It dawned on me the other week that I haven’t shared a fun recipe in quite a while. “Fun” being things like bite size French Toast Bites (have you tried them?? They’re fabulous – and fast!), Mini Potato Gratin Stacks, Mini Pizzas made in Garlic Bread Cups. That sort of thing. Tasty, fun food. And these Cheeseburger Party Meatballs are the first thing that popped into my mind when I found a packet of beef mince in the fridge....

One of the fun parts of being an adult is that no one can stop you from making potentially imprudent, positively satisfying eating decisions. Craving Cocoa Puffs (or Chocolate Muffins) for all three meals today? Go for it! Mom isn’t here to judge. One of the least fun parts of being an adult is realizing this choice isn’t healthy or sustainable. This chunky cluster filled chocolate granola, however, is the best of both worlds....

Coconut Rice Truly fluffy coconut rice eluded me for years. I felt like I tried every variation possible, but when I lifted the lid, I’d stare at dismay at into a pot of mushy rice, thick with coconut milk scum. Usually with unevenly cooked rice grains – some hard, some overly soft – and almost always with a scorched base. The making of my cookbook gave me the excuse I needed to commit to cracking coconut rice, once and for all....

FavoritePinShare Fall apart juicy, tender roast with hardly any hands-on prep time is easy enough for everyday, delicious enough for company! Growing up, my mom always made the best roasts – EVER.

Creamy Avocado Dressing This is a dressing that uses avocado to make it creamy, rather than mayonnaise or loads of oil. It doesn’t taste very avocado-ey because avocados are dense so it needs to be thinned out to make it pourable as a dressing. Rather, think of the avocado as a better-for-you means to get a creamy dressing fix! Excellent use for avocados that are a bit overripe or with brown spotty bits that don’t look appealing enough to use in salads....

What do New Orleans, Chinese takeout, and bourbon all have in common? The answer is bourbon chicken. I’ve visited the Big Easy (New Orleans) three times. One dish I couldn’t get enough of (aside from beignets and Blackened Salmon) was the city’s famous bourbon chicken. Juicy chicken cooked in a sweet, sticky sauce, bourbon chicken gets its name after Bourbon Street in New Orleans, as well as its not-so-secret boozy ingredient (you’ll also find it in these Bourbon Balls)....
