📬 Come to the table on Saturday

Every Saturday morning I send a printable meal plan and full grocery list, new recipes, and whatever’s happening at the Longstreth house. Drop your email below and I’ll save you a seat.

This Week’s Meal Plan is Ready

Five dinners,
one dessert,
a shoppable grocery list,
and everything you need to get through the week
without the 5pm panic.

Never Wonder “What’s for Dinner?” Again

Meal planning is the heart of what I do here — it’s how I keep this crowd of seven fed without the 5 p.m. scramble. The Nook is my home for all of it: the weekly plans, the simple system I actually use, and the tools that keep us organized.

New for the Holidays

The Holiday Table for 25

My whole holiday dinner for 25, planned to the minute. The turkey goes in the roaster at 7:00, the sides take turns in one oven on a schedule, and everybody sits down at 1:00 — the cook included. The menu, the countdown, the grocery lists, and every recipe, sized for 25.

Four Weeks of Family-Friendly Food cookbook by Stephanie Longstreth

My First Cookbook

Four Weeks of Family-Friendly Food

Four weeks of dinners, planned a week at a time — five dinners with the sides already picked, a dessert on Sunday, and a shopping list for every single week. Thirty-three of my best family-friendly recipes, chosen because they’re the ones my crowd actually eats.

The Nook:
My Meal Planning Home

Feeding this crowd every week taught me that a plan beats panic every time. The Nook is my home for meal planning — my weekly plans, the simple system I actually use, the tools that keep us organized, and everything you need to get dinner on the table without the 5 pm scramble.

The Terrace:
My Mediterranean Diet Home

My husband Jason has been eating Mediterranean for two years now — 80 pounds down, with bloodwork that turned his health around. The Terrace is my new home for Mediterranean cooking: the recipes that fit the diet, the pantry staples we keep stocked, and the story behind why we eat this way.

The Hearth:
My Sourdough Home

Many of you followed my initial Sourdough Journey — we laughed, we cried, and we (eventually) baked. The Hearth is my new home for all things Sourdough: the recipes I’ve tried, the weekly maintenance and baking videos, the supplies I use, and the resources to help you succeed.
