Moist Quinoa Chocolate Muffins With Chocolate Ganache

When I opened my fridge yesterday I was pleased. Most of the leftovers were gone and the fridge was almost ready to be re-filled with food. The only leftover in it was a container with cooked red quinoa in it. After discovering a few days earlier, that cooked quinoa can be used in baked goods, […]

Lemon Meringue Butter Cookies

T’is the season for baking, or so they say, but really every season is a season for baking.

Fresh Mint Lime & Cookies with Lemon Drizzle

What’s your favorite ingredient in the summer? For me it’s definitely lemon, or lime, or just generally sour and refreshing. Yesterday I decided that the limes in my fridge were there for too long and that I need to put them into proper use. So I did, I made cookies, and to make them even […]

Sprite Popsicles – A “Spritesicle” Full of Surprises

It’s summer, and living in a house made of wood with no A/C can sometimes be hot, very hot. So other than turning the fans on and opening the windows I’m always up for something cold to munch on.   This time I decided to surprise the kids and make them a “Surprise Popsicle”; why […]
