    Ingredients

    • 1 pre-made pie crust

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil

    • 3 cups mixed mushrooms, sliced

    • 1 teaspoon salt

    • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

    • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

    • 1 clove garlic, minced

    • 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

    • 1 egg, beaten

    • 1 tablespoon milk

    Directions

    • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the mushrooms until golden brown, about 6-8 minutes.
    • Add the salt, black pepper, thyme, and garlic to the mushrooms and sauté for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
    • Roll out the pie crust on a floured surface to form a 12-inch circle, then transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
    • Spread the mushroom mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges.
    • Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating as necessary to create a rustic edge.
    • In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk, then brush over the exposed edges of the crust.
    • Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top of the mushrooms and bake for 30-35 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
    • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing and serving warm.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

    Five Ways to Use Cottage Cheese That Are Actually Worth the Hype

    Cottage cheese earns its viral moment nutritionally — a single cup delivers around 25 grams of protein, which rivals chicken breast ounce for ounce. It’s also high in casein protein, which digests slowly and keeps you full significantly longer than whey-based sources. Look for full-fat or 2% versions rather than fat-free — the fat helps with satiety and carries the flavor in a way the fat-free version simply doesn’t. If sodium is a concern, give it a quick rinse in a fine mesh strainer, which removes a meaningful amount without affecting texture.

    Why Heat Changes Everything: The Science of a Summer Kitchen

    High ambient temperatures in the kitchen can significantly affect the nutrient retention of cooking oils — oils that are heated past their smoke point undergo oxidation that produces harmful compounds including aldehydes and acrolein, which have been associated with inflammatory effects in research. Using oils with higher smoke points for high-heat August cooking — avocado oil, refined coconut oil, clarified butter — reduces the formation of these compounds compared to using delicate oils like extra virgin olive oil at temperatures that exceed their smoke point. Reserving extra virgin olive oil for finishing and dressing rather than high-heat cooking is both a culinary and a nutritional best practice, and particularly relevant in the August kitchen where oils reach higher temperatures more quickly.
