My love affair with salads has been firmly accounted for on this blog. A couple of years ago I even devoted a whole week titled “Salad Scentral” with daily recipe posts to get the New Year started off on a healthy note. Well I have a couple of newbies to add to your rotation. And in a quick post, I will share the recipes, photos, and pleas for you to please make these two beauts at home! Your lunchbox will be very happy this week if you do!

Recipe: Woman Crush Wednesday
I just love vegetables! I had to put that out there, and it will make sense in a minute. But what I love most is my weekly homage to the female chefs in the culinary world. Wednesday is more than a hump day to mark the slide towards the weekend. For me it is the focal point of the week. I get so much joy honoring a gorgeous gourmet gal by recreating one of her recipes live on Snapchat (username blissbakery). But today’s episode, number 97 if you are counting, is especially dear to me because of the incredible chef Nyesha Arrington!
Recipe Round Up! Homemade Holiday Brunch Ideas

Pumpkin Recipe Roundup!
My LOVE of all things pumpkin is well documented. I know I am not alone. I just read a blog post titled 20 Signs Your Pumpkin Addiction is Out of Control! It actually makes me look tame! In fact, while I have posted pumpkin recipes on here before, this is the first time I have ever put all ten of my fav pumpkin recipes together on one post. My little Halloween treat for you! I don’t need to say much else, because, well, I just want to gaze at the photos and drool! And I hope your taste buds get tantalized too! Continue reading

Recipe: Courgette Cakes
One of the best things about teaching cookery classes is seeing the students delighted with themselves when they have recreated a dish I have demoed. Especially one that is a bit different than the norm. Such is the case with these savory Courgette Cakes. Or as my American friends might call them, Zucchini Fritters. In essence they are a pancake. However, not your typical Sunday brunch pancake which is a butter and syrup laden affair. Continue reading
Recipe: Tea and Taco Treat!
As I am with family in America at the moment, posting recipes and getting foodie pics isn’t as convenient. With two grandbabies around, meal times have a different and more appropriate focus than an Instagrammable photo! But since I am a Mexican food lover, and my daughter whipped up some yummy tacos the other night, I had to share them! Continue reading
