Cheese and apples are a perfect pair. There’s something about the sweet and tartness of an apple that makes me want a slice or two of cheese at the same time. I can remember back to my elementary school days, our babysitter would serve us an after school snack. The snacks varied from day to…
Cheese
Shakshouka
Is anyone else sick of seeing smoothie recipes everywhere? A smoothie for breakfast has never satisfied me. I would rather chew my food than suck it back with a straw. There. Someone had to say it. I’m most certainly not a smoothie girl. Milkshakes, yes. Smoothies, no. I would rather fill my belly with a…
Tomato Goat Cheese Tart
This tart has been eaten on the regular in our house ever since the tomatoes started turning red. I’ve legit bought 6 packages of puff pastry solely for the purpose of making this tart. A girls gotta have a package or two on standby just in case, right? The reason we’ve eaten it so often…
Lemon Mascarpone Tart
Help, Ive fallen and can’t get up. Not literally (although sometimes it does happens), but figuratively. I’ve fallen hard…..for this lemon tart. To be fair, it’s not just any ordinary lemon tart. It’s made with homemade lemon curd, and a healthy dose of creamy mascarpone cheese. I’ve said recently that I’m crushing hard on…
Greek Quinoa Stuffed Peppers
This recipe is a simple, meatless meal that is loaded with Greek flavors. ‘Round here, I’m usually solely responsible for thinking of supper ideas. So when my boyfriend suggested stuffed peppers (something we have never made before) I was shocked. For one thing, I have no idea how he even knows what a stuffed pepper…
Chicken and Feta Spring Rolls
Did you know you can easily make spring rolls at home? My version has a Greek twist and is served with Tzatziki sauce. For someone who loves spring rolls as much as I do, it’s surprising that I’ve never made them at home before. Those cute little parcels look like they could be a lot…
Bruschetta Pizza
Some may find it peculiar, that a person who isn’t the biggest fan of raw tomatoes, may actually like bruschetta. When I eat it, I usually dust off about half the tomatoes, and go for a piece that’s heavy on the feta and balsamic. I can support pretty much anything if it’s backed by…
Quinoa Salad
It’s about time I post a healthy recipe! Looking back on the last few months worth of posts, they’re all desserts. Time to switch things up! I’ve had a little bag of quinoa sitting in my pantry for a few months. I’ve had every intention to use it but I just keep forgetting about it….
Pumpkin Shaped Cheese Ball
Halloween is 10 days away, and I’m sure lots of you are planning parties for this weekend, or perhaps having potlucks at work the day of. So I figured I would get this fun idea up on the blog sooner than later. In my office, our team does a food day on the first Wednesday…
Broccoli and Cheddar Quiche with Mashed Potato Crust
Eggs usually make an appearance at breakfast in our house during the weekend. It’s pretty much the only time of week I have time to make them, so I like to do it up right! Regular ‘ole scrambled eggs will not suffice. This past weekend, quiche made a special appearance. It wasn’t your regular quiche…
