Spinach, Tomato and Goat Cheese Quiche
Does anyone else feel like they have cooked 8,792,300 dinners since March??? I love to create recipes and cook, but after 9 straight months of preparing 3 meals a day, working from home, and remote schooling Im looking for easy meals that are still yummy and healthy. A quiche made with simple, fresh ingredients is […]
Brussel Sprouts with Pancetta
Yum I love Brussel Sprouts. Ok, I admit I didn’t always love them. I think I was well into my 30’s before I would even try them. Over the last few years, I have experimented with different ways to cook them and I have to say, they are now one of my favorite vegetables. AND […]
Authentic Italian Sunday Sauce
If you grew up in an Italian family like I did, chances are you had Sunday Dinner (at 1:00 PM) each week with your family. And, if you were lucky enough like I was, your extended family was also there. Each week from when I was a child until well into my 20’s, we were […]
Instant Pot Short Ribs
Fall cooking and Family Dinners…these are two of my favorite things. Short ribs are the ultimate comfort food, but they take a LONG time to cook. Cooking them in the traditional way can take up to 4 hours and I don’t often have that kind of time. Once again, the Instant Pot to the rescue! […]

Beyond the traditional salad, there are so many ways you can use them. This recipe for Baked Greek Shrimp uses fresh produce and a simple preparation. […]

The warm weather is finally here and for me that means eating outdoors as much as possible! Living in an apartment building in Brooklyn, NY we don’t have a backyard, but we do have an amazing rooftop with grills and tables to eat outside. If you have been following me for a while, you know […]
Lentil Fava Bean Salad
Yum The warmer weather is finally arriving and with the warm weather comes outdoor barbecues and dining. For me, outdoor dining means barbecue and lots of fresh, seasonal salads and sides that dont. require a lot of prep or cooking. This Lentil Fava Bean Salad can be made ahead (the longer it sits the more […]
How to Make Ramp and Basil Pesto
Pesto is one of my favorite sauces and one of my family’s favorites as well. I love how you throw a bunch of fresh ingredients into a food processor and minutes later you have a healthy and delicious no cook sauce. Making pesto is easy and delicious-and both of those things are on the top […]
Mother’s Day Brunch at Home
Mother’s Day 2020 is not going to be how any of us Mamas envisioned it. Instead of going out to a restaurant for a nice brunch or getting together with extended family and friends, we are dealing with this current reality of staying home and staying in place. But, Mother’s Day is still a day […]
