Enjoy this decadent side dish of Brussels sprouts warm (mixed with blue cheese, walnut and dried cranberries), or chop up the leftovers and serve them over greens for a cold {sweet & savory} salad. And yes, Brussels sprouts can be decadent.
This sponge cake covered in a mixture of tres leches {three milks} is intoxicatingly sweet and addictively creamy. Happy Cinco de Mayo!
Churros con chocolate in cookie form are a fun addition to a party spread. Plus, Cinco de Mayo is tomorrow and if you can’t find real churros, these buttery, cinnamon-sugar cookies with or without chocolate are a festive way to celebrate.
These raspberry lemonade tartlets are perfect for Mother’s Day or any other spring brunch. The beautiful pink color is reminiscent of flowers and the shade of pink can be adjusted by changing the ratio of raspberry juice and lemon juice.
This version of my chia seed pancakes is a healthy spin on carrot cake, a classic spring dessert, and is a wholesome way to start your day any time of year.
This is such a simple, satisfying, comforting and healthy soup recipe that works well as a side or main dish. If the broth and pot-stickers are already prepared then the soup ultimately comes together quickly for busy weeknight dinners.
This year we took our Homemade Easter Peeps to a new level by making our own sugar sprinkles with natural dyes. I used the same homemade marshmallow recipe and dusted the bunny cut-outs in homemade {naturally-dyed} sugar sprinkles.
Layer naturally-dyed green velvet pancakes with homemade whipped cream and top with a shamrock pancake for a festive way to start St. Paddy’s Day.
Though a thin crust may seem like just a vehicle for the toppings, this flat bread {flavored with spinach, garlic and feta} is actually very tasty on its own or as a simple cheese and/or pesto breadstick. For my St. Patrick’s Day flat bread, I had fun using shamrock and other festive {green} toppings.
My obsession with vegetable soups continue. This broccoli soup has a creamy texture and a rich flavor but it might surprise you that no cream or even half and half is needed. Overall, it’s a hearty, healthy and easy weeknight choice.
