Crave-driven recipes and lifestyle inspiration.
This recipe may not be the most photogenic but it’s one of my new favorites. I would never call myself a vegetarian – because let’s be serious, some meat dishes are too good to pass up – but I’ve been making a conscious effort to eat a primarily vegetarian diet. That means, lots of veggie burgers!

With the weather cooling down quickly and bikini season far behind us, it’s acceptable to eat pasta every night… right? Even during warmer weather, I crave a large, comforting bowl of pasta at least once a week. For me, penne vodka is one of the most classically comforting pasta dishes there are.

It’s been a while since I’ve shared a recipe, so I’m making it up to you with these festive cupcakes. Birthdays are always a great excuse to bake. With a friend’s 25th approaching, he put in a request for ‘Funfetti’ cupcakes. Because I’d never buy boxed cake mix, I decided to create the perfect vanilla cupcake then turn them to Funfetti myself!

Spring is finally here… it’s been cold & rainy but it’s finally here! While thinking of seasonal recipes, I wanted to create a fresh, healthy dish packed with veggies and herbs. Loaded with asparagus, peas, basil & chives, this quinoa salad definitely hit the spot.

Thanks to March Madness I’ve discovered two things. First, it takes zero skill/knowledge to fill out a bracket and second, watching college basketball gives me a craving for chocolate chip cookies. Maybe it’s because the games bore me, or maybe because it’s an excuse to bake cookies but either way, I won’t fight the urge.

Boozy cupcakes are one of my favorite things to make during St. Patty’s day for two reasons, the booze and the cupcakes. The light carbonation of Guinness gives these cupcakes delicious flavor and a perfectly airy consistency.

The Spring season & St. Patrick’s day are the two best things March has to offer. Each year on St. Patty’s day, I ignore that I’m 0% Irish and take part in traditional cooking, baking & drinking. While Irish coffee and boozy cupcakes are my specialties, I look forward to soda bread each St. Patty’s day & decided to make my own this year.

Other than cooking/baking measurements, there’s not much I enjoy about numbers. Math has always been my least favorite thing in the world, probably because I suck at, BUT that won’t stop me from celebrating a mathematical holiday called ‘Pi Day’.
…
One of my favorite parts about Judaism, is it’s a religion celebrated through various foods and recipes. Each year during late Winter/early Spring we celebrate ‘Purim’, to commemorate the defeat of Haman’s plot to destroy all the Jews in ancient Persia. Although not the most exciting holiday, Purim does have the most delicious pastry… hamantaschen!

Valentine’s day is upon us & I hope everyone is planning some sweet treats to make for your sweethearts!
