Saw King Arthur Baking’s recipe for Rosemary Grape Focaccia, and changed the recipe based on my own experience baking focaccia. It was INCREDIBLE and the best focaccia we have ever eaten! The grapes burst in the oven giving the focaccia a sweet kick, and the combination of roasted grapes and rosemary with the saltiness and…

Healthy items I regularly make that go with many meals
Garden Focaccia
During quarantine, baking has become super common, even for those who I know regularly avoid the kitchen. Even as someone who baked before this crazy time, I am finding myself baking much more frequently (also because I’m now with my parents, I’m I can share my baked creations with them, so my baked goods go…
Roasted Sweet Potato with Scrambled Eggs
I love any avocado egg combination, but when I saw this dish on feedfeed instagram with the addition of roasted sweet potato, and it completely elevated the avocado/egg game. Really could eat this dish for any meal of the day, I love how flavorful and colorful it is. Here’s how to make the roasted sweet…
One Pot Chickpea Shakshuka
I love normal (non-vegan) shakshuka with eggs, and have had subpar chickpea shakshuka’s before, so I had low expectations for this recipe. My vegan friend highly recommended this recipe from Minimalist Baker, so I decided to try it, and I very much enjoyed it! I also topped it with Eden Grinshpan’s Garlicky tahini, which I…

homemade buckwheat granola
I LOVE buckwheat and homemade granola, but have never tried this combo together! I found a recipe online and didn’t have too high of expectations, but really loved how it turned out! I’ve eaten it alone as a snack, with milk as a cereal, as a yogurt topping along with other fruits, and even coated…
Homemade Almond Milk (and flour)
Have you ever looked at the back of an almond milk package and wondered, what are these funky ingredients? I surely have, which is why I try to avoid overly processed nut milks. I had a few friends growing up who told me their mom’s would make homemade almond milk and it tastes completely different…
Homemade Tomato Sauce
I initially found a delicious recipe for pizza sauce rom Kitchen Treaty, but then found an easier (and less time intensive) recipe from She Loves Biscotti. I combined the two recipes to come up with a homemade tomato sauce that can be used for pizza and pasta. Homemade sauce is easy to make, and makes…
Grilled Pita Bread with Zaatar
I’ve tried making homemade pita bread a few times now, and this is by far my favorite recipe! I used Saveur’s recipe for Grilled Pita Bread with Zaatar with slight adjustments (in red) I halved the original recipe and ended up with 4 pitas HOMEMADE PITA BREAD WITH ZAATAR Ingredients 0.5 of a 1/4-oz. package…
