These smoky grilled apricot lamb kebabs are a great way to enjoy American spring lamb. Special enough to serve for Easter, easy enough to grill up on a weeknight!
These whole roasted onions are seasoned with sweet balsamic vinegar and fresh thyme. The long roast time leaves them soft and buttery, almost melting in your mouth with each bite. I’m basically bi-polar when it comes to onions. There aren’t many other foods I find more disgusting than raw onions. Ugh, gag, gross. That raw onion taste …
These gluten free granola crust mini cheesecakes are infused with lemon and thyme and topped with a quick blueberry thyme compote. When you think New York and you think food, what is it known for? A few things come to mind, apples obviously (boring), bagels (nothing compares to a NY bagel, that’s for sure), pizza …
These spring gyros are topped with a sweet and refreshing apricot salsa, quick yogurt sauce and fresh pea sprouts. They’re definitely not your average gyro! I hope you’re reading that title as “yee-ro” and not the butchered American pronunciation.

Eating local seasonal produce as much as possible (I do live in New York, not California) has always been one of my “things”. When Ulysses …
These paleo lemon macaroons are filled with bright lemon zest and lemon juice then dipped in dark chocolate for a delicious spring treat. I’m not really sure if it’s me getting older and totally more grouchy or if the jokes are just all played out (probably the former), but I’m so over April Fool’s Day. From Amazon …
