In an effort to overhaul my current diet I have been doing some research on healthier options for breakfast and snacks throughout the day. I'm just not a "shake" person. Purely liquid diets do nothing for me personally and I'm not actually looking to diet... I'm just looking to eat in a he...

Happy Labor Day today and cheers to all those celebrating with cook-outs and BBQs. I'm a true sucker for a perfect deviled egg and was flattered by a friend who holds the bar high for these appetizers, so I thought I would share the recipe.

I'm pretty sure the way to my heart is through a perfect pot roast and a glass of red wine. My mom used to make the BEST pot roast. I have funny memories of us going to the Rain Forest Café and her ordering their "Paradise Pot Roast" (she was a sucker for this meal too). There...

My culinary idol is the famous French chef Jacques Pepin. This has to be the easiest and most delicious French toast ever. It was one of his ideas and I thought how brilliant. The ice cream already has the egg, cream, and sugar!! This recipe is super fast and it’s basically 3 i...

Lately I've been cooking pork. I made the pork dumplings for the wonton soup and I also recently made a pork fried rice, but there is something delicious about a bone-in pork chop as well. This is a 1-pot meal, except for any side dishes you wish to serve with it. For this meal, I simply steamed som...

It's still winter in the northeast USA. We are getting more snow than we have had in a few years. Snow is either a love or a hate thing. My friends that fly south or west for the winter hate the snow, but I on the other hand love it. I could honestly live in Ma...
