I am typically not one to make copycat recipes but this fun take on cold brew reallyyy has stolen my heart.  My challenge for National Coffee Day this year was to recreate Starbucks’ newest 2019 pumpkin drink: Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew. More coffee forward than a PSL, made with real pumpkin, and served in a “sippy” cup in order to experience the sweet frothy cream on top – I will admit it’s one of the […]

I know you’re all too familiar with Caesar, but Brassica-whattt??? Brassica literally just refers to the cabbage family of veggies (cauliflower,  kale, cabbage, arugula, Brussel sprouts, etc) also called cruciferous vegetables. It may sound fancy but believe me – this is one of my quickest, easiest recipes to date! Why did I change up the lettuce component here??

Retro cakes have made a comeback, so thought it was time to invest in a bundt pan! Also, when I spotted a purple bundt – I knew it was meant to be. Bundt cake making was clearly destined to happen in my kitchen 😉 Can we take a moment to talk about the blueberry orange combo?? It is a good idea or is it a reallyyyy goooood idea??? Whip up this cake and then answer […]
