Parmesan Crusted Carrots

Blossom Lady

Not all roasted carrots are created equal – these parmesan crusted carrots are in a league of their own! Every time I serve them with dinner, there are never any leftovers. These parmesan crusted carrots are a spin on my usual parmesan brussels recipe. I figured, if the crispy parmesan tasted so good on brussels sprouts, I could try the same technique on other vegetables! Carrots came to mind, as their natural sweetness makes for a great contrast with the salty sharpness of the parmesan. And after creatin...

Fettuccine Alfredo

Blossom Lady

Jan 18, 2025 02:19 PM

Everyone needs a good fettuccine alfredo recipe. This classic creamy pasta will forever be one of our family’s favorite comfort foods.

But I have to admit, the American in me will always have a soft spot for the nostalgic Olive Garden-style alfredo of my childhood. By contrast to the Roman version, Italian-American a...
