Pastries/2 recipes

No special occasion needed for this decadent dessert...it's so easy.

We love this simple and tasty recipe, toasted fennel adds more flavor to the squash, and they are fresh and tasty.

These were delicious after a little bit of tweaking. I don't think I've ever made meatballs without some garlic, so I felt the need to add one large clove of minced along with a teaspoon of soy sauce, replacing the 1/2 teaspoon of salt, in the meat mixture...

A delicious way to enjoy cherry tomatoes. We have lots of cherry tomatoes growing at our backyard, they are juicy, sweet and screaming the ripeness to us. This recipe is a perfect fit, simple ingredients, easy to make, and it tastes absolutely delicious.

These Mexican stuffed mushrooms were delicious. The recipe was very easy to follow, and these stuffed mushrooms were packed with yumminess. Absolutely enjoyed it, will be making these tasty bites again for sure!

This moist and flavorful corn bread is packed with delicious yet nutritious ingredients, such as browned onions, roasted corn, basil, roasted bell pepper, cheese... You can serve it as a side or it's delicious just by itself.

It's easy to produce baked goods using this healthy version of a buttermilk baking mix. Substitute for Buttermilk Bisquick. This makes a great substitute for Bisquick or other baking mix.

Classic Viennese Christmas cookie. Soft and buttery with a dusting of snowy sugar.

This is not your classic bundt cake that's packed with not-so-good-for-you ingredients. The cake is made with 100% whole wheat flour, grapeseed oil, Greek yogurt, low-fat cream cheese, and fresh raspberries. The ganache doesn't have any butter or cream, it contains cocoa powder, honey, grapeseed oil and Greek yogurt. Super chocolaty, fudgy, moist and packed with goodness.

Juicy chicken breast stuffed with cheese, shallots and cheese. The phyllo really helps hold in the moisture to keep the chicken breast moist. This is a reduced fat version of a popular recipe and it's equally as tasty in my opinion. If you wish to reduce the fat even further omit the cheese altogether.

Simple and basic

A classic pumpkin pie spike with rum. Dark, rich and delicious.

These Parmesan sesame twists are addictive, they are golden brown and crispy, parmesan, sesame and thyme leaves are delicious combination.

You will love how tasty this salad is. You can serve it as a side dish, or just have it for a simply flavorful yet nutritious main course.

Very moist and fluffy inside, golden brown outside; sour cream added the extra moist and tangy flavor, I used 3/4 cup of brown sugar, and I thought it was the right sweetness. If you have some ripe bananas on hand or you love banana bread, I will definitely recommend this recipe.

It's the season of Swiss chard and kale. We got lots of these fresh leafy greens from our CSA farm, and I was trying to come out an idea to use them up, surfing the internet, found a recipe in New York Times, it's a chard and feta phyllo tart. Definitely got the inspiration, I used both chard and kale, instead of feta, I used cheddar; and I sauteed some fresh mushrooms and added some toasted pine nuts, which worked very well. Also, I used a pie plate instead of a tart pan, and it was a great success, absolutely flavorful and delicious. The phyllo crust came out flaky and crispy. Have definitely become one of my signature recipes :)
