Hey friends❣️

Here's to a delicious holiday weekend!

I'm all set up to dye eggs with my 2 year old granddaughter this morning, I've got the eggs, the dyes, the vinegar...and lots of towels. I can't wait 🥚

​Chopped Asparagus Salad​

There are so many traditional Easter foods, from glazed ham and leg of lamb to that epic carrot cake everybody looks forward to each year. But don't forget those all important salads, they add a light bright element to your Easter table and can fit into brunch or dinner menus.

My colorful crunchy asparagus salad is a family favorite, so we make it every year no matter what else is on the menu!

This cake is so deliciously moist and tangy encased in a crunchy exterior that looks like shiny crystals. This is definitely going on my list of favourite 'go to' cakes!

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?

Food should be fun!

MEYER LEMON HUMMUS

Hey friends❣️ My naturally vegan Meyer lemon hummus dip is so easy and so silky it makes store-bought feel kind of pointless. Meyer Lemon Hummus We’re hummus people…always have been. It’s been our go-to appetizer or snack for decades, and while taste in hummus can vary, I maintain that there are a few qualities every great hummus must have: It must be silky smooth (I can’t abide a grainy hummus) It must be rich in tahini for a luxe satisfying experience And it must not have a harsh acidic...

Hey friends❣️ If you’re looking for me this weekend I’ll be on the patio blending up frosty strawberry rhubarb margaritas ~ dangerously good with chips and salsa.
