These scones are scrumptious. Another recipe I found a couple of years ago, when scrolling through Pinterest looking for things to make with my Poteet strawberries. I love the addition of the tart lemon icing – it pairs so well with the extra sweet strawberries. Just add a cup of coffee and your set. The original recipe is from Baker by Nature.
My sister-in-law gave us some of her homemade granola for Christmas. It was so yummy, I had to get the recipe. I made a few tweaks, like switching from canola oil to coconut oil. Sent my son a big batch to his office and he said everyone said it’s addictive. So, there you have it. Healthy & addictive.
These pancakes became a family favorite the first time I made them 7 years ago. They are fluffy, lemony and soooo tasty. And, they feel so fancy! I use low fat milk & ricotta to make these luscious, yet light, pancakes. My son asks for them everytime he is home for a visit! Serve them with fruit or just slather on some butter & drizzle with syrup.
If you have ever been to the Crystal Palace restaurant at the Magic Kingdom, you’ve likely tried this amazing breakfast casserole. There are many renditions of this recipe floating around online. My version captures what we remember about our Disney World visit. We serve this every year for Christmas breakfast. It’s a little labor intensive, but so worth it!
During the Culinary Institute boot camp I attended, I met some talented chefs & super foodies. One is a private chef in Florida and he made this delicious dish for our breakfast one morning. I did my best to replicate it and I think it turned out pretty darn good. Give it a try!
This savory French toast is rich and luxurious. The light cantaloupe and arugula salad is the perfect compliment to these thick & buttery fried slabs of heaven! Try it and you’ll know I’m not lyin’! I used extra thick sliced challah bread is from a local bakery.
Who needs Chicken & Waffles when you can have TURMERIC FALAFEL & MATCHA WAFFLES W/CREMA DE JALAPEÑO? I’m so excited about this vegan meal! The falafel was amazing with the plant based waffles. And, the crema was the perfect compliment to this savory take on a classic. A quick dusting of za’atar & EB seasoning, and some greens & fruit on the side are all you need! Enjoy! Links to the products in this dish are below.

I used premade falafels from: http://www.afiafoods.com
I used vegan and nut free crema de jalapeño from: http://www.eatzubi.com
I was challenged to develop a vegan recipe for a project I was working on. I just love how these waffles turned out. I did not miss using egg in these waffles. They came out fluffy and yummy. And, this recipe is so versatile – with just a few tweaks they can go from sweet to savory. Definitely going to do more of this type of cooking! I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.
With back to school just around the corner, I wanted to share a family favorite. This individual quiche with a Mexican twist is on our Christmas breakfast menu, every year. It’s also great to make ahead for those busy school mornings. When my son visits from NYC, he asks me to make & freeze several for him to take home for breakfast the next week. They travel well, so it’s perfect for him to have a little taste of home.
My son was home for the July 4th weekend, so I always make some special meals. I whipped up this awesome French toast infused with lavender and lemon flavoring. I found a wonderful lavender lemon simple syrup that was my inspiration. Cutting super fat pieces of bakery challah bread, doesn’t hurt either. My son loved it!
