this recipe sound ridiculously delicious? The first hint of fall has me reading cookbooks and scouring magazines for new concoctions to whip up in the kitchen. I found this gem in a favorite cookbook called How to Pick A Peach: The Search for Flavor from Farm to Table. I’ve never posted a recipe I haven’t tried before, but reading…

Meet Kristin

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

I'm on a mission to love my neighbors. I put an ordinary picnic table in my front yard, painted it turquoise and invited neighbors, friends, and even strangers to hang out and do life together at the Turquoise Table®.

I hope you'll join us!
