I made a homemade pizza last night with pepperoni and mushrooms. I found a recipe awhile back for a beer infused pizza crust that was really good so I made that again. It was yummy. I had fried rice for lunch and am likely going to have Progresso split pea soup and grilled cheese for dinner...

I'm going to be munching on some warm pita bread and hummus I made a few days ago. I used to buy hummus but I found a really good recipe online that really is the best I have ever had. Storebought seems so grainy and not as flavorful as this one: https://cookieandkate.com/best-hummus-recipe/...

Golden Masa Seafood Crepes with PEI Mussels and Lemon Butter Corn Crema Makes 6-8 crepes I've made crepes before, but never using masa harina. The lemon butter corn crema is something I created, and it turned out even better than I expected. This colorful seafood dish is rich, creamy, and full...

This is a simple dish that can be used in a number of ways. I chose to use mine in BLTs (bacon, lettuce, tomato sandwich) in lieu of using ripe tomato slices and they were great like this, but these can be enjoyed on their own as an appetizer with a yummy dipping sauce. Notes: This recipe...

I love fresh summer herbs, and tarragon is one of my favorites. I made some buns to use for sandwiches and burgers and I added fresh tarragon and thyme to the dough, which gave them a delicate and delightful layer of flavor. They were moist and fluffy inside but hefty enough to hold up the...
