I have been making these for a long time and they have never let me down. They are bite-sized, refreshing and the perfect combination of sweet, creamy and tart.

I love the coconut macaroon tart shells so much that I decided to fill them with a simple combo of sliced strawberries and homemade whipped cream. They are light, refreshing, and offer an alternative to strawberry shortcake when strawberries are in season.

This coconut macaroon tart shell would be a great crust for many pies and tarts. It is quick and easy to mix it together and press it into the pans. Fill the tart shells with pudding, fruit or any other filling of your choice.

I made this African Peanut Stew to celebrate Africa Day yesterday. Variations of the stew can be found throughout West Africa. This version has edamame which offers a healthy dose of protein along with other nutrients but you can also add meat if you would like.

There are many different flavors in this sandwich that mask the fact that it’s made with healthy ingredients. It’s colorful, visually appealing and easy to make, too.

This strawberries & cream layer cake looks complicated but it is surprisingly simple to make. It is essentially a form of strawberry shortcake presented in layers.

This pound cake is moist and has a rich vanilla flavor. Serve it plain or topped with a powdered sugar glaze. It is also excellent with chocolate fondue or strawberry shortcake!

This is our take on a shrimp pizza that we had at one of our favorite pizzerias. The creaminess of the avocado is a perfect combo with the shrimp.

Kick off the summer season with homemade strawberry shortcake. I usually use homemade scones as the base but the two key ingredients, in my opinion, are locally-picked strawberries and homemade whipped cream.
