I’ve been in a breakfast rut recently because all I’ve been wanting are cakes for breakfast (which I obviously can’t eat everyday!). So, I wanted to change it up today. I decided to make a veggie packed frittata. I used zucchini and tomatoes from the garden, but you can easily use any veggies you have […]
Christmas
Pan-Fried Tilapia
Even though I cook everyday, I still find that I get in a rut with food sometimes and I need inspiration. This seems to be the week where that’s happening. So, I went to the supermarket yesterday and just walked around. I let the food inspire me. When I walked past the fish counter, the […]
Profiteroles
There’s a restaurant in town that Trevor and I absolutely love (and are frequent patrons of) – it’s called Court Street. It’s steps off the main drag in Hoboken and from the outside, you wouldn’t think it’s anything special. But if you come and visit and don’t eat at Court Street, you will be missing […]
Cheesy Bacon Croissant Casserole
Trevor works with a sweet girl named Laurie and one day, she asked Trevor for a suggestion for an Easter Brunch casserole or quiche. Well, I knew it had to be decadent and had just the recipe for her! It has cheese, bacon and croissants – it’s super decadent and absolutely perfect for any Sunday […]
Honey Glazed Carrots
What animals love carrots (it’s not a trick question!)? Bunnies, of course! So what better time to serve carrots than at Easter time when there are tons of bunnies around. I bet your little bunnies would love to eat these carrots. Mine sure did (Amelia at least since Matilda still can’t eat honey before age […]
Zucchini Ravioli
I have to admit, even though I live in an area where you can get Italian food on almost any corner of the city, I’m still not the biggest fan of it. I am, however, a fan of layered pastas, like lasagna or ravioli. So I thought, what’s a fun way of making lasagna for […]
Caprese Zoodles
When the weather warms up, I love making fresh everything! I love fresh tomatoes, fresh basil and fresh made mozzarella. Those three loves make the best caprese! And if you top it with olive oil or balsamic vinegar, well, that’s just the icing on the cake. Here, I’m lightening it up using zoodles instead of […]
Parmesan Peas
Peas in the Spring are sweet little balls of nature’s candy. They burst in your mouth with every bite and are only enhanced with a squeeze of lemon and some fresh parmesan mixed in. I love to eat these peas with my Lemony Salmon, but they would also taste great with chicken, pork chops or […]
How to Make a Fruit & Veggie Board
Back in November, I shared a great how-to on how to make a cheese board. It was so popular, that I decided to make another one, but with fruit and veggies this time. Since we eat with out eyes first, I wanted this board to scream Springtime, so I decided a rainbow of colors would […]
Black Tea Brined Chicken
The other day, I was watching The Kitchen on the Food Network and Katie Lee was brining a chicken in black tea. She was talking about how tea brining is a secret hack of food artists because it makes the chicken a perfect golden brown. Being that it is Purim today, I knew I wanted […]
