Updated March 26, 2019 In Utah, there is a popular bakery and cafe’ called Kneaders. I have eaten there before-they have a great veggie sandwich, but I have never had their desserts. I guess they are well known for their raspberry bread pudding, our friends were raving about it. Bread pudding loaded with raspberries and topped off with a vanilla cream sauce-it sounded heavenly! Luckily, I didn’t have to wait long to try it, we made it for Sunday night dessert....
Updated March 26, 2019 Salad is usually not the star of the Thanksgiving meal. Most people look forward to the turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, rolls, and dessert. We always serve a green salad anyways because eating a little salad makes us feel better about the rest of the meal, right?:) Well, this year make sure you save room for the greens because this Maple Roasted Butternut Squash & Apple Salad just might steal the show....
The first of 5 recipes that I created is this moreish risotto because guys, my risotto obsession has returned in full force. I haven’t cooked risotto in ages because as I’ve said before, my family came to the point where they begged me to stop. Apparently arborio rice cooked in stock until it turns into creamy, gooey goodness isn’t good enough for them… Crazy talk. But yet, I obliged and retired my risotto stirring spoon....
Updated March 26, 2019 We hope you all had a joyous Christmas weekend. We had a wonderful holiday with our new little pea and my family. We hosted Christmas dinner last night and it was one big party. We had five kids under the age of five at the table, there was never a dull moment:) My family will be in town all week. I am glad the fun doesn’t have to end just yet....
The original recipe is made by boiling the tapioca pearls in milk, with sugar and cardamom. However, my vegan variation with the Instant Pot is a refreshing look at this old-time recipe. I agree to be sent email. A little of memories from the past….When I was little I remember my mother use to make this kheer and I liked it chilled than when it was warm. The traditional way of serving this recipe is warm after a sumptuous meal, but the chilled version can be equally good when the cashews soak up all the flavor....

Published on November 21, 2022 Sautéed Shredded Brussels Sprouts with Parmesan Cheese and Hazelnuts- this easy vegetable side dish only takes 15 minutes to make and can be served along side any meal. This Sautéed Shredded Brussels Sprouts recipe is one of my favorites because it is SO easy. It only takes 15 minutes to make and the flavors are SO good.

Ingredients This creamy spinach dip is pretty much exactly like the filling of a Greek Spanakopita with the addition of cream cheese to make it the perfect dip. I used fresh baby spinach but frozen and thawed spinach will also work well. Just make sure to squeeze out the excess liquid as you don’t want the dip to be watery. Fresh dill, loads of garlic and a squeeze of lemon juice adds flavor while the feta cheese adds just the right amount of saltiness....
Updated March 26, 2019 I have a travel hangover. I enjoyed my trip to NYC and Florida, but I am exhausted times ten. I am trying to get back into the swing of things, but it has been hard. Thankfully, Josh is full of energy and has been making up for my slacking. He did all of my trip laundry, planted flowers, mowed the lawn, went grocery shopping, and made dinner....
Spring and early summer is garlic scape season in New York. I was so happy when I received a small batch of beautifully curled up garlic scapes in our CSA box this year.

Looking for something different when it comes to making chicken for dinner? Then you should definitely make three cup chicken.
