Nut-free Flourless Fallen Chocolate Cake (Passover-friendly)
I was making my usual to-do list of Passover desserts the other day, and I realized that all of them contained nuts, mostly in the form of almond meal. I am not hosting Passover dinner this year, but I am making all the desserts for both seders at my mother-in-law's house and we do have someone ...
Grain-free Cinnamon Apple Cake Recipe
One of the first desserts I made my boyfriend-now-husband was the Chunky Apple Walnut Cake from The Silver Palate Cookbook. Do you remember that book? Even though it's from 1982, I still have it on the shelf in my kitchen with more current titles. It was probably the second cookbook I ever bought ...
baked zucchini fries recipe
My kids can't get enough of these zucchini fries and I can't get enough of hearing them beg me for vegetables! After I returned home from New York last week, my son, the one and only Mr. Picky, said, "I don't know what you're making for dinner this week, but please include zucchini fries!" Pinch ...
zucchini bread pancakes recipe
A few years ago, someone suggested I teach a class with a breakfast menu. At first I didn't think it was such a good idea because breakfast seems kind of easy, at least too easy to be taught in a cooking class. In our house the rotations is oatmeal or muesli, scrambled eggs, smoothies, yogurt and ...
A Valentine’s Day Snack Board
I am so fond of food boards in any shape or form. Cheese, charcuterie, crudités and dessert boards have been having a moment. They're a very modern and beautiful way to present small bites. But I have also been doing less traditional, but equally as fun, lunch and snack boards. Put a bunch of ...

Matzoh Lasagne Recipe
If you don't celebrate Passover and have no need to make lasagne out of matzoh, I am so sorry this post likely doesn't appeal to you. Although I must mention that our not-Jewish friend Matt had my matzoh lasagne last year and keeps talking about it nonstop. In fact, just the other day he invited ...
Fourth of July Menu Ideas
I had a different post planned for this weekend, but I after I received A LOT of emails from my students asking for 4th of July menu suggestions, I knew I had to address this! There's really no simple answer to that question because everyone has different tastes and expectations. Some people like ...
five friday favorites 2.6.15 — valentine’s edition!
I'm not the kind of girl that needs fancy gifts or over-the-top flowers on Valentine's Day. And I would much rather stay home with my husband and kids than be at a crowded restaurant. None of that says "L-O-V-E" to me, and instead just feels a little contrived. What I do cherish is a small ...
Dinner Planner – Week of December 23rd, 2019
And we're off! First stop, Long Island to celebrate Christmas with my family. I'll be on stories the whole week, cooking up a storm! Then, Utah to meet up with my husband's family to ski for a few days. I was talking to a few friends this week about eating and drinking during the holidays and how ...
