Christine's cooking puts practicality first. She encourages us to start with a sauce when dreaming up our next meal because not only is a great sauce a springboard to creativity, it can make even the simplest of dishes stand out. Other strategies for streamlining everyday meals include pulling from the pantry when running to the store is beyond you, or celebrating the season's freshest produce by jazzing it up to create beautifully plattered dishes like Green Beans with Fried Lemon, Hot Honey, and Almonds. She brings a "breakfast for dinner" mindset to dishes like Skillet Eggs with Red Pepper Butter or Baked Eggs with Ham and Gruyère to keep weeknight dinners feeling achievable, invigorates leftovers by transforming dishes like Braised Beef with Vinegar and Peppers into a crowd-pleasing pan of crunchy, cheesy, and slightly spicy Braised Beef Nachos.
