Thin Crust Pizza

The homemade pizza we make is delicious, but different than the standard pizzeria type. The crust is usually a little fluffier and the sauce is thicker and chunkier. Today’s pizza, however, has a thin crust and light sprinkling of cheese that is similar to take-out. Of course, since it is homemade, it is significantly better!…

Double Chocolate Brownie Cookies

Our blog is officially one year old today! (Here’s our first post, if you would like to see…although there isn’t much to it.) It has been a good year full of great food. We would like to thank any readers for taking the time to read our posts, and like them or comment on them….

Double Chocolate Zucchini Snack Cake

Just as a public service to anyone out there who might not know, fall does not begin for a couple more weeks- unless you live in the southern hemisphere. Summer produce is still lingering, and at least during the day, it has been pretty warm. So, to celebrate the coming end of summer, we made…

Baked Potato Wedges

French fries can be fickle. Sometimes they’re not worth the calories at all- lukewarm, soggy, saltless, and tasteless hunks of potato that make you wish that you had chosen a salad side with your burger instead. On other occasions, though, they are impossible to stop eating, with their crispy exterior, perfect level of seasoning, and…

Banana Cake with Brown Butter Icing

This cake may not look like much, but it’s one of the best cakes ever. We’ve been making this banana cake for a while, and usually top it with cream cheese or chocolate frosting, but this time, we made a quick brown butter frosting and it was amazing! (Side note: I just realized we’ve never…

Perfect French Toast

I have to be honest, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, this French toast could easily pass as dessert. This is our favorite recipe out there for French toast, although we rarely make it because it’s not a very healthy way to start the day! However, when we do make it, it…

Coconut Shrimp Tacos with Mango Pineapple Salsa and Sriracha Cream Sauce

Summer is almost over, and I have really mixed feelings about it this year. I’m actually a bit excited, because it’s senior year! However, I am also dreading writing tons of supplement essays and narrowing down the list of 30 colleges that I currently have (seriously, applying to that many schools would cost so much…

Peach Crumble Ice Cream

Are there any fruits that you just don’t like? For me (Leah) it would be honeydew, cantaloupe, and figs. We made a really promising looking fig cake the other day, and both of us decided we did not like them. They tasted sort of earthy, although not a nice kind of earthy. Sort of like…

Lemon Poppy Seed Pound Cake

Let me start off by saying that there is nothing that I love in the dessert world more than a warm chocolate chip cookie. But chocolate as a whole? I just don’t love it the way some people do. It’s good, of course, and I would never pass up a chocolate dessert, but I have…
