The official colors of Mardi Gras are purple (representing justice), green (representing faith), and gold (representing power). I created this Mardi Gras Maui Bowl, with those colors in mind, combined with my favorite island flavors. This bowl is so easy to make! The toppings take me back to a hotel balcony in Maui, watching the […]
Lemon, Ginger, and Pear – Oh hi!
Cheers to the New Year!! It’s still January, so I can still say that, right? New Year’s toasting may be over, but my Lemon Ginger Pear Splash can be enjoyed on any occasion…like a Tuesday evening.

Cranberry Chipotle Boneless Wings
When it comes to wing sauce, I like it to be a little bit sweet, and a little bit spicy – not unlike my own personality. This Cranberry Chipotle sauce, made using Cape Cod Select Premium Frozen Cranberries, can be whipped up in just a few minutes. It’s perfect for my air-fried boneless wings, but […]
Cranberry Orange Cooler
Cranberry and citrus is a match made in heaven! This Cranberry Orange Cooler is made from a simple syrup, using Cape Cod Select Premium Frozen Cranberries, triple sec, and orange juice. You can enjoy it on the rocks, but it feels extra special thrown in the blender! Cape Cod Select graciously sent me a sample […]
Cranberry Walnut Cheese Ball
I can admit it now, I was never a fan of cheese balls. Growing up in south, almost every function had one…sitting alone on a plate, covered in dried mystery meat. No thank you.

I love Sushi – and by sushi, I mean veggie sushi. If making your own sushi at home seems intimidating, skip the sashimi, and give this veggie sushi a try! The combinations are endless, but I went with a mixture of roasted peppers, crisp purple cabbage, cucumber, and roasted sweet potato. Big thanks to Melissa’s Produce […]

Brussels Sprouts & Pancetta Mac and Cheese
Mac and cheese just might be the ultimate comfort food. This Mac and Cheese with Brussels Sprouts and Pancetta adds a grown-up touch to a childhood favorite. While many gourmet mac and cheese recipes use cheddar, I find that American cheese, like I blend with Monterey jack for this Mac and Cheese with Brussels Sprouts and […]
Ponzu-Glazed Edamame
These Ponzu-Glazed Edamame are packed with flavor, and just the right amount of heat. They make a perfect side dish for an Asian-inspired dinner, or even just as a snack!
