Tomato and Pecorino Puffs

Tomato and Pecorino Puffs

Tomato and Pecorino puffs are a fancy way of saying a circular piece of puff pastry with tomato and cheese on it. But however you say it, it tastes delicious and makes you look like the fanciest of chefs. I like this recipe for two 

Grilled Peach Salad with Caesar-Poppy Seed Dressing

Grilled Peach Salad with Caesar-Poppy Seed Dressing

Sorry salads, I’m really just here for the dressing. Okay maybe in this case the grilled peaches too. But really who wants to eat plain leafy greens, when they are clearly calling out to be doused in a delicious coating of sweet, sour, creamy. Anything 

Air Fryer Coconut Shrimp with Mango Dip

Chicken Satay Flatbread

Korean Spicy Tofu Spaghetti

Korean Spicy Tofu Spaghetti

A few weeks ago, M and I were wanting to change up our weeknight dinner routine. Despite the occasional home made pizza or chicken tacos, it almost undoubtedly always consists of a  vegetable stir-fry and pasta with marinara sauce. The main reason being that they
