Passover tablescape 2024
If you know you know. I absolutely love to create a beautiful tablescape for any occasion. My mom taught me that if it’s a holiday you pull out all the fine china and silverware. I mean, what else is it for? I will admit that my laziness lately has been an issue. The convenience of throwing some good quality plastic disposable plates onto the table is such a pleasure. And at the end of the meal…

Healthy Bran & Date Muffins
Healthy Date & Bran Muffins
I have a bran muffin story for you. I grew up in midtown Toronto and my mom was a frequent BUYER at the closest department store located at Bathurst and Eglinton. For those of you that are as old as I am, and grew up here, you might remember MORGANS. Did you know that Morgans eventually morphed into THE BAY in 1965? Fun fact. I was six years old. Anyhoo. The Morgans located at B & E had a…

Baked Spicy Sesame Chicken with Coconut Ginger Sticky Rice
Baked Spicy Sesame Chicken with Coconut Ginger Sticky Rice
I make a ton of chicken recipes and I have to say this one is on my top ten “most loved list”. Sweet, spicy and no deep frying required. If you love chicken bites coated with a glossy, sticky sauce this is the recipe for you. When I create a recipe, it usually starts with ingredients that I have in my pantry and fridge. I guess you could say that a forage of THAI & KOREAN based sauces make a…

The Best Chocolate Chip Mandelbread
The Best Chocolate Chip Mandelbread
When I first started writing this blog, I posted my all-time favourite biscotti recipe which could be a close cousin to mandelbread. What is mandelbread? Well, for starters, the name comes from the Yiddish word mandlbroyt, which means almond bread, as a common ingredient in the cookies is usually almonds. Any way you say it, these cookies are a very similar version of an Italian biscotti. The…

Dark Chocolate Cookies - TWO WAYS

One Pot Veggie & Pesto Mac & Cheese
One Pot Veggie & Pesto Mac & Cheese
I’m going to just say it. The two of us almost ate this entire one pot meal in one sitting. It was THAT good. I don’t know many people that don’t love a good Mac and Cheese recipe.

As always, I like to make recipes that are totally adaptable so feel free to use whatever fresh or frozen veggies you have kicking around. Same goes with…

Crispy Quinoa Crunch Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette
Crispy Quinoa Crunch Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette
I eat a salad every day for lunch. Then I eat salad for dinner as a side dish. I guess that means I’m no stranger to salads and to be honest, I have no problem making the same one every day but that sounds boring right? Good thing I have a long repertoire of favourite salad recipes and this one is on my top ten list. When I make a salad, the crunchier it is, the better it tastes. I loved the…

World's Best Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
Best Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
I have to say that I have been making this banana bread recipe for over 25 years and it is still my boys favourite. No wait. It’s their second favourite. Their number one pick for banana bread was a recipe that our babysitter used to make for them about 30 years ago! She never left me the recipe most likely because there wasn’t a recipe. She was like my mom. Always measured with her eyes. Suffice…
