This week on Dinner Last Night, we’re chatting with the incredible Sarah Copeland—chef, food blogger, photographer, best-selling cookbook author, gardener, and all-around powerhouse. In this episode, we talk about our families' cultural traditions and roots, what it's like to live abroad with kids, and how to make a simple meal restaurant-worthy. From her Hudson Valley kitchen to her family’s Hungarian roots, Sarah shares her passion for food, family, and living a life full of flavor.

We cover:

• Sarah’s “low lift, high impact” cooking philosophy
• Peer influence as a way to get kids to try new foods
• The beauty of cucina povera and how Sarah weaves it into her kitchen
• Her family’s Hungarian roots and her semester abroad with her kids
• Favorite recipes from her books Instant Family Meals and Everyday is Saturday (both staples in our homes!)
• Emma's nut and seed bread recipe (a must-try!)

Plus, get a sneak peek into Sarah’s philosophy on parenting, cooking for kids, and building family connection around food.
