Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
This Classic Blueberry Muffins Recipe whips up in 30 minutes and yields soft, tender muffins that are studded with sweet blueberries and faintly scented with lemon for a crowd-pleasing breakfast or snack.
It’s funny the things we miss when we’re away from home.
When Mike and I were in Kuwait, I was surprised by which sights and smells triggered a memory.…
These Red White and Blue Popsicles are made with strawberries, blueberries, and coconut milk for the healthy version of Firecracker Popsicles or Bomb Pops! They’re patriotic, festive, and fun for Independence Day, Memorial Day, or all summer long. Mid-June when strawberries are in peak season here, I found the most perfect looking local strawberries. I bought a quart that day and went back the next day for a flat!...
3-Ingredient Frozen Yogurt Berry Bowls are packed with nutrition and healthy enough for breakfast, but decadent enough tasting for dessert. I always love the look of smoothie bowls. Pinterest and Instagram are full of a rainbow of stunning smoothie bowl inspiration, with just about every topping you can imagine. The point is to pack as much nutrition as beautifully as possible into each bowl....
This Blueberry Coffee Cake Recipe features bursts of sweet/tart blueberries in a rich, yet fluffy buttery vanilla cake. Earlier this summer my mom came down to Florida to visit. When mom comes into town, there are two things that I typically do: 1) Deep clean things that I typically overlook (like outside windows and inside closets). 2) Take stock of what’s in my fridge/freezer/pantry, and what homemade treats I want to have on hand....
I’m thrilled to share #mydailysiggis story along with a few tips and tricks for managing this busy time of year, and my Vanilla Yogurt with Grape and Blueberry Compote with Honey and Fresh Rosemary recipe makes an easy, elegant breakfast or dessert. On any given day when I check my email, I’m likely to get multiple messages saying something along the lines of “time flies!” or “I can’t believe that summer (or fall, or winter, or spring) is nearly over!” or “soon enough it’ll be Thanksgiving (or Christmas, or New Year’s, or Memorial Day)!” or “it’s been forever since we caught up!” I swear it feels like […]...
This Dark Chocolate Olive Oil Cake with Blueberries and Ginger is deeply chocolaty, rich, and moist, with complex fruity flavor notes thanks to the addition of olive oil, blueberries, and ginger. We all have a favorite oil, whether it is coconut oil, avocado oil, olive oil, or something else. Like any other staple, our favorite oil is always in our pantry, and it’s often what we reach for when we want to make everything from fried eggs to muffins to sautéed vegetables. For a lot of us, olive oil reigns supreme because if it’s flavor, cooking versatility, and health benefits....
Fun and festive Patriotic Cheesecake Parfaits made with fresh strawberries, blueberry sauce, and goat cheese-based cheesecake are perfect for the 4th of July or any summer party. One of my favorite 4th of Julys was when I was about 20. I went to a carnival with a group of girls and we packed a cooler with food and drinks to take with us to watch the fireworks at a local town park. It seemed like the epitome of summer fun....
We’re a week into the New Year, and I’m always curious as to whether people make New Year’s resolutions or not. I’ve noticed that people I talk to are split just about down the middle in their line of thinking; about half make resolutions at the start of a New Year and the other half says they try to make a resolution any time a change is needed....
After making Rye Bread I thought making about a nice homemade jam to go with it something sweet, spiced, and fall-like. My mind went to my Spiced Balsamic Concord Jam not only because its such a beauty, but also because this time of year Concords are always on my mind. Not even knowing if I could find Concords here in Kuwait, I decided on something a bit simpler to make, yet still completely flavorful: Spiced Blueberry Chutney. Instead of being just sweet like jam, it has a balanced flavor profile and nice melding of sweet, salty, sour, and spicy. Its just as perfect on a turkey […]...
If you follow me on Instagram, you might already know that yesterday I made natural food coloring. This is because I recently got the idea in my head that I absolutely had to make blue frosting. I’ll tell you all about why I needed it soon, but for now, here is a big hint…...
