Maple Kettle Corn

Recently at a local festival, a Maple Kettle Corn stand with its tempting, sweet aroma kept calling my name. My husband and I made the decision to be strong and just walk away, and as we turned our backs towards it I was proud of the willpower we both demonstrated.

At some point I noticed that I was walking by myself, and when I turned around to look for my husband he was of course first in line at the kettle corn stand! To heck with willpower! I ran to catch up and grabbed a handful out of his bag. It was warm, sweet, crunchy and salty all at the same time. It was heavenly! Within seconds the whole family was grabbing handfuls practically inhaling the stuff. Luckily, I wore a cowl neck t-shirt which caught all my droppings (my family was mortified) and nothing was wasted. I'm not proud.

The Perfect Lemon Bars Recipe

I've been working on how to make The Perfect Lemon Bars Recipe for a while now... but you see, it's not that easy. The crust should be tender and buttery without being too gritty, crumbly, or worse... soggy. The filling should be a perfect balance between tart and sweet, but not too tart and it should complement and not overtake the buttery, melt in your mouth shortbread. Hungry?

Roasted Soy Ginger Salmon

You know a fish recipe is good when your kid requests it for dinner every week! Roasted Soy Ginger Salmon couldn't be healthier, especially when served with sautéed Asian mushrooms or broccoli and brown rice  – and luckily it adheres to my "five ingredients or less" rule!

Green Juice Fast

Needless to say, after a week at Universal Studios in Orlando I needed to cleanse! I've discovered that a Green Juice Fast doesn't have to be painful. To my surprise, it's actually been quite pleasurable and I really look forward to drinking my favorite green juice! I know there are a lot of green juice recipes out there, but this one is so good that everyone I make it for asks for the recipe. So here it is. Let me know how it works for you.
