Feel the holiday spirit!

It's time to cheers to 2012! I have so much to celebrate and be thankful for and I couldn't think of a better way to do that than cooking a delicious holiday feast with friends old and new. These cooking socials have been so and it's always beautiful to watch and be a part of the connections that happen. Way past time for another so... check out what's in store this Saturday!

THE MENU

• Appetizer -

Tomato, basil, and arugula crostini with toasted pine nuts

This is a perfect start to a festive meal. Cherry tomatoes, fresh basil, and spicy arugula top a garlic baguette.

• Soup -

Garlicky Cauliflower Butterbean Soup

A page right out of the book I'm working on called SavOur Soup! This soup is an explosion of flavor and has a deliciously silky texture.

• Main Affair -

Wild Mushroom Risotto

I just love risotto. It's a super comfy dish that has an elegance at the same time. The roasted wild mushrooms take this one over the top!

• Dessert -

Milk and Cookies of Course!

Well it's the holidays right? You will learn my secret recipe behind my Bella Savour cookies! We will make a big batch of cinnamon chocolate chip cookies and enjoy them with some vegan egg nog :P
