Are you ready to eat?
Let’s go on a world food tour! Whatever you’re in the mood for, from meat-lovers to vegans, from Europe to Asia to North and South America, these recipes are for everyone who loves to eat delicious, simple food!
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!

Lemon Possets
A quick dessert that’s both simple and elegant, and perfect to make ahead for a special occasion! Neither overly sweet nor overpoweringly sour, its light, silky smooth texture and delicious blend of sweet and sour in a thick cream is what a showstopper is all about!
Kalter Hund (German Biscuit Chocolate Cake)
This has always been my birthday cake! Growing up, my mom would always make me this cake for my birthday, so I always associate it with happy memories! It might not be the prettiest cake, but where it lacks visually it makes up in simplicity. It's a no-baked cake made up of butter biscuits layered between a decadent fudgy chocolate mixture. It’s an unmatched combination and a chocolate lovers dream!
Hefezopf (Braided Sweet Bread)
This is one of those recipes that reminds me of home and my mom’s baking. A light, fluffy yeasted braided sweet bread with a lemon-sugar glaze on top, it’s both impressive to present and easier to make than you might think! And it’s so good, you can eat it plain or add some butter, or with your favorite spread, to make the perfect slice!
Cola-Braised Birthday Short Ribs
This is a fun and easy meal, that looks and tastes fancier than it is! Perfect for a family celebration! Using cola for both sweetness and a bit of flavor makes this dish taste so good! But don’t be alarmed, your short ribs won’t taste like cola. So who’s ready to dig into some fall-off-the-bone short ribs on a cooler fall evening!
