Sunday Dinner

Happy Sunday! Every Sunday we share a recipe so you can cook along with us.

Meyer Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Blueberries

Hey friends,

Sunday mornings are my favorite excuse to slow things down and cook something that feels just a little more special than usual. These Meyer Lemon Ricotta Pancakes hit that sweet spot between cozy and elevated. They’re impossibly light, thanks to whipped egg whites, with a creamy richness from the ricotta and that bright, almost floral citrus kick from Meyer lemon.

They’re just as perfect for a relaxed Sunday as they are for a special occasion, when you want to make something that feels thoughtful but still doable. No stress, just really good pancakes.

Speaking of special occasions, this week we’re keeping the momentum going with a lineup that’s equal parts fun and delicious, like Orange Creamsicle Pavlovas with Florida Orange Juice, classic French Crêpes with Ham, Egg, and Cheese, Caramelized Banana Crêpes, and a springy Strawberry Rhubarb Galette. It’s all happening live with incredible chefs and real-time Q&A, so you can cook along or just get inspired for your next kitchen moment. Plus, don’t miss TWO giveaways this week, details below!

Florida Orange Juice brings that bright, sunshiny tang, cutting through the sweetness and keeping every bite light, creamy, and nostalgic.
