You might be wondering, why not just use Chai tea and make it “Almond Butter and CHAI TEA Overnight Oats”? Rolls off the tongue nicer, no? And while you are right, the answer is, I found it to be a little too overpowering that way. The balance is justtttt right […]
Welcome to my two biggest weaknesses: coffee and chocolate. Considering that previous statement, it felt right to mix the two in my overnight oats for breakfast. Because if I don’t get caffeine inside of me 5 minutes after I open my eyes, things will get ugly. I wish I wasn’t […]
I basically forgot to post this last month for Greek Easter, so here you go. As some of you probably know by now, I’m half Greek and I make a mean spanakopita, but the process with the phyllo dough can be GRUELING. It’s just a lot of work and this […]
This pasta is one of my favorites to make. It’s so easy, but it does require a certain amount of attention to detail. For example, when making the sauce, be sure to reserve a little bit of pasta water – the starches in it from cooking the pasta help to […]

Ok so I know I’ve admitted this many times, but I love oatmeal and I eat it for breakfast every day. EVERY. DAY. Alright, I suppose there’s the occasional hangover that requires a bacon-laden feast with ample room for carbs, but most mornings it’s a solid serving of steel cut […]
So I know I’ve talked about this before, but I really, really love this marinara sauce recipe from the NYT Cooking blog. I’ve gotten feedback from a couple of you that it was a little watery for your taste, but here’s the issue: YOU HAVE TO LET IT REDUCE A […]
