A great party appetizer. Looks fancy but is so simple. Can you even handle the cuteness of these baby eggplants?
My favorite banana muffins, this time topped with cream cheese kisses. Mwah!
A quick and simple condiment that tastes wonderful served with any grilled meat, but it doubles as a marinade, too!
A lovely, tasty and easy dessert sure to impress your guests. There’s nothing better than pears and almonds. Yum!

Making your own yogurt is so ridiculously simple and tastes absolutely divine. You may never go back to store-bought again.

My version of my favorite sandwich from Panera Bread: their Mediterranean Veggie.

A fun cross between broccoli and cauliflower sassed up with some Indian flavor.

A hearty, and somewhat healthy take on using mixed beans. With added veggies and chorizo, this one is sure to warm the belly.

Plump, juicy strawberries stuffed with a creamy cheesecake filling, sprinkled with crushed Nilla wafers and drizzled with chocolate! Everywhere I bring these, I always get “oohs” and “aahs” and they always disappear quickly! Extremely easy to make, and you can customize them to your taste. They are wonderful topped with crushed graham crackers, pecans, white chocolate, or eat them plain with just the cheesecake filling.
1. Cut a straight line across the top of each strawberry (removing stem), so berries stand upright. Place strawberries cut side down and make a criss cross cut on the bottom of each strawberry. Cut no more than 3/4 of the way down, making sure you do not cut all the way through. Gently fan out wedges.
2. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla extract, until creamy and smooth. Fill mixture into a pastry bag or Ziploc bag. Cut a small slit on one end of the bag.
3. Gently fill each strawberry with the cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle crushed Nilla wafer cookies on top.
4. Microwave chocolate chips in a small bowl for about 1 minute, or until melted. Stir melted chocolate with a fork and drizzle over the top of the strawberries. You can drizzle as much or as little of the chocolate as you’d like.
5. Refrigerate until ready to serve, and enjoy!
Note: these are best if served the same day.

It’s pretty weighty, giving any recipe the title “Worlds Best …” but these cookies totally deserve it. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside with lots of plump, juicy raisins. And they are definitely worth the extra wait time. Yum!

Since I love Hawaiian bread so much we decided to make bread pudding out of it, and since it is “Hawaiian” we decided to add some pineapple. And what goes better with pineapple than coconut?

People will seriously swoon when you show up with these cake balls. Swoon, I tell you. Red velvet cake and cheesecake and chocolate? They’re also, despite looking really fancy, surprisingly straightforward to make. That being said, cake balls and pops are always fiddly the first time you make them and they require a little trial and error, but the great thing about them is that they always taste amazing.

aaaahhhh-mazing. my hubby actually made them, i found the recipe. we made a few small changes though, instead of the vanilla wafers he crushed up a graham cracker crust, stuffed that down inside the strawberries and then filled them with the cheesecake stuff. then sprinkled the graham cracker on top of the berries and then drizzled chocolate. we used milk chocolate (personal preference) but these were a HUGE hit!! thanks!!

They were really good! I doubled the recipe for a party, and they were a huge hit. My filling wasn’t quite as lovely, but I blame the user on that. I sprinkled graham cracker crumbs on top instead because I had some left over and used a ganache, which was delicious. Excellent recipe and super easy!
