I have to get this out of the way. School has been stressing me out and I have not been baking as often as I used to. When I get back in to the kitchen after a long absence, I can’t believe how much I miss it. Baking is an important part of my life, but…

These buttermilk rolls are not just for dinner. They make a delicious breakfast too. Spread a thick layer of cream cheese add some veggies, like a crisp red bell pepper and baby tomatoes, and it makes a simple and satisfying breakfast. You will find yourself enjoying every minute, every bite, of this breakfast because there is just…
Leek and Egg Salad
This Leek and Egg Salad recipe I am sharing with you comes from my mom. With a few small additions like mustard seeds and agave nectar I made this egg salad my own. I really enjoy the sharpness of the leeks with the combination of the creamy eggs. The best part has to be the dressing. Make sure to…
Garbanzo Bread
Last month, I decided that it’s time to learn how to make bread and the first bread that popped into my mind was a sandwich bread that I could take to school. School started last week and just in time I made this garbanzo bread. It’s just a little different from your regular sandwich bread because it has mashed garbanzo beans, or…
Indian Summer Stew
I am not an expert on Indian food, but I am slowly learning about the wonders of the not-so-subtle flavors of this cuisine. The best thing about Indian food has to be the spices and the surprising combinations of flavors. I learned how easy it is to prepare Indian food from the Food Network show Aarti Party….
Tropical Panna Cotta
Last week, I bought two ginormous mangos but I wasn’t sure what to do with them. I searched around for some inspiration and found this recipe for mango panna cotta. The mangos were so sweet that I didn’t even need to add sugar to the puree. I also added kiwi slices and toasted coconut because I though it…
Herb Focaccia Bread
Since August started I can’t stop thinking about bread. It’s a really crazy craving especially during the summer but it’s been quite nice, chilly even, around here so maybe that’s my excuse for making bread. Bread is a scary project to take on so I’m warming up. I started the month out with zucchini bread…
Healthy Zucchini Bread
You don’t have to compromise you health for this zucchini bread I promise. It’s filled with healthy ingredients yet it tastes sinfully delicious. This recipe was an experiment for me because believe it or not I could not find a zucchini bread recipe out there that I liked. I searched everywhere to find it and finally…
Chilled Sour Cherry Soup
I love soup anytime of the year but a lot of people have this misconception about soup being only fall or winter appropriate. Soup doesn’t need to be steaming hot, served on a cold afternoon, or simmered for hours. I love how this chilled sour cherry soup breaks all of these rules and will still leave you…
Lime Bars with Walnut Shortbread
I love lemon bars because their flavor is so assertive. And its one of those sweets which I know exactly how many slices I’ve had. With dessert it’s easy to blank out on how many helpings you’ve already ate. I see this all the time, a whole plate of cookies disappears, the amnesia sets in, and all that is left are…
