Eat Healthy – Live long, Live strong
If you had to choose one type of cuisine to eat for the rest of your life, what would it be? Yes, I know that situation would never present itself… but humor me. Without hesitation, my choice would be Mexican fare, with Italian ringing in at a close second. Both cuisines feature flavorful, hearty, comforting,…
1. I’m happy to announce that I once again have an iPhone =)… and I feel no shame in admitting that I’m totally hooked on it. 2. Last Tuesday I treated myself to a kiddie cup of pumpkin soft serve from Truly Yogurt out here in Wellesley (<– best yogurt place around these parts… in my opinion)….
I couldn’t help but sneak in one more pancakes-for-one recipe before Christmas… … and this one tastes just. like. gingerbread. You’ve got the warm gingerbread spices (cinnamon, ginger, cloves) and the absolutely essential molasses. Of all the seasonal flavors, gingerbread – to me – is the most Christmasy. My family has always made gingerbread cookies…
I daydream about food countless times a day; but there are special instances when an idea gets stuck in my head and I cannot think about anything else until that idea has yielded a tangible result I can sink my teeth into. Such was the case with this breakfast Panini. The thought of combining a…
Clearly I didn’t waste any time making the grilled bread & marinated tomatoes I mentioned in my vacation recap post. Also, I clearly forgot the fresh parsley this time around… I miss that pop of green color, but the crisp ciabatta + juicy tomatoes still tasted fantastic!

These crispy bars are a conglomeration of two favorite childhood treats, both of which I rarely ate – but enjoyed immensely – as a kid. S’mores were reserved for huddling around a beach bonfire at dusk during family summer vacations, melted chocolate and sticky marshmallows sandwiched messily between crunchy graham crackers. Half the fun of…
If you read my post for Winter Squash Wheat Berry Risotto, you are well aware of my thoughts on risotto. Easy and quick to prepare — despite its reputation for being labor-intensive — this creamy and comforting rice dish is always sure to satisfy me. With an endless array of possible ingredient additions, I could be…
This is no ordinary chimichanga. I’ve recently discovered that you can achieve a delightfully crisp tortilla – arguably the best part of a chimichanga – without the need for a deep-fryer. I guarantee that the kitchen tool necessary to make these beauties is sitting somewhere in your cabinet as you read this post: a skillet. Make…
I have another pomegranate recipe for you! Sure, it’s more of an autumn-appropriate dish, but Boston is currently enveloped in a cold front that has me reaching for a scarf to wrap around my neck in the mornings and a blanket to cuddle up under in the evenings. Roasted root vegetables are a delightful blend…
Are you getting sick of frozen yogurt recipes? Good. Me neither. In fact, I can’t seem to curb a near constant craving for the tangy, slightly sweet, and perfectly creamy frozen deliciousness. Without my trusty ice cream machine I’d be shelling out quite a bit of dough at the BerryLine location that is within walking distance of our apartment….
