Surprise, surprise, I had to do another carrot drink, because I have these glasses, and I bought a lot of carrot juice. As much as I like carrots, I’m not drinking carrot juice plain. So why not make it in to a smoothie? That’s got the same spices as carrot cake? Delicious way to start…
Chicken Gnocchi Soup
This recipe was a… complete freestyle. But it was good enough that I want it saved here on the blog! I went in with a concept, obviously. I’ve seen a few renditions of chicken gnocchi soup on the internet. But soup is one of those things where you can use whatever vegetables you have and…
Weeknight Moroccan Chicken with Orzo
Introducing… *drum roll*… For the first time ever… The Batter Thickens has a guest chef… the third sibling: Ethan! My brother didn’t write this post, but he made the food and has given me lots of quotes to include, so you can hear about it directly from the chef! It may not look like fine…
$15,000 Smashed Potatoes
Recently, as the temperatures here approached highs of 2 degrees Fahrenheit, our furnace stopped working! It was something we had all been “bracing” for, as it was older than me.

Junior vs. Adult Bake Off: Pizza Star Bread
My family was thrilled when this year’s Great New Year’s Baking Show brought back the greatest the GBBO tent has ever seen: Jürgen. We watched the two holiday episodes this holiday season, and appreciated getting to see Jürgen back in the tent, and even performing his trombone. And then when they were done I convinced…
Mushroom and Leek Galette
When I had pie crust leftover this summer, I made this Rustic Tomato Tarte. So naturally when I had pie crust leftover from my Thanksgiving Apple Pie, I wanted to make another savory dish, but this time with fall flavors. For Thanksgiving, I also made this Winter Vegetable Crumble from Joy the Baker that never…
Calabrian Vodka Sauce
I only just recently discovered Calabrian peppers, when I was recreating an egg salad recipe from a deli here in the Twin Cities. Now, I feel like I see them everywhere, including in the aisles of Target. When I saw this Creamy Calabrian Vodka Sauce at Target the other day, I figured I just had…
