What do you get when…
What do you get when you mix eggplant, marinated sun dried tomatoes, peppers, onion, garlic, chick peas and cauliflower? Absolute deliciousness, that’s what!

TEST: Gluten-Free Apple Pie Bars
It’s as American as Apple Pie! What?!! Did you know that pie predates the Ancient Romans? Pie was made to be portable. It was, and still is, cheaper to make pie than bread. Pies are fascinating to me. They can be sweet or savory and just about every culture makes some form of pie. Here are…

Feeling Homesick? Make Pizzelles
I don’t know why, but I’ve been feeling a little homesick this week. I’ve been living away from the Philadelphia area for about 14 years. So, you would think homesickness would be a thing of the past, but it does happen every now and again. And, when this feeling of yearning for home sets in,…
