FavoritePinShare An amazing pull apart bread stuffed with three cheeses and a buttery garlic! You won’t be able to get enough! Carbs are my weakness. Whenever I am really trying to watch what I eat, carbs are what tempts me. It isn’t chocolate or sweets it is all carbs. When I am preggo I crave carbs. Which probably isn’t the best thing for gaining weight. When I was pregnant with my first child I would crave a fresh baked french bread....
Now that you’ve (hopefully) stopped jumping up and down, let’s talk about this very serious – and yet so simple – dessert. What is a brigadeiro? In Brazil every birthday party has some brigadeiros by the cake. And by the time everybody gathers around the cake to sing “Parabéns a você!” (Happy Birthday to you!) you can always see some empty paper cups because there’s always a few naughty ones that eat the brigadeiros before Happy Birthday time....

In the spirit of full disclosure, I didn’t set out to make this a vegan apple crisp or a gluten free apple crisp, or really anything other than ridiculously yummy....

Do you double the carbs with fries, or try to make it healthy with vegetables? And what about classic spaghetti and salad? The truth is that chicken parmesan is a delectable dish that never disappoints. The combination of crisp chicken, nutty parmesan, ooey-gooey mozzarella, and sweet marinara is delightful!

Made with a layer of well-seasoned ground meat at the bottom and creamy mashed potatoes on top, shepherd’s pie is a classic comfort food beloved not just in the UK, but here in America as well. As tasty and filling as the dish is, it’s way too savory to be eaten on its own....
Hopefully, they’ll also mention something about my being a good person—while eating slices of pie. I have a fierce, somewhat inexplicable desire to be a great pie baker. The only rational interpretation I’ve found for this compulsion is that I consider pie to be the dessert translation of love. It’s messy, it’s intentional, and it doesn’t have to be perfect to be magnificent. In fact, I consider “pie” and “love” so synonymous, I once baked heart-shaped pies....
If you ask me to name my favorite anything—be it a favorite quick bread, muffin, healthy breakfast, or even day of the week—I’m not going to be able to answer without naming off at least three different options. I’ll probably text you later with my fourth and fifth. Making the category more specific won’t help either. I can’t even commit to a favorite individual zucchini bread recipe (Vegan Zucchini Bread?...
If you’re unfamiliar, triple sec is an orange-flavored liqueur from France. Meaning “triple dry,” it’s derived from the dried peels of both sweet and bitter oranges. It can be enjoyed on its own but is also an excellent mixer. In fact, it’s present in most of the classic cocktails we all know and love. This orange potion has been adding a hint of citrus to cocktails since 1875. In this article, we’ll take a deep dive into these timeless tipples, from the margarita to the mimosa to my poison of choice, red wine sangria....

Whether you have a new convection oven or just realized that your traditional oven has a “convection” function, these recipes are a definite must-try. I’ve been using my oven for years, and it wasn’t until a few months ago that I realized that it had a convection feature. It’s embarrassing, but, honestly, how was I supposed to know?
