Adventures in cooking and baking.
This sourdough quinoa bread, with its long fermentation time and added whole wheat flour and quinoa has a wonderfully distinct sourdough flavor.
This quinoa bread makes great deli-style sandwiches, burger melts, and toast for breakfast. It's also delicious freshly sliced and slathered in butter.
These gingerbread scones, with both ground ginger and candied ginger, are a wonderful way to spice up your morning.
These gingerbread scones are pretty much my new favorite breakfast treat. In fact, I had a hard time sharing them! They are deeply flavored with ginger and molasses, along with brown sugar.
These Korean style beef short ribs with bok choy are savory with a hint of sweet and are super tender and succulent.
Beef short ribs, on their own, are incredibly flavorful. Add an amazing sauce that evokes the flavors of Korean beef for an amazing dinner.
This Crème Caramel a l'Orange Fraîche is a fresh and citrus-y take on the classic vanilla Parisian brasserie and restaurant dessert.
This dessert has a "fancy" feel, but it is super easy to make and you can make it ahead of time. It's perfect for both an elegant or casual dinner party too.
This simple summer vegetable soup recipe is so flexible and versatile. Pick up your favorite summer vegetables at the farmers' market and use them to make this fresh and easy soup.
This summer soup is so flavorful and satisfying. It's wonderful for lunch or a light dinner. Serve it with a slice of cheesy garlic toast or a crusty dinner roll for a quick and satisfying meal.
Make this corn and cantaloupe salad with pickled red onions and roasted chile when fresh corn is at its sweetest.
Enjoy this summery salad for lunch or as a side for dinner. It's also great for bringing to a potluck, cookout, or a picnic. The ingredients hold up well, even when the salad is made a day ahead of time. The corn stays crunchy and the cantaloupe stays juicy.
Aren't these Peaches and Cream Mini Cheesecakes cute? I love making bite-sized and mini-sized desserts. They just taste better!
These peaches and cream mini cheesecakes are super creamy and subtly flavored with peach puree. I topped them with a dab of peach jam and a swirl of whipped cream.
