Easy Blueberry Cobbler Recipe

My 10-year-old niece likes to flip though issues of Bon Appétit. Recently, I told her to pick up a recipe and we would make it together. This is the recipe she chose. It was super simple and she had a lot of fun making it. So easy, even a kid can do it!

Tomato Crostini Recipe

I had a loaf of really good Italian bread from that needed to be used up ASAP. It was a tad hard so I decided to make crostini out of it. This recipe is so easy, yet good enough for company.

Tomato Tart Recipe

I really love savory French tarts but I've been trying to really watch my calories lately. So when my new Cooking Light showed up in the mail and I saw a recipe for under 300 calories, I decided to give it a whirl.

My Ikea Rast Hack

This summer has been busy. I haven't been doing a lot of cooking since I've been using my spare time to do some long-awaited projects around the house. Our guest room needed some love and attention since it was starting to look like an episode of Hoarders! I wanted a place that I can use as an office too. I didn't have a huge budget so I've been using existing stuff and repurposing it. Mr. T's old desk, an old office chair that was in the garage, etc.

Grilled Fish Taco Recipe

I adore fish tacos. I think most people do too, once they try them. They are the perfect summer meal. Light and refreshing, yet still satisfying. Sometimes I make my lazy version of fish tacos with frozen breaded fish.

Gluten Free Vegetable Fried Rice Recipe

Recently, Mr. T wasn't feeling well. When he finally felt like he could eat some real food, he requested veggie fried rice. I was dubious at first. Asian foods aren't in my comfort zone and I don't even own a wok anymore. But after watching a few You Tube videos I felt up the the task. Surprisingly, this dish is really easy to make. (Follow my lazy cook tips to make it even easier!)

Cake Vodka Recipe: German Chocolate Cake Martini

I'm not a huge chocolate martini fan but I couldn't resist whipping up one of my favorite cakes in cocktail form. German Chocolate Cake Martini. Yes, it true there is such a thing and it is divine.
Anytime you want to drink your dessert this is the one to turn to.
