My kitchen is always calling me. With a few shared recipes, I hope yours will too!
Serves 8-12 Tip: I thought about glazing this coffee cake (and you certainly could), but changed my mind when I sliced a small sample the night I baked it. This is one of the best coffee cakes I've eaten; it has such intense fruit flavor. Plums and figs are a delicious combination, yet super... Continue Reading →
Makes 12 muffins or 6 jumbo muffins (shown) Tip: As with most of my recipes, this one is all about your personal tastes. Use ingredients you have on hand, or shop for your favorite veggie combination. You may prefer to spice things up with a hot pepper or you may wish to add meat... Continue Reading →
1 serving Tip: I like hot cereal for breakfast, but it gets a little boring sometimes (my own fault, I'll admit). I'm going to work harder at making hot breakfast more interesting and nutritious. I think my body will thank me. 🙂 If you'd like to join me in one new creation, give this oat... Continue Reading →

Yield as shown in photo. You may choose a different mix of pans. (ex: all muffins or muffins plus a bundt pan, etc.) Tip: Julia Child had a kitchen rule...“No matter what happens in the kitchen, never apologize.” Julia's rules are definitely good enough for me! 😉 I made a batch of chunky applesauce last week...

Makes about 6-8 cups. Tip: Applesauce may seem like an old-fashioned dish when made from scratch. After all, what could be more convenient than those individual cups that pack so neatly in a lunch bag? But is it really delicious? Make one batch of this natural chunky applesauce using a small variety of apples... Continue Reading →
Makes 12 standard muffins Tip: Who doesn't like a muffin? You may be out there, but I don't know you personally. I could eat 3 at one sitting! These muffins are relatively healthful, but if calories are a concern, bake (and eat 😉 ) smaller portions by using a mini muffin pan. You should get... Continue Reading →
Serves 2 Tip: Do you love avocados? Have you tried them on toast? This popular dish frequently appears on cafe menus but is oh, so simple to make at home (we prefer a very basic version). If I can't find a perfectly ripe avocado at the market, I buy a very firm green one (or... Continue Reading →
Serves 2 Tip: I'm cheating a little here...I made this dish for dinner early last week with my leftover salsa verde. 🙂 Just think how prepared you can be for an easy meal when you make extras of certain recipes! Don't think of it as leftovers (if that's a bad thing in your world). Be... Continue Reading →
