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 […]
New Years
Strawberries & Cream Challah Bake
Another Friday, another challah! This week, I’m making a fresh challah bake with all the sweet flavors of strawberries and cream. Fair warning, this cream is absolutely addicting and ultra sweet in the best possible way! I decided to make this version because the strawberries in town seem to be coming from somewhere that has […]
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 […]
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 […]
Lemon Salmon
Salmon is a weekly staple in our house and it generally has some kind of seasoning, herb topping and lemon on it. Why? Because it’s easy and delicious. And, while I typically bake it, this is an even easier way to make it in a pan. The butter keeps it super moist and the lemon […]
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 […]
Carrot & Coriander Soup
The first time I went to meet my now mother-in-law, she made Trevor and me carrot & coriander soup. It was Springtime at Easter and she grew coriander in her garden. I thought coriander was just the British word for what I would call cilantro. But, there’s actually more to it. So, what is coriander? […]
Roasted Garlic Parmesan Asparagus
Prime season to enjoy asparagus is Springtime, which is why it’s seen on so many Easter & Passover tables. It’s super easy to make and the flowering plant adds a much needed color to meat and carb heavy celebrations. I’ve made asparagus many, many, many different ways, but this is still one of my favorite […]
