FavoritePinShare Crispy-baked avocado fries are coated in seasoning and a crunchy garlic panko crust and then baked to crispy perfection! These are so delicious and easy to make that you will want to pair them with every meal! I loved these crispy baked avocado fries. In fact, cooking up veggies this way is a family favorite!

One of the unpleasant truths of adulthood is that, when you come down with a cold or the flu, the person who most often stays home to feed you your favorite soup (like this comforting Chicken Tortilla Soup), rub your back, and make sure you take your medicine on time is….you. Gone are the good ol’ days when you could curl up on the couch, watch Nickelodeon, and your mom would serve you endless bowls of Campbell’s tomato soup (or, if you were lucky, homemade Crockpot Tomato Soup)....

Ever since I was a little girl making hot chocolate with Swiss Miss hot cocoa packets after dinner (while splashing the requisite amount all over the counter—sorry, mom), hot chocolate has been one of my great comforts. In Paris, I tasted hot chocolate so thick and rich, it was akin to a melted hot chocolate bar. My copycat recipe French Hot Chocolate tastes just like it and is an absolute treat for special occasions....

A warming, hearty soup made in the slow cooker, this easy and healthy crockpot recipe (and this similarly satisfying Crock Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup) is allowing me not to be less busy but to be a different busy. I’ve realized that what I really want right now isn’t for my time to be less full. Instead, I want it to be full of the activities that I enjoy: trying bucket list recipes, spending time with loved ones (virtually, if needed), baking, reading, helping my community however I can, watching movies....

This week I thought it would be a good idea to focus solely on recipes you can serve on Super Bowl Sunday. I’m sure we are all planning Game Day menus and are in need of a little inspiration. I recently shared my Fried Cheese Curds and Kielbasa Sausage Bites, but a big pot of chili is always a great call when serving a hungry crowd! I first came across chocolate chili at a local farmer’s market here in NJ....

FavoritePinShare Creamy and delicious cheesecake bars made with a rich caramel sauce and glaze that are out of this world! Sure to be a hit with your family! Geez why am I so obsessed with cheesecake? I love it so much! It really is my favorite dessert and no secret if you have been following along. But first. Lets talk about dulce de leche. Heaven. That’s what it is. I just discovered that you can buy it next to the sweetened condensed milk....

As a family of mushroom lovers, air frying mushrooms is the easiest way to prepare our favorite side dish. If you love mushrooms, you will love these Air Fryer Stuffed Mushrooms too. Air Fryer Fried Mushrooms are also very versatile because they can be a side dish on their own, or a topping to a juicy Air Fryer Ribeye Steak. I love slicing the entire mushroom, and then mixing in to sauces, or in a pasta....

FavoritePinShare Shrimp Zucchini Boats with succulent pieces of shrimp and artichokes topped with parmesan cheese are a great low carb and tasty way to enjoy zucchini! Shrimp Zucchini Boats What a great way to use up all that zucchini from the vegetable garden!

Making fruit butter from scratch just tastes better and it’s free of artificial flavors and preservatives!...

One of my favorite things ever is showing you how to make desserts low carb. This low carb keto custard recipe was one of the easiest ones to make, because it’s not that different from regular custard. This dish has no flour to begin with, so we just swap in a low carb sweetener. And since keto egg custard is baked in individual ramekins, it has built-in portion control! Even though the total time for this low carb custard recipe is around 40 minutes, most of it is hands-off time in the oven....

FavoritePinShare This Middle Eastern chicken shawarma is packed full of flavorful chicken that is seasoned with a delightful array of spices.

After a busy day, nothing will make you feel more relaxed than a cold, frozen mudslide. It’s a dessert, a drink, and a cocktail all in one. This version is made extra creamy and chocolatey, too! It’s seriously delicious. Don’t be deceived by its sweet flavor, though! It might look and taste like a milkshake, but its alcohol content is so strong, one glass is enough to get you buzzed....

I love a quick snack and these frozen taquitos in the air fryer are one of my kid’s favorite snacks and an easy appetizer. It’s also a perfect pick for Taco Tuesday if you’re craving Mexican food. There are several options to choose from. You can choose from corn tortillas, flour tortillas, and fillings such as beef and cheese or chicken and cheese. Some of my favorite air fryer recipes are those you can grab from the freezer section of the grocery store and cook fast in the air fryer....

Grilled fruit is one of my absolute favorite things to eat. It makes the fruit ultra sweet and really heightens the flavors....

Can I tell you something funny about this bread? Its name in Portuguese is “Pão Segura Marido”, which means something like “Bread to keep your husband”. Apparently it is so delicious that no husband will be crazy enough to leave you! Well, I think I have other attributes that would help keeping my husband, but I make this bread every now and then just to make sure! ;-)
