Appetizers & Party Bites
Asparagus & Feta Puff Pastry Tarts
I’m having major deja vu about saying this, but our Spring seems to be hiding. I’ve been hard on myself in the past about talking about the weather in too many posts, but this time I feel like it’s warranted because I woke up on April 1st/Easter Sunday/April Fool’s...
Baked Yam Fries with Sriracha Hummus (Vegan + GF)
But don’t distress too much, there’s french fries! Okay, technically these are baked and they aren’t really your typical fries, but still, same difference right? Before I get into that too much, let me fill you in on some life stuff that’s come up recently. Actually,...
Hummus & Veggies Mediterranean Mezze Board
Can we all agree on the fact that being sick just sucks on every level? Especially when you’re older because then you don’t even get to miss school as a bonus. You just get to lay around feeling guilty that you’re not doing all the things you need to. Then on top of...
Moroccan Ribboned Carrot Raddicchio Salad + Blood Orange Dressing
I know, I know, the title is fifty miles long. Sorry about that, but at least be glad that I didn’t make it as long as I could have. See, I always want to be super descriptive with you guys about the recipes I’m sharing and today’s recipe just happened to have...
Roasted New Potato & Arugula Salad
Happy Monday guys, I finally had a little time to do some recipe planning and cooking and I’ve got one of them to share today. Last week after I got home from Cali was such a whirlwind. I mean, I really enjoyed being busy and then skiing over the weekend because the...
Tuesday Toast: Coffee Break with Me
Good morning and happy Tuesday again. Today’s toast is like soooooo simple it hardly needs any explanation. I mean, I guess if you’ve never seen a pomegranate before (which I know a lot of you maybe haven’t) then maybe you’re a bit curious, but otherwise I’m pretty...
Vanilla Oat Flour Protein Crepes + Berries
Good morning, my lovelies! The season is starting to get to that tipping point of permanently crisp air, rainy days, and bare trees and I’m starting to get excited for all that the holiday season is going to involve this year. I’m also highly excited about next week....
The Best Fried Mozzarella Cheese Sticks
They’re melty, they’re crispy, they’re hot, and oh man are they CHEESY! Yes, I made some all-time classic snacks to share today, mozzarella sticks, baby! Mozzarella sticks are such a major crowd pleaser, it’s ridicuolous. Really, I can never believe how quickly they...
Classic Scotch Eggs (Baked or Fried)
So the last week of this month and then the following ones are going to have me pretty busy with cake-making. First I get to make a birthday cake for Xander and I’m so excited because I’ve never spent one of his birthdays with him before. He’ll also be inviting some...
Oven-Fried Chicken & Buttermilk Waffles
I’ve been staring out the window at the rain this whole week trying to stop a constant repetition of the old phrase “April showers bring May flowers” that’s going through my head. I was almost settled on dealing with it like an adult until I woke up, yet again, to a...
Andes Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies
Hey my friends! Anyone in the mood for some cookie inspo? You know, because I’m always happy to give it! So today’s recipe comes with a whole lot of irony for me because I made cookies using Andes mints. Now, in case you missed it, I lived in Chile for 4 years in the...
Mint Chocolate Chip Avocado Mousse Cups
Ok, so I’m officially sick of being sick this year. This past week I caught a case of the flu, on my birthday actually, so yeah that was wonderful. I’d planned to share this recipe a little sooner so that it would be live in time for you guys to make it for St...
White Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cheesecake
Have I been procrastinating the writing of this post to “accidentally” get lost in making travel plans for next week? Come on, of course not, because no one does that. 😉 So maybe I’m a little bit guilty, but you know, sometimes life happens. Also, I did notice the...
Monster Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches
Sometimes all you need to take something from good to great is just a simple idea. When I was growing up, back when my mom used to do most of the baking in the house. We had a pretty basic set of favorites when it came to cookies. Chocolate chip cookies were obviously...
