Project Food: April Challenge

I had to seriously rush to get this project done. I missed last months project (Splash!! ….so bummed about that…but WILL find time to catch up on that one!) and I didn’t want to miss out on another month just because life is CRAZY hectic right now!! So tonight, even though I had a late...

Stacey S - They ALL look delicious Amanda! See some wine in the second one, lol Pasta has such universal appeal for both kids and adults – and you really came away with an awesome dish!

Tammy Bilodeau - Scrumptious! I love pesto, and those big rigatoni noodles look so yummy, I could devour a bowlful right now. I love the different colour palettes you have used, the red, blue and then white. Each image looks so different, just from a simple color change. Love it!

Tiffany | Develop - Great job, Amanda. I love when a last-minute dinner idea becomes a family favorite! I love the shot with the glass of wine. That makes me want to dig in for sure.

Jen - Amanda, I’d take a bowl of that!! I love the lesson of not “over thinking” things…so true!! You are superwoman, I believe!!!!

Laurie - They ALL make me want to take a bite!! But.. I love the blues, greens and aqua color schemes.. so I choose the bottom one.

Girlfriend.. you are amazing and I totally appreciate your not over thinking this project. It does get stressful.. and you are proof.. that simple is sooo pleasurable!
Love you much friend and thankful for you! xoxo

blog - Its actually pomegranate grape juice but hey, it looks like wine!!! lol

Kat - My fave is #2 I love how the Red accents just bring the pasta to life. Great job. And even better that your kids loved it…and don’t talk about fresh corn on the cob. *drool*

Kim – Liv life - I love the simplicity!! And I love pesto. I could seriously eat it every day of the week and never tire of it, luckily the kids are of a similar mind and we have it often. I’m still seeking the perfect recipe to make myself, but have yet to find it.
As for the photos… I’m somewhat partial to the 2nd one, with the angle. I’m not good at taking photos like that and I always am drawn to those that have that eye. You do!

Carey - What a lesson in not overplanning!!! Not thinking ahead and getting these results? The beauty in the simplicity of this being about the food? You succeeded, lady! And double score that the kids enjoyed it too!!! wonderful pasta image, Amanda!!! So glad you squeezed it in for this month!!

Carey - and haaaa!!! about the pomegranate grape juice!!! that is stinking brilliant!!!

Project Food: February Challenge

February: Raw Vegetable | Cooked Vegetable I can’t say enough how YUMMY and SCRUMPTIOUS these veggies were! I can’t believe I haven’t tasted fennel or parsnips prior to this little event. Let me just say, I made myself sick stuffing my face with this. Good thing it is super healthy! Now, bear with me as...

Tammy Bilodeau - Love this Amanda. All the different colours and the little bowl of salt, the leafy fronds of the fennel bulb in the background. Great flavour combinations I bet and I love the adaptation on the soup, I bet it was delicious.

Jennifer - These turned out beautiful Amanda! Love that you opted to swap veggies you love into a recipe that called for something else What a great way to get your family to love more veg!
I know when I make veggies soups I add a TON of veg because it’s all getting pureed anyway
Nice job!

Kat - Great tips! Beautiful photography, love the colors and that you used some of the often ‘ignored’ veggies. I want to try that soup as well. Love it.

Laurie - SOOO BEautiful Amanda!!! I love your photography.. all of it! The colors are amazing.. you rocked the veggies. and the recipe sounds so yummy!

Allison Jacobs - Love these Amanda! Those veggies look so colorful & fresh! Your styling is great too…I feel like I am there cooking with you!

Stacey S - Love, love, LOVE all the images Amanda! And I can’t think of colors that go together so well as the palette you presented. Totally amazing. Love the steam coming off of PW’s Broccoli Cheese soup. One of these days I need to make that recipe – you made me want to dive right in!

Carey - Amanda, you rocked this OUT. Seriously. I want to eat this so bad I can barely stand it. And just brilliant to turn it into a pureed soup. I bet the parsnips gave it such a wonderful flavor!!! Seriously, everything about these images is outstanding. Gorgeous lighting, gorgeous styling, gorgeous food.

Kirsten - These are just jaw dropping photos! I love how crowded the shots are but in a good way…I have the hardest time with styling like that but those are the photos I’m always drawn too. Awesome job!

Kim – Liv Life - Amanda, beautiful work! Your lighting has me green with envy, and the colors are all so gorgeous and bright. Roasting veggies is a new thing for me and I simply can’t get enough of them! I’m eager to try your version here, and as my husband probably won’t touch that many veggies, more for me!
