The Quirky Girl Cocktail
The Quirky Girl Cocktail is a little sweet, a little sour, and very quirky. It's a killer combination of blueberry, lemon, lavender simple syrup, and vodka that is sure to cleanse any palette.
New Classic Buttercream
This is real French buttercream reorganized to eliminate the trickiest steps. Traditional French buttercream requires pouring hot sugar syrup over eggs while beating steadily -- without scrambling them or splattering most of the syrup around the sides of the bowl. Then the mixture is reheated (to be sure that the eggs get cooked but not scrambled) and beaten again to cool before beating in the butter. Pastry chefs make this all the time, but home cooks are at a disadvantage because small batches are trickier than large batches. This recipe produces classic results with fewer, easier steps. Recipe from Flavor Flours: A New Way to Bake With Teff, Buckwheat, Sorghum, Other Whole and Ancient Grains, Nuts, and Non-Wheat Flours (Artisan, 2014).
Easy Teriyaki Sauce
Adapted from a recipe that had the sauce in it (from an unknown site), I just tweaked it so I didn't have to make the rest of the recipe and so I could use the sauce for other dishes.
Spaghetti Squash

Cinnamon Cashew Butter

Scallion Dry Ramen
Practically bare naked, the scallions are completely transformed into sweet bits of caramelized umami by the frying, and believe me (for your own benefit) when I say that this is simplicity at its best.

Lemon Rice
Simple and flavourful peanut and lemon rice-.It is very flavourful and can be made with either left over boiled rice or fresh boiled rice. Its a dry preparation so a good recipe to use for lunch boxes and as a travel food
Pig Pulled Over
This recipe serves 16, so living on my own it means two weeks of pulled pork sandwich for lunch. But when each subsequent sandwich surpasses the previous, that can hardly pose a problem.The choice of fruit juice is arbitrary, but I like mango because it reduces into the richest glaze. This method of making coleslaw is inspired by the Taiwanese pickling technique of first making a vinegar simple syrup, then pouring the hot syrup over the vegetables and letting it sit for three days. The result is something incredibly flavourful with a gutsy balance of acidity to cut through the pork’s fattiness.
Dukkah Dusted Lavash Crackers
I came up with the idea for these when I was making pita chips for a large party a few years back. Splitting the pitas and then brushing with olive oil just seemed to take forever. I was asked to make the same appetizer a week later, so when I was in the store looking at the pita and thinking how "pita" described perfectly what it's like making pita chips for 30, I noticed the lavash right next to them. Inspiration struck, I came up with this much easier alternative, and I haven't made a pita chip since. I like using my own dukkah blend, or za'atar made with fresh thyme, or a bit of both. These bake up best on a preheated baking stone in a screaming hot oven, so I typically make these right before or right after making pizza or artisanal bread. If I'm not interrupted and can get a good rhythm going, I can cut and prepare one lavash while another is baking in the oven (2-3 minutes), so a big batch using 6 lavash takes less than a half an hour to prep and bake. I hope you like these. ;o)

Strawberry Hard Ice Cream
The high sugar content of the condensed milk and the pectin in the strawberries is what keeps the ice cream smooth. Do add that extra splash of vanilla, which gives it that old-school ice cream parlour oomph. You don't need an ice cream machine, but you do need a powerful blender for this to work.

This soup is as simple as the simple path I took towards the healthier me! You can add your own twist to this cauliflower soup and take it to the next level.

Quinoa & Pine Nut Salad
The first time I tasted this salad at a party it had walnuts in place of pine nuts and didn't have the avocado. I made it the original way a couple times but knew that there had to be another nut that would go better. I tried toasted slivered almonds (which was good, but not perfect) then I tried the pine nut AKA Pignolia. The flavors come together wonderfully! I would recommend making this at least a couple hours before you eat it so it can chill.
