The combination of black beans and sweet potato gives these brownies a moreish, moist quality. These are great for kids as they contain no added sugar or trans-fats (you may wish to omit the coffee and substitute cacao powder if serving to youngsters, though).

Rich and fudgy brownies with a delightful frosting. You'd never know they contained zucchini!

I got this recipe from a friend I used to work with. It is so good!

These cute wicked cupcakes will definitely impress your kids and the friends, and they are delicious!

This easy crescent roll vegetable pizza is a favorite go-to for potlucks, showers, or wherever there's a hungry crowd. Use leftover veggies or your lastest garden harvest for toppings.

I wanted to share a recipe which I have been making this winter for my family. It is a good cold weather dish. It makes enough for a crowd my family (2 adults and 3 teens) only eat about half. This can be made ahead and chilled until ready to use.

This was my lunch today, packed with goodness and yumminess. I only made 1 quesadilla for myself, so I quartered the recipe. It was delicious, loved the oozing cheese and the flavorsome veggies. A great combination on both flavor and texture. I broiled the top for a few minutes to make it nice, brown and crispy. Will be making this more often for sure.

Shrimp scampi the easy way: plump shrimp simmered in a garlicky butter sauce spiked with Italian seasoning, then served over rice. A fast, garlic-forward seafood dinner ready in about 30 minutes.

Hearty Pennsylvania Dutch stuffing loaded with chicken, toasted bread cubes, and vegetables, all bound with eggs and broth. Bakes up golden and feeds a crowd.

Savor the fresh, vibrant flavors of Italy with these Caprese Melts. Toasted bread is layered with juicy tomato slices, creamy mozzarella, and fragrant basil, then broiled to golden perfection. This quick and easy recipe is perfect for a light lunch or appetizer, delivering classic Caprese salad flavors in a warm, melty sandwich.

Creamy arborio risotto with asparagus, peas, leeks, and fennel finished with mascarpone, Parmesan, lemon zest, and fresh chives. A showstopping spring main that feeds a crowd and tastes like the season on a plate.

One of my favorites. These are the cookies I make when I am trying to impress someone or cheer a person up. Though they are made with milk chocolate they are not too sweet. The edges are airy and crunchy and the center is soft and chewy.

Couscous and chickpea salad with julienned ham, raisins, fresh vegetables, and a cumin-turmeric lemon dressing. A colorful 30-minute lunch salad that's equally great for meal prep or potlucks.

Sure, you can buy ready-made pizza dough, but often it contains quite a bit of fat and sometimes it’s hydrogenated. This dough is an easy, no-hassle alternative. It takes about five minutes to put together in the food processor, and it’s easy to stretch or roll out. The dough recipe makes enough for two 14-inch pizzas (or three very thin 10- to 12-inch pizzas). You can roll all of it out and freeze what you don’t use, so long as it’s wrapped airtight.

Deep dish apple pie with a layer of sour cream over tart apples, sealed inside an egg-glazed double crust. The old-fashioned American classic served warm with cheddar or whipped cream.
