Exposing another human being to the way I eat is. Well. A process. There are rules. Clauses. Entire treatises on high fructose corn syrup and why I would never willingly allow myself or anyone I love to ingest it. It's really a full-on legal document. A contract between myself andmyself. Of

Buffalo Chicken Pita Pizza
I'm not as particular about cooking as some may think. Food doesn't always have to be homemade. Ingredients don't have to be home grown. Dishes don't always have to be from scratch. The truth is, it's a challenge enough to get dinner on the table after a long day at work so I take shortcuts where I

Chocolate Ganache Whiskey Tortes
I believe I can chalk up my extended absences here to a variety of reasons. Experts tell me I’m not supposed to address it but I’ve decided to ignore them because these days, it seems everyone is an expert on how to blog. To some extent, mentioning it does feel a bit like having [...]

Peanut Butter Potato Salad
I love peanut butter. Not only is it full of energy boasting protein, it’s a versatile food that’s just as good straight out of the jar as it is incorporated into both savory and sweet dishes. That’s why my pantry is never without a few varieties of peanut butter. With Memorial Day just around the

Turkey Club Biscuits
Bread excites me. I've grown accustomed to not eating as much bread as I used to. Occasionally I'll enjoy GF versions but it just isn't the same. However, ever since I started playing with a gluten free flour blend that I really had success with, I've been excited to bake again. So this time ...
