Chocolate Zucchini Cake with Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting

June 6, 2014 by Chantal 2 Comments

Chocolate Zucchini Cake with Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting

I always buy too much produce at the market every week.  I have all of these positive intentions about having a few extra slimming meals during the week, because I had a few too many glasses of wine or pieces of cake, and more often than not, I end up tossing the leftover veggies in […]

Baked Eggs with Tomatoes

I love eggs.  Could eat them every day, even twice a day.  They’re so easy to prepare, marry well with all kinds of ingredients, and give you a quick shot of protein that carries you through the day effortlessly.  They’re inexpensive, too.  What’s not to love about the egg?     I’ve seen many recipes […]

Butterrum Puddings

Butterrum Puddings

This started out as butterscotch pudding, but we’re not scotch drinkers, so I switched the scotch with rum, and baptized it with a new name.  And I dare say, it was a match made in heaven. My husband’s mother used to make butterscotch pie all the time, so this dessert brings back special memories in […]
