Basil tomato squash
A fresh taste of summer. Low calorie, big flavor, satisfying. I just created it tonight instead of a caprese salad. (Because someone ate all the fresh mozzarella, ugh.)

Zuccheroni – Vegan Pepperoni
This started as a wild experiment for a family member who was trying to become a vegetarian. Made from thinly sliced zucchini “cured” in olive oil and spices, it can be served cold as antipasto, or baked onto a pizza.
Turnips Green, Turkey Butts and Potatoes
This is a very old recipe I got from my mother. She would make this one pot meal using all kinds of fresh greens.
Air Fired Mahi Mahi with Coconut Mushroom Caper Cream Sauces
As a busy, tired new mom, I love using the air fryer to make my night simple. This meaty fish and sauce can be served with your favorite sides or even on top of rice.
Spiced Carrots, Chickpeas, and Herbs
These golden brown carrots and chickpeas, paired with the punchy and tangy dressing, is something you’ll want to serve at every meal! Eat as an appetizer, side dish, or even main course.
Cubano Pizza
If you have never had a Cubano Sandwich before – you are really missing out. They are so delicious with ham, pork, swiss cheese, onions, pickles, and mustard piled high on a nice crusty bread and usually grilled or pressed to melt it all together. I love them so much that I turned them into a pizza!!! Cubano Pizza is all of those yummy flavors on a delicious pizza crust – and you are going to love it!
One-Pot Garlic Pasta
One-Pot meals are always a go to for me – especially as we get back into the swing of balancing school and work and life. I wanted to have something with a little more kick to it so I decided to make this One-Pot Garlic Pasta with some hot Italian sausage in addition to the mild.
Pear fried rice
Fried rice with bacon, hot links, pears and edamame topped with scallions.
Vegetarian Barbe-Fu
This was a new one for me, trying to create something delicious for a team member’s going away party at work. Most of my meals/dishes are very meat forward, but she’s vegan so we tried to make her a meal she’d remember. This tofu recipe blends the flavors, techniques, and style of a normal barbecue, but replaces the meat with extra firm tofu.
