Friday Four 041218: Butternut Squash and Quinoa Sliders
Here’s an easy-to-make, super to serve AND freeze for later, scrumptious slider!
Friday Four 041618: Spring is Here! Margarita Cupcakes
Its just something about spring that makes me happy and want to eat these light, easy and yummy cupcakes. Maybe its because they are so delicious, (and pretty), garnished with the best of the season’s strawberries!
Friday Four 033018: Sensational SPRING Carrot Salad
Happy Spring Holidays! In Morocco, a main dish is always served up with lots of small sides and salads. After enjoying this salad a number of times, I decided it was one of my favorites. With a little inquiry I discovered the secret of the zesty flavor – citrus!
Friday Four 032318: Happy Spring! Kale Caesar Salad
Its Salad season! Here’s a twist on the traditional Caesar that’s made with Kale – along with a yummy plant based dressing and fun sweet potato croutons! Bring on Spring!

What’s Your Comfort Food?
Some days, it just has to be curry. And not just any curry - Thai curry in all it's guises. Even in the warmest of summer, the round rich taste of coconut milk sustains me like nothing else can. Although I am hooked on my local "Thai Diner" restaurant, a friend and I...
