Pumpkin Muffins

October 18, 2017

By now, you’re more than familiar with my pumpkin obsession. When I was searching for the perfect pumpkin bread pan a few years ago, I found the most fall-tastic pan from Williams-Sonoma. Attached to this pan, was a delicious pumpkin bread recipe. So, I dug up the tag and turned that pumpkin bread recipe into pumpkin muffins. All too often, I find a delicious bread recipe, wanting to make muffins.…

Pumpkin Succulent Centerpieces

October 4, 2017

Fall is my favorite season. And my favorite thing about fall? Pumpkins. Not just PSLs, but the actual fruit. Growing up in the ‘burbs, I loved going to Lyman Orchards to pick out pumpkins. By the end of the trip, I’d pick out every pumpkin I could carry. I wanted to carve them all! To further my pumpkin addiction, I made these adorable pumpkin succulent centerpieces. Call me crafty. Fatima…

Julia’s Best Banana Bread

August 16, 2017

While we were in Maui, banana bread was everywhere. For two people who love fall and are counting down the days until then, this was a treat. One of our first encounters with banana bread was at the Old Lahaina Luau. We got a loaf as a gift at the end of the night. It was heavenly. From that moment on, we saw banana bread everywhere. However, we had our…

Pumpkin Bisque

November 21, 2016

If you could whip up fall over the stove, it would be called Pumpkin Bisque. This is one of my favorite recipes to make in the fall. I recently made this for our Harry Potter Halloween Party last month and I plan to make it again for Thanksgiving. What’s great about this recipe is you can substitute the pumpkin purée for butternut squash. I realize that butternut squash may be the…

Sweet and Savory Sweet Potato Pastries

October 5, 2016

Fall is our favorite season. Growing up in New England, I loved experiencing the changes in the leaves, the crunch they make when you step on them, and the cool, crisp air. My family’s annual Halloween Party this year is Harry Potter-themed. It has been so much fun to plan. I think it will be our most Pinteresting Halloween Party, yet! We wanted to experiment with some of the internet’s greatest…

Our Six Favorite Slow Cooker Recipes

September 23, 2016

Fall has arrived! Well, this warm weather doesn’t feel like it’s arrived, BUT today is the first FULL DAY of Fall! So we put together our favorite slow cooker recipes. Did anyone feel a slight chill yesterday around 10:21am? Our Crock Pot is one of our favorite kitchen appliances. The amount of chili and beef stew could feed all of Manhattan. When the weather gets cooler, sometimes you just want to…

Vegetarian Sweet Potato Hash with Fresh Avocado

March 29, 2016

Our friend Ashley made a delicious sweet potato hash for our “First Day of Fall” party a few months ago. It was delicious. When thinking about what we were going to make for Brunch this past Easter weekend, we had a leftover sweet potato from our sweet potato mash and tilapia dinner the other night. Using Ashley’s dish as a guide, we put our twist on this and made vegetarian sweet potato hash. Hash can…

Sweet Potato Mash

March 15, 2016

There’s nothing like having sweet potato mash in the fall. Almost like having sweet potato pie with your turkey. But why wait until then? Last week, we made baked tilapia with sides of broccoli and sweet potato mash. It was delicious. One large sweet potato will yield 3-4 servings. If you love sweet potatoes and anticipate a heavy handed spoonful, use 2 sweet potatoes. The warm undertones of the cinnamon,…

Apple Cider Spiced Sangria

November 30, 2015

An apple a day keeps the doctor away, right? Would a cup of Apple Cider Spiced Sangria do the same? Boy, do we love apples. In the fall, I could make and eat apple pie ever week if I could. Sangria is a lovely creation. Summer parties, Halloween, and even the winter, sangria can be made to please your guests all times of the year, for any occasion. The recipe below…

Pumpkin Spice Chex Mix

October 21, 2015

My aunt Linda makes some of the best chex mix around. I always look forward to Christmastime when a box arrives at my parents’ house with her homemade chex mix inside. We attempted our own crock pot chex mix last year. However, I will never go back to that. From now on, we are making this pumpkin spice chex mix whenever we can. But yes, there will always be room…

Apple Pie Muddy Buddies

October 19, 2015

The first time I had muddy buddies (some may call this puppy chow), was back in college during one of our summers working as orientation leaders. On one of our training days, we had an assignment where we had to deliver step-by-step instructions to the rest of the group on anything. I talked about cleaning sneakers and the effects of oxidation. One of the other orientation leaders made muddy buddies. To spice…

Garlic Lime Brussel Sprouts

November 24, 2014

Fatima made these garlic lime brussel sprouts as a side for our honey glazed salmon dish. They were awesome! Like I mentioned in the salmon post, I fell in love with brussel sprouts at last year’s Sidesmas (hosted annually by our friend Kate – check out Ummm Now What). These brussel sprouts complemented our salmon dish really well. Not to mention, these were really easy to make. Basically, sauté them until…
