When I was a little kid, there were three things I would not eat–Burgers, Hot Dogs, and Cupcakes. I would eat meatloaf, regular cake, cookies and the like, but refused to eat those three. I also refused to eat sweet potatoes (That’s because my dad told my little girly self that they were pink inside [...]

What do I do best? I bake. I would not say I am superb at many things in life; however, I am a great baker. I am KNOWN for my baking. Yet, somehow, I found a way to date a man who DOES NOT LIKE DESSERT. Do you hear me? No dessert. No candy. My [...]

In honor of the girlfriend’s graduation from college (you go girl!), we decided to share a wonderful bottle of red and a delicious vegetarian dinner. The lady loves her Mexican food, but I had a skin tight dress to fit into for an event the next day, so true Mexicano flavor was right out. Don’t [...]
Cereal-Crusted French Toast
Posted in Main Dishes (For The Low Cal Left Brain), tagged Breakfast, Sweet on May 17, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Rico Suave and I were recently watching the Food Network, and by utter failure left the channel on too long and ended up watching Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives with Guy Fiere. I’m not really a fan of the show, but when Guy ended up in a diner that covered their french toast in cereal, I gave him [...]
Daddy’s Turkey Meatloaf
Posted in Main Dishes (For The Low Cal Left Brain), tagged Daddy, Turkey on May 15, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Let’s talk meat. Specifically turkey. Ground turkey’s beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder. If you are looking through a calorie-colored glass, lean ground turkey is a great substitution for beef, and my father has found a way to jazz the deconstructed bird right back into it’s Thanksgiving glory days–his turkey meatloaf. To many, [...]
Spinach and Cheese Flatbread Pizza

I think Pizza is one of God’s greatest gifts to earth. The idea is simple, yet there are millions of things you can throw on millions of types of crusts to create something absolutely delicious. Living in NYC, I’m completely surrounded by the big wigs of the dough, such as Lombardi’s and Grimaldi’s. As delicious [...]
Every So Often, You Need A Cocktail!

I’m a whiskey girl through and through. Nothing’s like a glass of Johnny Green or Laphroaig 10 after a long day–I can even be partial to some Jim Beam when I’m rocking back with my guy friends to some Slayer. But, the girlfriend is more into the craft cocktails and beer, so I decided to [...]
Middle Eastern Spiced Pita Chips

I have a weakness for spicy food. I would destroy half a bottle of Frank’s Red Hot in a week if I had it my way. However, my occasional, yet severe, acid reflux loves to disagree with my tastes. Ahh, sometimes my beauty amazes me. Meet my 21st birthday in Vegas, after taking down 20 plates at the Bellagio [...]
