maple pecan butter

published 4 months ago

Just to set the record straight, I have never ventured into the land of making my own nut butter. I always dismissed it, speculating that it was too complicated or time consuming a task. Now that I have made it – and understand how easy it is – I’m a little sad that I waited [...]

creamy millet oatmeal with maple & strawberry compote

published 5 months ago

I’ve been away for a while because of our recent relocation across the country: we said farewell to Colorado in late March and arrived in New Jersey just as the moving truck began to unload our belongings.  A few rooms  still remind us that we are knee deep in boxes. But, overall we are getting [...]

This recipe is inspired by the New York Times original recipe as well as the stunning  photos of Smitten Kitchen‘s adaptation. Delish. I’m not a huge sweet person. But, every once in a while, I like to enjoy a little piece of heaven on the weekend for our “Sunday morning family breakfast extravanganza.”  It’s been years since I’ve made something [...]

This is a recipe I adapted from Rose Carrarini’s Breakfast, Lunch, Tea cookbook. We had it for breakfast this morning and it was so delicious. Very satisfying. My son loved it – but my daughter is still working on her molars so she was having a hard time chewing the nuts and seeds with sore, [...]
