Red Lentil Soup
So I came across this recipe last year when I was looking for an easy soup recipe for my classes. I’m a big lentil fan and even though I wasn’t sure I liked the idea of all the ingredients combined, but since I likes the ingredients individually, I thought I would give it a go.…
Unicorn Cake Ball
So this may be one of my favorite food crafts: Rainbow Cake Balls. I take those cake balls and create all kinds of whimsical creatures from unicorns to caterpillars. This post is all about unicorns. I used the best cake ball recipe ever. It is a recipe I’ve been using for years now. I like…
Chocolate Bark
Chocolate bark is an easy way to personalize and make a classic Valentine’s Day gift more special. All you need is chocolate and whatever you want to use to decorate it. I used sprinkles and pink candy melts. The first step is to prepare where you are going to assemble the chocolate bark on. Cover…
Hot White Chocolate Peppermint Bombs
So I first came across hot chocolate bombs late last year. Now I am not a big hot chocolate drinker. In fact, the last time I had hot choc was 2 years ago. What I liked about the bombs was the aesthetics of the product: this perfect sphere of chocolatey yumminess decorated to entice. With…

Gingerbread Cookies
I have always loved the idea of gingerbread cookies and decorating gingerbread houses, but I am not a fan of crunchy hard cookies.

Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
So I mentioned in my last hummus post that while I will eat traditntal hummus, I am not a big fan of it. My all time favorite hummus is roasted red pepper. I fell in love as soon as I tasted this for the first time. And what I like about hummus is that it…
Duo Choc Chip Skillet Cookie
So I made this cookie for the first time during spring 2020. I loved the process cos it is the easiest of cookie recipes that I have ever used. And the kiddos loved making it too. By the end of the spring term, a coupla of the students announced how they had made the cookie…
Pumpkin Spice Snickerdoodles
I am a big fan of cookies, especially the chewy and soft ones. So, I was excited to try this Fall twist on the classic cinnamon snickerdoodle. These pumpkin spice cookies do not contain pumpkin, but they do have the classic fall spice mix. First step is to preheat the oven. Add the sugar to…
