I always try to make use of whatever I have at home. Some days I’m like “omg I have no food in the house, what am I going to make for dinner?” Then I kind of think about it, look around, and try to create a dish with what I have. That way I don’t […]
Deviled Eggs
Deviled eggs are a delicious and easy snack. The best part about them is, you can make a lot of deviled eggs. They will last at least a week when refrigerated. My family always made them on the weekends and holidays. All the eggs were gone in a few short days. My boyfriend can eat […]
Oven-Baked BBQ Chicken
Whoever created the barbecue flavor was a genius, because it is so delicious. One of my favorite dishes growing up was oven-baked barbecue chicken wings. Meat and poultry were a rarity in my home growing up, so when we had meat or poultry, it was always a treat. Once a week, on Saturday, the holy […]
Challah
Ever since I could remember, my mother made 5 pounds of challah every Friday and before every holiday. She still makes 5 pounds or more every single Friday. It’s been my favorite type of bread my entire life. All of my siblings and I grew up helping her make challah. It’s a tradition. Challah is […]
Sausage & Spaghetti Dish
If I had a choice of any dinner, I would choose spaghetti. I love spaghetti. It’s my favorite type of pasta. I usually buy both whole wheat and regular white spaghetti and mix the two. That way I feel like I’m eating healthy. I know that’s not how it works, but that’s how I feel. […]

Chocolate Cake
I love anything chocolate. If there was anything I couldn’t live without, chocolate would be on the top of my list. I love the sweetness, the nuttiness, and the richness of the chocolate. It’s just so damn delicious. Chocolate goes with anything. I love chocolate with wine, with beer, and especially with coffee. It’s very […]
Vegan Butternut Squash Soup
Butternut squash is an orange squash that grows on a vine. It’s a delicious squash, flavored of nuts, and some sweetness. I don’t use it much as it’s not my favorite. When I do use it, I use butternut squash to make soup. Soup is my favorite way of using squash. I’m not a vegan, […]
My Lazy Version of Avocado Toast
Did you know that the avocado is also called an alligator pear? Avocados are one of my favorite food items. Avocados are creamy and rich in flavor. They are the perfect thing to slather on bread. I try to only buy avocados when they are in season because of their high price. Despite the cost, avocados […]
