My goal is to showcase delicious dishes that I’ve made, which I find are (relatively) easy to make! Some recipes require more time, and effort, while others are done within 30 minutes, but, I promise, you’ll be pleased with what you’ve made!

Unlike other sites, I won’t be detailing all of my thoughts and feelings about each recipe because, let’s be real, in the end, you just want to figure out how to make the dish and what you need to buy at the grocery store. I cut right to the chase and tell you the ingredients you’ll need and show you what the final dish will look like!

As a side note, I’m a big fan of onions, garlic, ginger, and everything spicy, so my recipes might be somewhat heavy with these ingredients, or at least more so than some people :) Be aware of this and adjust these ingredients to your own preferences because you’re the one who will be doing the eating! Enjoy!

Fudgy Cherry Chocolate Blondies

Blondies are like brownies, but are made using brown sugar instead of cocoa. Since cocoa absorbs moisture, not using it leaves you with a softer, chewier texture which is what makes these blondies so delicious! Add to the that fresh, seasonal cherries and you're left with extra fudgy blondies! A perfect pairing of chocolate and cherries for a perfect summer treat!

Grilled Jerk Chicken with Fluffy Coconut Rice and Beans

This is sunshine and beach days wrapped up in a delicious meal! Light, fluffy coconut rice, topped with mangoes and a sweet, but spicy jerk sauce, is the perfect side to a piece of crispy jerk chicken! And after letting the chicken marinade overnight, baking the chicken and making the rice will have you finishing both dishes at about the same time, so nothing gets cold before you eat! Perfection!

German Lebkuchen

Lebkuchen are THE German cookie at Christmas time! From local bakeries, to Christmas markets, to mass produced varieties at every grocery store, Lebkuchen are everywhere during Christmas. And for good reason, they are absolutely delicious! They are absolutely a staple in my household! Lebkuchen also come in all shapes, sizes, and toppings, so while I prefer the chocolate ones, finding ones with a simple icing glaze or no glaze at all are also very common, so feel free to experiment a bit!

Garlic-Brown Sugar Pork Tenderloin with Grilled Onions

Pork and mustard are a match made in heaven! Add some brown sugar for that kick of sweetness and you’re in business! For this recipe, I like to reverse sear the pork tenderloin to give it a nice brown crust. Pair with some grilled onions and a veggie side and you’ve got yourself a deliciously fun meal!
