Rounding out the dessert in the Latin Dinner Party Series on YouTube is a spicy chocolate dessert. Chocolate with habanero? I promise, this recipe prescribes only a hint of the hot stuff so that it’s nice and warm, a little kiss of heat, but still completely enjoyable for most folks. The best part about this
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Hummus is a sweet version of hummus made with chickpeas and peanut butter. It’s naturally sweetened so that it’s decadent enough for your sweet tooth but a healthy, wholesome snack. Hummus for Dessert Okay, so there are no ‘cookies’ in this dessert version of hummus, but I swear you’ll take a
This recipe for a Poor Man’s Paella is the second recipe in my Latin Dinner Party Series, a fitting entree to compliment my Salmon Ceviche appetizer. What make’s it fit for a poor man? I substitute the more expensive seafood and saffron with less expensive alternatives including hearts of palm, artichoke hearts and turmeric. Poor
This week I had the honor of meeting David Rosengarten, host of Food Network’s Taste and ultimate food aficionado. He hosted a seminar about Cheese & Charcuterie and Oysters, all outstanding ready to eat appetizer options. In the seminar, he showed us all how to shuck an oyster. Of course, I wanted to dive both

This recipe has been tested and approved by real, live humans! I made this Strawberry Shortcake Cobbler four times in live demos at the Le Creuset store in Scottsdale, showing just how easy this beautiful dessert is to make. To make things more exciting, I set up cameras and recorded one of the demos. This
Back again with another back-to-school recipe. This time, taking the everyday turkey and cheese sandwich and throwing a kids’ sushi spin on it. I got inspired by the bento box craze and found a version at my local Target store with built in cooler packs. I think Blaise will dig this when he heads back
It’s time for back-to-school and the elementary set are looking for something new in their lunch boxes. The tried and true Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich has a little revamp here in this blog post. Inspired by the new trend in sandwich thins paired with a nostalgia for Lunchables, this is my healthier version of
I’ve previously done a Breakfast Bruschetta, perfect for cooking with kids, but was recently asked to make a fun variation: banana bruschetta. It’s the same concept of a sweet, kid-friendly bruschetta, but with bananas, walnuts and my new favorite snacking obsession: coconut chips.
