I have been making Soba Noodles with Peanut Sauce for years. It’s healthy, full of flavor and only requires a blender and a pot of boiling water. From a health standpoint, this recipe is vegan and if you sub tamari for soy sauce, it’s gluten free, too! Just make sure your soba is gluten free,
It sounds so daunting, or at least, it did to me before I made one. Homemade Apple Pie with homemade crust? That’s a lost art, reserved only for down-home, legit, grandma types. Sorry grandma, I’m hip to your jive and making a homemade apple pie is, well, easy as pie! Oh wait…now I know why
Seeing as I don’t drink anymore, I love concocting fun beverages that I can still enjoy at a party. Through my Latin dinner party series, I was inspired by the mojito, but of course nixed the rum and swapped in fresh pineapple for a fresh and easy mojito mocktail.

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

How crazy insane do these look? Yes, cookies & cream macaron shells with white chocolate drizzle filled with an extra chocolatey cookies & cream ice cream. It’s an Oreo lover’s dream! These were inspired by another YouTuber who I teamed up with to make these decadent dessert treats. Ashley Anixter is the queen of macarons.

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.
