Have you ever tried a tomato basil pizza? Tomato goes so well with herbs, and basil is such a commonly used herb for pizza. Cilantro, however, is not that common for a pizza topping, but it is one of my favorite herbs. When my garden started producing loads of tasty heirloom tomatoes this summer, I decided to give cilantro a try on pizza! This spicy cilantro jalapeno tomato pizza is out of this world!

Every morning I eat my breakfast cereal over a cooking magazine. My husband thinks I’m crazy to eat food and read about it at the same time, but it works for me. Heck, maybe I am crazy, only time will tell! I recently came across the idea to make zucchini into a pesto. I turned from the table, looked at my pile of garden zucchini on the counter, and immediately marked the page for later! My lemony zucchini arugula pesto is great as a dip or a spread!

Tempeh Gyro Tacos with Cucumber Salsa

Posted on August 10, 2017 | 12 comments

It’s official, I’m obsessed with all things gyro! I absolutely love the explosion of flavors, especially the tzatziki. I remember the first gyro I ever had at a sandwich shop in college. The sandwich maker asked if I wanted to add the tzatziki, and I didn’t know what it was at the time. He explained that it’s a creamy sauce that you will either love or hate. Well, I loved it, needless to say. My husband loves tacos, so these tempeh gyro tacos with cucumber salsa were a success! Continue reading →

Peach Basil Pizza with Balsamic Drizzle

This pizza is one of my favorites. Pizza is on regular rotation at my house, and it is always something special, like this peach basil pizza with balsamic drizzle. It is loaded with fresh summer flavors; we simply can’t get enough! I love to incorporate fresh seasonal ingredients on pizza. The peach is juicy and along with the balsamic drizzle, there is plenty of moisture so you don’t need any sauce. Top with melty cheese and some fresh herbs, you’ll be eating it all summer long!

Chipotle Cauliflower Hummus Tacos with Cumin Slaw

Posted on July 17, 2017 | 16 comments

One of the most fun things about recipe development is taking a recipe you love, and adapting it. Sometimes it’s about making it healthier, or adapting it to fit different diets. If you read here often, you know how much I love fish tacos. However, a lot of readers here are not looking for fish based recipes (I don’t post many). Therefore, I created chipotle cauliflower hummus tacos with cumin slaw to be vegan, and just as delicious! Continue reading →

My parents taught me how to make a grilled cheese sandwich at a very young age. They encouraged me to cook as a kid, and maybe that’s why I enjoy it so much today – it takes me back to my youth. Back then, my grilled cheese sandwiches were simply made with cheddar, but this Gouda grilled cheese with apricot ginger spread is a delicious adult take on the simple and convenient grilled cheese sandwich.
