Stovetop Green Bean Casserole – A Holiday Classic

November 17, 2016 By Aly 7 Comments

This Stovetop Green Bean Casserole is so easy to make from scratch and you don’t need to share oven time with the turkey. No canned cream of mushroom soup needed!

This recipe originally appeared on Cooking In Stilettos in January of 2011. The recipe has been updated with new photos and any recipe changes that I have incorporated over the years. This post may contain affiliate links to products I adore and use in my kitchen. Thank you for supporting Cooking In Stilettos.

It wasn’t until Thanksgiving 2010 that I tried that classic holiday mainstay, Green Bean Casserole. It still baffles me that in over 30 years, I had never once tried it. During the holiday season, Food Network’s Chef Alex Guarnaschelli did a stovetop version and, after seeing this recipe put together, I decided to give it a shot and since then, I have not turned back from making this version for the holidays….

Shopping Made Easy With Flipp and The Best Slow Cooker Beef Stew With Biscuit Dumplings

November 3, 2015 By Aly 2 Comments

This post is sponsored by Flipp, the Digital Shopping App. My opinion and love for the app is all my own!

I had a bit of an emergency last week. My phone decided it was going to play hide and seek and I about lost my mind looking for it. Like many, not only does my phone play a vital role in the day to day communications, but it also is responsible for keeping me in the loop regarding my finances, my social media and, of course, my shopping. One other thing with my phone – I have a bit of an app. problem. I have A LOT of apps on my phone that not only handle all of the above, but also tend to enable me when it comes to my love of shopping. If I’m in line at a store, you might find me browsing Nordy’s shoe selection or, if I’m at the post office and the teller is debating on whether or not they are going to open the window to handle the line around the building, I could be going through the internet to find the latest sales flyers while I’m working on my grocery list.

Being a food blogger who also works a 9to9, I have to be really organized when it comes to my cooking. During the week, I tend to test recipes and on the weekend, I finalize recipes that will appear here and photograph them. So – with that schedule, I am pretty meticulous about my grocery shopping and am always looking for the best deals. However the method I have used for years – either flipping through circulars in the paper or logging into each store’s website to look at that week’s circular is a bit laborious. It takes time for me to compile everything and, right now, time is of the essence. Thankfully, I discovered a new shopping app for my phone that has made my shopping life easier – Flipp.

Toasting The End of Summer with Sauteed Summer Squash #YahooFood

September 10, 2014 By Aly 9 Comments

It’s hard to believe that summer has essentially come and gone but, thankfully, our local farm stands still have a plethora of summer veggies. I was drawn to local produce during a recent shopping trip. I wound up walking out of the store with a ton of summer squash and zucchini so I know there will be a ton of recipe playing going on this week. I tend to grill veggies in the summer but there are times I just want to switch it up.

Whenever I’m looking for a bit of culinary inspiration, I have a number of sites I trust. One of the sites I find myself perusing often is Yahoo! Food. Yahoo! Food features great cooking tips, delicious recipes, fabulous cocktails, videos and techniques that I wish was available when I started my culinary journey all those years ago. The photos are always gorgeous and the recipes and articles are curated by a top notch team who have written for Bon Appetit, Gourmet and Huffington Post – essentially, if you are looking for a fabulous idea for dinner, Yahoo! Food has you covered. Also – they work with such publications and sites like Food52, Epicurious and Martha Stewart Living.

Secret Recipe Club: Slow Cooked Pot Roast With Vegetables

January 7, 2013 By Aly 14 Comments

I can think of no better way than to kick off the first recipe post of 2013 with a culinary creation from the Secret Recipe Club.

This month’s top secret assignment was Cookin’ Mimi and, like many of my prior Secret Recipe Club assignments had me whining about “I can only pick ONE?” Mimi has some seriously delicious recipes like her Pumpkin Spice Sweet Rolls, a soul soothing Easy Beef Vegetable Soup, these intriguing Enchilada Stuffed Shells but it was her Slow Cooker Pot Roast with Vegetables that captured my attention. I had never made a pot roast before so I figured there was no better time like the present. Plus – with the chill in the air in Philly, I figured it was time to break out my favorite slow cooker and start off 2013 with a bit of comfort….
