Dairy-Free Fudge Pops I was inspired by the heat wave we had last weekend to make popsicles—possibly the most summery treat of all. These are dairy free and super creamy and delicious, with just the right amount of sweetness. The original recipe calls for a tablespoon of instant espresso powder, so feel free to add … Continue reading Dairy-Free Fudge Pops

This recipe (very loosely … Continue reading Norwegian Heart Waffles (gluten free)

I went for this delicious Swiss chard dip to tide me over until I can get my hands on some local asparagus and snap peas. It’s so good that it almost makes me feel … Continue reading Swiss Chard Tahini Dip
It almost felt like spring this weekend, and we took advantage of the warmer weather to go on another epic NYC walking food adventure. With running a few errands in the morning before the adventure began, I walked 13.7 miles on Sunday!

I’ve been wanting to bake this technicolor bread since I received Simple, the new Ottolenghi cookbook, as a gift this past Christmas.
