Book Confessions of an Ex-Ballerina

Sometimes, all we crave is a comforting, satisfying meal that warms us from the inside out – but that doesn’t mean we have to overload on heavy ingredients. This week’s menu brings the cozy comfort we love, while focusing on dishes that are lighter, naturally gluten-free, and loaded with vegetables. It’s a delicious way to nourish your body while still indulging in the familiar flavors that make comfort food so special. As I savor these meals, I’m also diving into The Thirteenth Child by Erin A. Craig, a book full of eerie twists and dark family secrets that’s perfect for these cozy, comforting nights.

Let's get to this week's menu. Enjoy!
