Hey friends❣️

It's going to be a beautiful weekend, I'll be spending lots of time outside getting my herb garden going for the season, how about you?

​Mexican Cornbread Casserole​

We don't do a full-on fiesta for Cinco de Mayo, but it's a great excuse to try something new from a cuisine famous for its bold vibrant flavors. This casserole is more on the Tex-Mex spectrum, but super delicious and customizable. I made it multiple times this week and my taste testers were very appreciative :)

One of the things I highly recommend if you love Mexican food but don't know where to start ~ homemade enchilada sauce is a game changer, and so easy. I've got a red enchilada sauce and a green version, below, for you to try. Just roast your peppers and blend up these sauces for so many authentic Mexican recipes.

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about? My recipes are bold and vibrant, but totally approachable ~ and my philosophy? We should all have the tools to feed ourselves well, and the confidence to cut loose a little in the kitchen. Food should be fun!

Hey friends❣️ I'm all about rice bowls today. Rice, and rice substitutes like cauliflower rice and broccoli rice are perfect for lighter spring dinners. Teriyaki Chicken with Broccoli Rice The broccoli rice base for these teriyaki chicken bowls was a wonderful discovery. I’ve riced cauliflower many times for lower carb dishes like my Mediterranean Cauliflower Couscous Salad and my Cauliflower Rice Tabbouleh, but for this recipe I decided to give the technique a try with broccoli. It works...

Hey friends❣️ Today I'm sharing a new cookie with a really nice soft texture and a flavor that can only be described as the essence of spring! Brown Sugar Rhubarb Cookies With all of the dozens of rhubarb recipes that have come out of the Great Island kitchen over the years, there has only ever been one other rhubarb cookie (roasted rhubarb baci di dama) ~ until now! And it’s high time: these unique soft batch brown sugar cookies loaded with diced rhubarb are amazing. They’re easy to throw...

Hey friends❣️ We all have at least one kid in our life...our inner kid! Funfetti Cookie Bars I patterned these funfetti cookie bars after my Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars, one of my favorite desserts ever. I have to be careful around them because I can’t eat just one. And, as predicted, these cookie bars have the same effect on me 🙂 I LOVE BAR DESSERTS! They’re more satisfying than a cookie, but not as decadent as a piece of cake…they just hit the spot. Hummingbird Cake Bars Creamy Lemon...
