I’m still working on “Spring-Cleaning” my freezer. What do you get when you have: Sourdough Baguette, Bone-in Chicken Breast and Frozen Artichokes? Sounds like bruschetta to me! Sourdough Baguette drizzled in Olive Oil and Coated with Garlic & Parmesan Cheese. Topped with Baby Spinach Sauteed in a mix of Olive Oil, Garlic and White Wine. [...]

Once upon a time, not so long ago I worked in a bakery. I would bag, slice and stock bread from 6am-2:30pm almost every day. I loved it. I consider this job to be my biggest “life changing” opportunity. I don’t know where I would be today if I had said ‘no’ to the HR [...]
Frittata is one of my favorite go to dishes. If I have leftovers, produce that needs to be used or “nothing to eat in my fridge”, I make a frittata. If you have eggs and cheese on hand the options are endless. Last night I roasted a pumpkin and had NO clue what to do [...]
From start to finish, today was one of those “blah” days. I woke up late, worked like crazy and returned to my apartment in a fog. I couldn’t help but think, there has to be more to life than this mundane routine. I want to travel the world, experience new cultures and leave my footprint! [...]

After The falling incident on Monday, I didn’t want to leave Truffle alone for long. Dinner last night had to be easy cheesy. I roasted a small zucchini and eggplant. Topped it with Homemade San Marzano Sauce, Mozzarella and Grated Parmesan. And to finish it off, placed it all on a bed of spinach. Simple [...]
