Fudgy Spiced Brownies

*I teamed up with doTERRA to bring you this post. Valentine’s Day is almost here and I’ve got a brownie recipe that is perfect to help you celebrate. “A brownie recipe?” you might say. “Aren’t there already 30 bazillion brownie recipes out there? Why do we need another one?” Well, you don’t have this one! Several things make […]

Ozenzai (おぜんざい), a sweet red bean soup, is a very popular, traditional Japanese dessert. It is made with adzuki beans and can be served over toasted mochi, shiratama dango, or a cooked grain, like millet. It’s one of my (many) favorite desserts and it really made my week this week.

One of the reasons that I love fall is that it is apple season and I love apples. I’ve been wishing for a bite of a Japanese apple (a little over a year ago I was in Japan experiencing the famous apples of the Aomori region), so decided that a good apple dessert would have to […]

I have a thing for raspberries paired with chocolate . . . it’s just a match made in a heaven. So when I received a Power AirFryer Oven to play with I decided to answer a craving for raspberry chocolate by using the oven’s dehydrating function to make some Dark Chocolate Raspberry Almond Butter Cups.

About 8 months ago I started craving an apple oat bar. This was weird because I don’t know if I had ever had anything like what I was actually craving. What I wanted was something that wasn’t like a granola bar…something a bit cake-ier, but not like cake. I wanted something that wasn’t overly sweet, […]

Sponsored by RW Garcia. Do you realize that we only have 15 days until Thanksgiving Day? And only 46 days to go until Christmas Eve? Aaack! Have you started thinking about what you’re going to serve or bring to share for those days? I’ve started, but need to get more serious about it because it’s […]

Graham Cracker Brownies. Those three words immediately make me think of my grandma. She has been making these gooey squares since my dad was a little boy. I once asked one of my uncles what his favorite thing was that his mom made. My grandma is a phenomenal cook, and so I expected . . […]

7 more days until Halloween! My kids are counting down the days. Our yearly family Halloween party is tomorrow, and they can hardly wait to don their new Halloween costumes for the first time this year. Their excitement is infectious, so our house has a bit of Halloween fever. To share the fun, I did […]

I keep thinking that spring has arrived here in Utah, and then the weather will turn and we’ll get a new layer of snow on the ground. Mother Nature is such a tease. I’ve been watching the new issues of magazines show up on the newsstands, taunting me with spring flowers, and spring inspired dishes, […]

When it comes to food, many of your favorites likely have their own holiday. You already know that I observe National Pie Day on January 23rd, but what else is out there? Ice Cream For Breakfast Day? Yep, it’s a holiday (and one that my mom’s side of the family observes religiously each year). Pancake […]
