The New York Times prefaces this recipe by saying, “pancakes are so easy to make that they encourage experimentation”. I usually stick to my true and tested buttermilk pancakes, but these cornmeal-blueberry pancakes made wonder, how the heck didn’t I think of that before?? I love cornmeal; […]
Breakfast
Ricotta Tomato Toast
It’s tomato season and I’m always looking for ways to celebrate this juicy summer fruit in all its glory. This ricotta tomato toast hardly requires a recipe, but it’s so wonderful in its simplicity that it deserves a post of its own. The secret to […]
Classic French Crêpes
These pancake’s French counterpart are so delicate and delicious. Classic French Crêpes are elegant and thin, because they don’t have any leavening agents, which also means they’re not as fluffy. But they’re folded and rolled with a plethora of fillings, so they can be just […]
Pumpkin Pancakes with Cinnamon Brown Butter
I know what you’re thinking. Pumpkin pancakes for fall. Groundbreaking. But allow me to be cheugy and cliche for a second. You can’t escape certain cliches, but like me, you can fully embrace Meg Ryan fall. It brings me joy. Give me chunky knit sweaters, […]
Gochujang Eggs in Purgatory with Chickpeas
This dish is a lot of things I like all at once: it’s one pot, it’s eggs poached in a spicy tomato sauce, it’s breakfast. Gochujang is a fairly new ingredient to me, but I like it so much, I’m always looking for an excuse […]
Prosciutto & Goat Cheese Croissant Sandwich
Do you really need a recipe for a prosciutto and goat cheese sandwich? Okay, maybe not. But as I type this, it’s so hot. Too hot to cook and I can’t even fathom turning on the oven. I’ve recently shared my shrimp ceviche recipe that’s […]
Buttermilk Donut Holes
These little Buttermilk Donut Holes hold a special place in my heart. Growing up, my mom used to make these from time to time, but she’d usually keep them for rainy days. They always felt like such special little treats. We’d ask her to undercook […]
Fried Halloumi and Burst Tomatoes Toast
I’ve got a new recipe for you for those long days of summer when the sun is shinning and you’re sitting on the porch, reading a book or surrounded by friends. There’s Aperol spritz on the table, and all you need is a quick, mediterranean-style […]
Overnight Oats with Tahini
For a self-proclaimed breakfast lover/ expert, I have quite a few issues with some breakfast foods, including an aversion to “mushy” ones. Let’s just put it this way: I don’t like to eat my breakfast with a spoon. You’ll rarely catch me having a smoothie […]
Burrata & Mortadella Toast
I love an elaborate breakfast. I usually wake up craving a big serving of eggs, hash brows, and avocado on the side – actually, add some crisp slices of bacon to that. I’ve always been a huge breakfast eater (eat breakfast like a king kinda […]
Chickpea Shakshuka
I rarely keep any canned food, but there are a few I like to have on hand. Chickpeas and canned tomatoes, for example, are a constant in my cupboard. As much as I enjoy dried chickpeas, for their taste and benefits, soaking them overnight followed […]
Slow-Cooked Chickpeas on Toast with Poached Egg
If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you know how much I love Yotam Ottolenghi’s recipes. I’m not a vegetarian, but his unique take on vegetables is very inspiring. I knew I wanted to try this Slow-Cooked Chickpeas on Toast with Poached Egg from his book […]

Browned Butter Sweet Potatoes and Eggs Bowl with Green Tahini
I haven’t shared any breakfast recipes in a while, and if you read this blog you know I’m a breakfast aficionado, so I had to do something about it, obviously. This Browned Butter Sweet Potatoes and Eggs Bowl with Green Tahini looks like a lot […]
Sautéed Mushroom Breakfast Toast with Spicy Mayo
The holidays are here! Cue the Christmas movie marathon. Ugh I’m so excited. I watch the same ones every year, because unlike my adventurous eating tendencies, when it comes to Christmas movies I want the same old ones over and over again. It’s comforting, blissful […]
