If you don’t like lemon, this recipe is not for you. Let’s just get that out of the way. This is a pretty lemony dish, but obviously you could cut back on the lemon if you really wanted to. I happen to love it, but everyone is different. I think […]

Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps w/Avocado
I decided to be low carb today, and I had a rotisserie chicken in the fridge that needed to be used, so this is what I came up with. Easy peasy! I love buffalo sauce and will eat it on pretty much anything, but buffalo chicken is probably my favorite […]
Easy Vodka Sauce
I’ll be honest, this is one of those things I wish I tried to make earlier. Because it was SO MUCH EASIER than I thought! Ugh, regrets. All those days when I ordered in penne alla vodka when I could have just made it myself. Just kidding, I don’t really […]
Real Fluffy Pancakes
The title of this recipe is important. I think it’s necessary to call out the fact that these are REAL pancakes. Everyone these days makes keto pancakes (I’ve done it too, I get it), low sugar pancakes, almond flour pancakes, coconut sugar pancakes, zucchini pancakes, you get the idea. Oh, […]
Easy, Moist, Chocolate Chip Banana Bread in a Skillet
You might be asking why I decided to make this in a cast iron skillet, and well, it wasn’t really by choice. I wanted to jump on the internet band wagon and bake banana bread, only to realize I am without a loaf pan. So I figured if you can […]
My Safta’s “Cheeseballs” (Hungarian Cottage Cheese Dumplings)
I’m SO HAPPY about this. I’ve been trying to get this recipe right for years, and I think I FINALLY got it. REJOICE! This one comes from my Safta, my Jewish grandmother by way of Romania, with some hints of Hungary and Israel sprinkled in. She called these little dumplings […]
Kale Salad with Avo, Mustard Vinaigrette and Grilled Cheese Croutons
Yes, you heard that right. I took grilled cheese and made it into croutons. Not sure how I never thought of this before, but the results were FANTASTIC. I have been making a lot of grilled cheese lately, and I get a lot of heat on Instagram for using mayo […]
Chickpea Pasta with Butternut Squash and Parm
I don’t know about you guys, but the craving for pasta lately has been off the charts. I guess it’s the whole “comfort food” thing, or maybe it’s the fact that it’s shelf-stable so we’ve all been stocking up. I’ve been trying my hand at different recipes and brands, and […]
Fettucine with Bacon, Leeks, and Cream
Sometimes the best ideas are right in front of you. In the current state of the world, we are being forced to stay inside and “self quarantine”. In MY world, however, that means “eat, cook, and eat what you cook”. Since there’s a lot of pasta in my cabinet right […]
Air Fryer Onion Rings with 4505 Meats Chicharrones (Pork Rinds)
I’m SO beyond thrilled at how these turned out! Had to give myself a quick pat on the back. I have never made onion rings before, let alone ones that are low carb, as they are coated in the delicious pork rinds from 4505 Meats! These chicharrones come in a […]
