Rooted Notes

Some of my favorite conversations happen over ordinary dinners.

Not because the meal is fancy or perfectly prepared, but because everyone is finally sitting in the same place for a few quiet moments.

In a season where life moves quickly, gathering around the table reminds me that our homes aren't meant to be perfect—they're meant to be lived in with gratitude, laughter, and grace. Sometimes the simplest meal becomes the backdrop for the conversations our families remember most.

"Let all that you do be done in love."

Heather’s Kitchen Favorites

Everything I use to make this recipe—from the pantry staples I trust to the kitchen tools I reach for every week.

  • Air Fryer - Love using this brand because it avoids nonstick coatings that can release chemicals when overheated.

  • Slow Cooker - Reduces contact with coatings or glazes that may contain harmful substances; ceramic inserts are a common choice.

  • Baking Sheets - Stainless steel or uncoated aluminum baking sheets avoid nonstick chemical coatings.

  • Parchment Paper - Unbleached, PFAS-free parchment helps prevent food from sticking without introducing fluorinated chemicals.

  • Basting Brush - I use to evenly spread butter, oil, or egg wash over foods for better flavor and browning.

  • Cream Cheese - I love it because it doesn’t contain antibiotics, synthetic hormones, toxic pesticides, or GMOs.

  • Crescent Rolls - Organic, vegan, and non-GMO. They contain no bleached flour, artificial flavors, preservatives, or hydrogenated oils.

  • Unsalted Butter - You can’t beat 100% organic and grass-fed certified butter.

Pantry Staples

  • Sea Salt - The only salt I keep in my kitchen. This unrefined, mineral-rich French sea salt adds incredible flavor to everything from everyday meals to baked goods.

  • Black Pepper - This is the ground version, but the freshest flavor; you can buy whole Malabar peppercorns to use in your peppermill.

  • Pimentos - A simple pantry staple that adds subtle sweetness, beautiful color, and extra moisture to creamy dishes without overpowering the other flavors.

  • Croutons - A good crouton adds the perfect crunch and savory flavor to salads, soups, and casseroles. I always keep a bag in the pantry for an easy way to elevate everyday meals.

Heather's Tips

  • For a Gluten Free option, use Sweet Loren’s Puff PastryRotisserie chicken makes this recipe even quicker.

  • Don't overfill the crescent dough or it can open while baking.

  • Seal the edges gently before placing them on the baking sheet.

  • Brush the tops with melted butter before baking for an extra golden finish.

  • Leftovers reheat beautifully in the oven or air fryer even the microwave.
