Baked Taquitos
Do you ever take where you are in life at this moment and then scan back to an exact year ago and see where you were and how far you have come? One of the things that I enjoy doing is taking the year anniversary of a really big transition or change that occurred in life...
The Ultimate Break-Apart Cookie
I’ve been learning so much about how to deal with life this week. This recipe is a great representation of said lesson. You can set out to do something all you’d like but always to open to (and expect) set backs. In fact, allow those set backs to be your teacher and your guide. When...

Avocado Mango Fig Salsa
It’s already happening. We completely bypassed any sign of winter and went straight into spring. The worst part? It’s already summer now here in LA. Let’s do the math.

Crispy Orange Cauliflower
Just when you thought Chinese food was off-limits… Proof as to why I am a better cook than baker. Cooking comes a lot more naturally for me–I am more at ease in finding my way around my spice rack than I ever am at baking a cake. There’s something so relaxing to me about chopping up...
Cracked Egg Cupcakes
Remember those times as a kid when the year seemed to take forever to get through? Especially once Christmas passed, that period of waiting until Spring Break (which was of course the marking point that summer was just around the corner) seemed to drag on and on… No one tells you that as you get...

Blueberry Coffee Cake
“Don’t be afraid of new ideas, be afraid of old ideas. They keep you where you are and stop you from growing and moving forward. Concentrate on where you want to go, not on what you fear.” -Anthony Robbins What I am finding that happens when you face your fears is you realize that 1)....
