Dessert

No-Bake Greek Yogurt Cheesecake Cups

New York-style cheesecake is one of my all-time favorite desserts. The combination of toasty, buttery graham cracker crust and thick, tangy cream cheese-loaded cake is at the top of my “favorite indulgences” list, and I have a feeling I’m not alone in this devotion. Not only do I love to eat it, I also love […]

How to Make a Coconut Bowl

Do y’all know how to make those adorable coconut bowls that have been all over Pinterest this summer? I didn’t, though I’ve definitely been guilty of bringing home a couple of coconuts from the grocery store, and then realizing that I had no idea what to do with them besides bust out a hammer. #coconutfail. In today’s video, […]

Back-to-School Teacher Treats

Surely there must be some mistake. The calendar’s saying that it’s mid-August, but that would mean that summer’s coming to a close… and that couldn’t possibly be true, because it just started. Wait, didn’t it? Okay, maybe I’m in extreme denial (and yes, you have permission to join me in a few more moments of summertime bliss […]

How to Make an Israeli Breakfast

Confession: I’ve never understood sweets for breakfast. Pancakes? Donuts? Cinnamon rolls? How are those not considered desserts?! Now now, before you write me off, you have to understand that my judgy palette is nothing more than a product of my childhood. Raised in a culture that takes its breakfasts very seriously, I can’t help but feel a […]

Cocktails

Low Calorie Backyard Mojito

From Bonnie: “I call this a low calorie backyard mojito because I use limes from my tree and mint from my garden. It’s a basic mojito, but I exclude the sugar. The rum is sweet enough that the drink doesn’t really need the extra sugar.” Read the full story here: Entertaining With Bonni Taylor

Dinner

Sriracha Honey Grilled Shrimp

From Bonni: “It gets so hot here in Texas that turning on the oven just heats up the whole house, so grilling is a summer must for me. This recipe works great with both grilled shrimp and grilled chicken, so feel free to choose one or offer both for dinner guests.” Read the full story […]

Appetizers

Watermelon Arugula Goat Cheese Salad

From Bonni: “This refreshing summer salad is so easy to make – all you have to do is combine the ingredients and serve! A watermelon arugula goat cheese salad is the perfect recipe for the busy hostess.” Read the full story here: Entertaining With Bonni Taylor

Cocktails

French 75 Popsicles

From Bonni: “These French 75 popsicles are my favorite summer treat right now! The popsicles are alcohol-free (booze is added to the glass when serving), so it can be served with a sparkling blood orange or strawberry soda for kids or guests not drinking alcohol.” Read the full story here: Entertaining With Bonni Taylor

Salads

Raw Corn Summer Salad

From Bonni: “I love this raw corn summer salad because it is so refreshing! Feel free to add whatever seasonal veggies are available. You can certainly make this ahead of time and keep refrigerated, but I suggest adding the okra right before you serve because it can get slimy.” Read the full story here: Entertaining With […]

The Healthiest No-Bake Key Lime Pie

When I set out to create a healthier version of key lime pie, I had a lot of goals in mind. First, I wanted it to be no-bake, because #August. And #Texas. Which was tough, since you can’t have key lime pie without that signature graham cracker crust. Second challenge is that I wanted it to […]

Breakfast

Puffed Brown Rice Bars with Tahini & Bittersweet Chocolate

In the warmer months, I’m always looking for easy, throw-together meals that are more about “assembling” than actual cooking. Smoothies are great, of course, but while looking for ideas to change things up a bit, I found these amazing breakfast bars inspired by Green Kitchen Stories. I know they look like a candy bar, but they’re […]
