Apple Cranberry Smoothie
Celebrate the flavors of the season with my vibrant Apple Cranberry Smoothie recipe! Packed full of fall flavors, like crisp apple, tart fresh cranberries, creamy Greek yogurt, rich almond butter, and a dash of warm spices, this smoothie is truly a seasonal delight that you’ll want to make all year round. Sweetened with a hint of vanilla and a touch of honey (or agave), this delicious breakfast smoothie will literally make your taste buds dance!
Chocolate Pecan Brioche Bread Pudding
This Chocolate Pecan Brioche Bread Pudding is a luxurious dessert that combines a creamy custard mixture with buttery French brioche, rich dark chocolate, and pecans, resulting in a soufflé-like texture and amazing flavor that will send you straight to dessert heaven! Served freshly baked with French vanilla ice cream for a really decadent treat.
Tomato Bruschetta
Our Tomato Bruschetta is a lovely appetizer to serve before any meal. Garlic is slowly simmered in extra virgin olive oil, then combined with fresh vine ripened tomatoes, aged balsamic vinegar, and fresh basil. The quality of the ingredients is key in this easy recipe, since there are so few. The tangy and herby flavor pairs perfectly with our crusty homemade garlic crostini. This Tomato Bruschetta is sure to satisfy even the most traditional Italian palate.
Easy Chilaquiles Verdes
My Easy Chilaquiles Verdes recipe brings you traditional Mexican comfort food made easy. A few simple ingredients turn into a zesty breakfast that is so satisfying and flavorful. Corn tortillas are lightly fried, then added to scrambled eggs, salsa verde, and pepper jack cheese to make up this quick and easy casserole-like dish that is made directly on your stovetop. Garnish this quick and easy breakfast dish with more salsa, avocado, cotija cheese, fresh cilantro, and our version of healthy Mexican crema to create a delicious and hearty breakfast dish just like Abuelita (Grandma) used to make! It also happens to be vegetarian and gluten free!
