Crispy and buttery brown sugar cake on top, sweet sweet peaches on bottom. Entirely delicious.

A bright bowl of Vietnamese marinated ground beef, stir fried, and served with pickled vegetables.

A quick and easy molten lava chocolate cake is packed with real melted chocolate and turns out fudgy on the outside and silky on the inside. Best served with coffee or vanilla ice cream (or better yet, frozen cool whip)

My 5 most loved tools, for baking small batch desserts.

A dense single-serving white chocolate cake, marbled with your favorite jam. Okay, you might be able to share it with one other person, if you really love them.

This Lightened Potato Salad is bright and best served warm, while everything is still crispy. You can cook this on an open flame in a cast iron skillet, or bring the flavors indoors and cook stovetop during the fall.

This classic pea salad is every bit as flavorful, while still being “lite”. Greek Yogurt and Sour Cream come together make a “lighter”, but better-tasting dressing. This recipe uses bell peppers and two types of onions to add crunch, while the cheese adds body, creaminess, and soul.

This simple peanutty chicken is a fresh take on Western African Peanut Soup. Think a thicker sauce, tender fall apart chicken, and less ingredients (and time!) to throw it together.
