Loaded Nachos for NY Times

Superbowl Sunday is beckoning for these loaded nachos (by Sam Sifton for the New York Times). And when they say loaded, they mean LOADED. A layer of chips is followed by a layer of ground beef, then jalapenos, lettuce, avocado and the cheeses. Repeat twice and bake just enough to melt the cheese. Finish it off with cherry tomatoes, radish slices, cilantro and dots of sour cream. These will make the perfect addition to your wings and beer, I promise.

Sausage Ragu for NY Times

A couple of months ago my photos of Julia Moskin's sausage ragu was on page 1 of the New York Times dining section. Being Italian myself, I have a strong affinity for meat sauce, especially this recipe. I love the texture of the crumbled sausage with the celery, carrots and onion. I used cavatappi to accompany the ragu because it's one of my favorites but you could also use a long flat fresh pasta. This is a perfect meal for this time of year, it's warm, comforting and fulfilling.

Eggplant Baked With Tomatoes and Ricotta Salata

I photographed Florence Fabricant's eggplant baked with tomatoes and ricotta salata recipe for the New York Times a couple months ago and I think it's really special! It's her unique take on eggplant parmigiana. After you bake the eggplant, you scoop out the flesh and chop it so it's very fine, but not a puree. Then you mix it with sauteed ham, garlic and tomatoes and place this mixture back in the eggplant skins. Top it with the cheese and bake for 20 more minutes. How cool is that!?

Dyfari Interiors at the 2015 Hampton Designer Showhouse

image272.jpg

Today I am reminiscing of warmer summer days with Diane Guariglia's (Dyfari Interiors) beautiful room from the 2015 Hampton Designer Showhouse that I photographed back in July. I love Diane's work and I always have so much fun photographing it.

Her master bedroom at the showhouse was the eptiome of summer vibes and when I walked in I immediately felt relaxed and happy. The palette is neutral but warm and tied together with gold accents and naturally textured pieces. I wanted to stay and climb into that gorgeous bed!
