Persimmon French Toast

Persimmon French toast with soft persimmon filling and the falliest cardamom whipped cream. This recipe is amped up for autumn, but the basic is an all-season breakfast crush.

Another #weeknightwin thanks to @sunbasket. Jasmine rice, organic sirloin, Thai basil, and all the coconut-y, pepper-y things.

When the @ochrebakery sourdough looks this good, it's only toast for brunch. Salted strawberries, thyme, ricotta, avocado, meyer lemon, and bacon. If you aren't sure about mixing sweet and savory ingredients, remember that things that grow together (same season and region) almost ALWAYS taste good together. Think basil and watermelon, 🌱🍉 citrus and rosemary,🍋 and yes... strawberries and thyme 🍓😉 #itsspringbitches #thymeoneverything #berryseason #brunchsohard #avocadotoast • • #breakfast #homecook #sourdough #brunch #avotoast #bhgfoods #feedfeed #foodstagram #foodie #eats #eeeats

I didn't know ricotta cauliflower pine nut croissants were a thing and now I need them every day. The lemon curd blueberry has the much-needed spring feels too. We think we'll be over @ochre_bakery for lots more👍👍👍 #detroitfoodie #detroiteats #alltheglutenplease • • #foodstagram #instagood #foodie #foodblogger #detroit #bakery #

By pure chance, this was the first restaurant I went to after I broke my leg - three weeks after. I finally had an appetite back and was craving a cheeseburger. Three months later, the universe brought me back making this the first restaurant I WALKED into. Walked. All by myself without crutches.🙌 If someone says me and this cheeseburger aren't fated, I will politely have to ask them to kiss my grits. 😘 And a friendly reminder, they were named top 100 burgers in the country soo.... 🍔🍔🍔 #properlyforked #detroiteats #detroitfoodie #foodblogger #foodblog #detroitfood #burger #burgersandfries #detroitrestaurants #diner #comfortfood

It's only Tuesday and I'm already dreaming about the weekend and another nosh board like this with friends and drinks.👀 Garlicky feta dip and ramp olive oil were the stars for this springy dipping plate. Swipe to watch the build: •For the casual piled-on look, choose a smaller board than you think you might need. Build it where you will serve it to avoid a transport mis-hap! •Anchor your board with small bowls and plates • Give olives their own bowl on a board with multiple flavors and pile marcona almonds into the nooks and crannies • Add crackers of different colors and textures. Mix in some small pieces of that good bread you have leftover from breakfast • Try persian cucumbers and mini sweet peppers for dipping - Avoid buying precut (dry AF) veggiesand cut your own! • Dried apricots are a great sweet break on a savory board • Add oils and sauces last to avoid dropping bits into them as you build • Get creative on your garnishes and use what you have - just make sure it is edible and pretty! Thyme is our spring favorite 🌱 #cheeseboard #buildaboard #properlyforkedathome #springeats #partyfood #weekendplease #seasonaleats #seasonalfood

Strawberry thyme Belgian waffles with goat cheese and lemon curd whipped cream. Spring has f$#!ing sprung, people!🙌🍓🌱🌿🍋 • • I used fresh thyme and freeze-dried strawberries in the batter and Belgian rolled sugar makes them legit. Allll the fresh strawberries for the jammie topping. We can't get enough of this weather or these wafffles. #properlyforked #springeats #goatcheeseoneverything #strawberryseason • • #belgianwaffles #seasonaleats #seasonalfood #organiceats #waffles #breakfast #foodblogger #homecook #homecooking #feedfeed #bhgfood

Took some time off of work to learn how to walk again. Part of my therapy is wandering into bakeries I've never been to and perusing the goods. Multiple laps mean more walking practice 💪Apricot almond cheesecake, the best cappuccino in Grosse Pointe, and allll the cookies. ❤ #properlyforked #detroiteats #frenchmacarons #cappuccino

A plate of homemade pierogis will solve your case of the Mondays. My sister @sara_lowe121 made these then sent me a picture all the way from Oklahoma City just to make me jealous (that's what sisters are for.) 😎 #pierogisfordays #polishfood #sisters • • #pierogi #pierogies #homecook #feedfeed #bhgfood #homecooking

IT IS SNOWING IN DETROIT TODAY. WTFFF. I need spring, dammit! In the meantime, we're scarfing down this grapefruit and avo salad with pistachios and grapefruit vinaigrette 🥑🍊 recipe below for the rest of the eternal winter dwellers: • • • Peel one grapefruit with a knife by holding it flat on a cutting board. Cut the supremes (sections) out of the grapefruit over a bowl to catch the juice. After all sections are cut, squeeze the carcass to get the rest of the juice. Slice an avocado and arrange on a plate with the supremes. Mix 1/2 C extra virgin olive oil, 1/4 C grapefruit juice and 2 T whole grain mustard. Add a pinch of salt and drizzle over salad. Top with chopped roasted pistachios and enjoy your moment of summer. 👍 #properlyforked #properlyforkedathome • • #springplease #seasonaleats #cleaneats #cleaneating #palatecleanser #grapefruit #avocado #bhgfoods #homecook #veganrecipe #vegan #vegetarian

harissa-rubbed pork loin • turmeric roasted cauliflower • pomegranate seeds • pistachios • dried apricots • romesco crema • It isn't quite spring in Michigan yet. Plus, I missed out on winter cooking because of my broken leg, so we are doubling down on the spicy, roasty, and effing cozy things around here until further notice. ✌ A quick sear on the pork then it all goes into the oven at 425 F for 20 mins. I mixed @sunbasket romesco with sour cream to cool it all down. 🔥#properlyforkedathome #sheetpandinners #cleanaf #cleaneats #harissa #cauliflower #turmeric #homecook #homecooking

Finally back in the kitchen...slowly but surely. After a successful brunch at home, I got to braising these beauties from the meat counter @marrow_detroit ❤ Thyme and a little balsamic and a whole bottle of wine for these babes and it will be short rib for two tonight 🍷🍷 #mylegisproperlyforked #shortrib #consciouscarnivore #dinnerfortwo • • #eatlocal #bhgfoods #homecook #homecookin #braise #slowcookerrecipes

Biscuit perfection 🤩 While this cook is still on hiatus, Dale is casually crushing it in the kitchen for us. 🖤 Served perfectly with @gusandgrey jam 🍒🍒#notsponsporedjustlovetheirshit#dalebiscuits #properlyforked #properflyforkedathome #brunchsohard #breakfastgoals • • • #flourpower #bhgfood #breakfast #biscuits #instagood #foodphotography #foodstagram #homemade
