The sun is shining today, it’s even supposed to be 73 degrees. That’s almost vacation weather in my book. Spring is so beautiful in Oregon, there is just nothing that compares to the green we have here. Well, maybe Ireland could give us a run for our money…. Anyway, the stores are filled with Easter candy galore and it’s so…

Deviled Egg-Hummus Spread
I always associate deviled eggs with the holidays. I guess many people do. They are kind of the perfect passed appetizer. However, I find myself making the spread version more than the common halved lengthwise and stuffed adaptation. I like this way better and more of the egg taste we all love.

Sticky Asian Chicken Spaghetti
Does your family prefer spaghetti noodles over all other kinds? I mean, there are so many cute and functional pasta shapes out there, but I find myself serving the same, plain and classic noodles the most.

Mardi Gras celebrations are in full swing and it’s no different in my kitchen, especially with this favorite soup and simple kid’s dessert. However, I do enjoy the Cajun flavors with seafood the best. It’s the perfect pairing of spice and…

Broccoli, Bacon and Cheese Pie
I’m calling this a pie. Yes, it resembles a quiche, but I prefer to call it a pie. It seems more manly that way. Plus I wanted a more rustic looking version that does not require rolling anything out or having to make actual dough. The crust here is cheese based, you just press it in the pan and it’s…

Buttery Almond Pound Cake with Almond Glaze
I was going to call this the evil pound cake. It’s almost impossible to stop eating once you take a bite. I mean, you just can’t stop. In fact, when I make this cake, I immediately give it away. I can’t have it here. Around me. Ever. It’s that good. I’m sure some of you are thinking, “then why even make…
