Inspired by a New Zealand coconut chocolate bar, this festive holiday bark combines creamy milk chocolate, toasted coconut, pistachios, flaky sea salt, and tart freeze-dried raspberries. It’s crunchy, sweet, salty, and bright all at once. An easy, make-ahead treat that’s perfect for gifting, entertaining, or sneaking straight from the fridge.
Ayesha Nurdjaja’s kofta meatballs blend beef and lamb with aromatic herbs, pan-fried to juicy perfection. The standout pistachio-arugula sauce adds bright, lemony contrast to the rich meat. These aren’t ordinary meatballs—they’re a true showstopper that makes meeting your weekly meatball quota deliciously easy.
Back in those pre-pandemic days when I wasn’t working from home full-time, one of my favorite lunch spots near our office was La Pecora Bianca and my favorite dish was their farro salad – no wonder with the similarities to my other favorite: Charlie Bird farro salad from Cook Like A Pro!
