This Peach Upside Down Skillet Cake showcases sweet summer peaches in a delicious way. (Yes, you can use thawed, frozen peaches in the off-season.) The cake has added flavor and structure by adding ground almonds to the batter. Peach slices are layered over an easy-to-make caramel. Once baked, the cake is inverted to reveal a show-stopping beautiful peach cake that will impress
The Best Strawberry Spinach Salad with a Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing
This Strawberry Spinach Salad has a Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing that is a perfect pairing for a salad. (Sometimes, we add sliced grill chicken to make this salad a healthy and complete meal.) The homemade balsamic vinaigrette, with poppy seed, is the perfect balance of a little sweet and a little tart, and just a hint of garlic. I'm updating this post with newer photos at the same time
The Best Bacon, Lettuce, Avocado and Tomato Pasta Salad (B.L.A.T.)
Fresh summer tomatoes are showcased in this easy deconstructed BLT into a pasta salad. I've added avocado to the creamy ranch dressing for a delicious salad that's perfect for a potluck party or a lunch or dinner meal. We have a bumper crop of sweet and juicy red tomatoes, this year. The funny thing is, the plants were labeled as cherry tomatoes. Nope. I have no idea what variety we ended up
Foolproof Cinnamon Chocolate Bundt Cake
The beauty of this Cinnamon Chocolate Bundt Cake recipe is that you don't need a mixer to make it! I used one of my newest Nordic Ware (Magnolia) Bundt Pans and I love how the design baked. You don't need a glass of milk to enjoy this as it's that tender and moist. However, the cake is perfect with a cup of coffee, too! NOTE: This is an old post before I finally invested in a variety of
Fast and Easy Chicken Yakitori Skewers
These Japanese Chicken Yakitori Skewers are so fast and simple to prepare. The homemade yakitori flavored sauce gives the chicken and green onion a charred and sticky flavor that is out of this world delicious! Before I retired, I'd occasionally treat myself to a take out lunch from a Japanese restaurant that was walking distance from my work place. I loved their Yakitori Chicken skewers,
How to Make Hazelnut Gelato
In the Ninja CREAMi Machine Hazelnut Gelato is my favorite favor. Sadly, I can only find it when I'm in Europe. I recently purchased a Ninja CREAMi Machine, and have been obsessed with making ice cream, gelato and sorbets. My attempt yielded a creamy and delicious flavor, just like when I remember from previous trips. Here, I share how to use the Ninja Creami Machine, and a few ideas of
How to Make Perfect Kettle Corn at Home
Kettle Corn is a the perfect movie snack for those who love a sweet and salty combo snack. You can find Kettle Corn booths at local farmer's markets or carnivals. While kettle corn was originally made in cast iron kettles (hence, the name) you can make it at home for a fraction of the cost with delicious results. Next to Rice Krispie Treats, Kettle Corn is a very dangerous thing to have in
Perfect Cheesy Cast Iron Pan Pizza
This Cheesy Cast Iron Pan pizza uses simple ingredients, and is incredibly delicious. The dough comes together super fast because it doesn't require any kneading. The no cook pizza sauce takes minutes to make. What makes this pizza really special is the "frico" (crispy cheese edge). There's no need to pay for pizza delivery, when you can make this simple and flavorful pizza in your own kitchen.
How to Make Vanilla Meringue Cookies and Mini Pavlovas
How to Make Mini Pavlovas Meringue Cookies are one of my favorite cookies. I love the crunchy texture and the creamy marshmallow center. They are so simple to make, and a perfect way to use up egg whites. They're fun to "pipe" into stars-- better yet, I like to make large shapes with an indentation. Once baked, they are filled with fresh whipped cream and topped with fresh fruit. These are
