The PERFECT Holiday Dinner
What I'm about to share may very well change your life. I know it certainly changed mine... And it all came from a Bachelorette party. I will detail the recipe for you to try at home yourself, as well as the best wine to pair with it. As a little bonus, I'll also include one of my favorite desserts and the wine pairing for that! So without further ado... Allow me to begin detailing how one can make the best "spasagna" (spaghetti in lasagna format):

Short, Sweet, and to the Point Recipes!
My favorite part of catering during my past career of being a chef was the joy you felt in the room at a special event when you saw people thoroughly enjoying their meal. The food is always something that people will mention when they talk about said event afterward. If the food was bad you could ensure that you were going to lose potential clients over it but if people left satisfied you knew that meant the potential for new clients was rising. Service and presentation can help a meal but it cant save it. You need to have all the right flavors and the dedication to what you’re cooking. I will say that my least favorite part of this career was how time-consuming planning, cooking for and executing the event was. The only thing that ever made this part better was the glorious times that I would have a client who said the words “I want to keep it simple”. This meant I was going to get to have the joy of creating something fun and it wasn’t going to eat up all of my allotted time. I particularly shone in the appetizer and small dessert department in these situations. I wanted to share some of my best (and most popular) ideas with you today. I picked 3 of my appetizers and 3 of my mini desserts to show to you. The best part of these recipes is there is no meticulous amounts to abide by or ridiculously long instructions to follow. ‘Short, sweet, and to the point’ is a motto I love to live by when in the kitchen.

Creamy Shrimp Alfredo
Hello everyone I am back and as I promised I am bringing you more quick easy recipes using Knorr Pasta Sides. Except this time today we will be using the Alfredo pasta side. Who doesn’t love Alfredo. I know I love it. Alfredo is my all time favorite of Italian dishes. I can eat and type Alfredo longest it’s made right. For all my Alfredo lovers this recipe is for you. You can use chicken, shrimp, bacon, or all three. Usually most of us love Alfredo when it’s made from scratch. Or at least the easy way: boil the noodles, add your meat of choice, and pour your jar of Alfredo sauce. The usual two ways we usually make our Alfredo right! But today I’m bringing you an easier way to make it today. Our meat of choice today is shrimp. I’m not a big shrimp fan but I love it in my Alfredo and my Chinese food. This recipe is also for shrimp lovers. I used to make this recipe when I needed something quick to make and take to work for lunch etc. I make it once a blue moon now because my fiance is allergic to shrimp. My poor baby right! You can find Knorr brand sides in your local grocery store. This recipe is for any occasion or just a regular family dinner. This is a quick and cheap meal. Trust me you will love this recipe just like I do. Feel free to experiment with other ingredients if you don’t want the ones that I listed. I even added garlic. I even used sun dried tomatoes to make it into Tuscan and it was very delicious. You can do anything with this recipe. Take it from me I’m always finding new things to make and try for my family. We get bored of things really quick. Especially if we eat the same food all the time. Time to spice it up and make different things. Especially when you have kids that say they are tired of eating the same things. I know I understand I have three. My 2 year old is the main one. Without a further ado let’s get started on making this meal.

Count your blessings - Spiced Yoghurt and Coconut Curry
Count your blessings - Spiced Yoghurt and Coconut Curry - Kerala Pulisherry One of my favourite dishes is the Spiced Yoghurt and Coconut Curry which is also known as Kerala Pulisherry in the language Malayalam. This is a traditional dish that is part of South Indian Cuisine in Kerala. Kerala Pulisherry is also known as Moru Curry. I always like to cook this dish for my family and it is the most frequent dish that I make. This is one of the dishes that is most customarily served with easy cook rice, pickle and papadum and it can be served in addition to the chicken curry or fish curry and can cool down the spice of the other more spicier curries in the meal.

Red Velvet Toffee Snap Cookies
Of course, you probably know me very well for invading Vocal with my film studies stuff and articles entitled ‘a filmmaker’s guide’. I have often explained that I love to bake as well. Since I was young, I have loved the idea, the creativity and the relaxation of baking different things. I love to make macarons, layer cakes and gingerbread in particular and the activity of it really gets me away from my laptop (where I’m sure you know that I spend most of my life). So, I hope you enjoy me talking about what I bake and why I bake it complete with pictures (if not very good) of me actually baking, my baked goods in the process of being created and when they’re finished. I’m really happy to share this with you. And if you like, you can show me your baking (yes, I spend a lot of time writing, but I also spend a lot of time reading other people’s articles!), I would love to see it. Since I was in school, I was always interested in creating things, whether that be pieces of writing, welding things to make small statues or baking foods and making sweets (candy, if you’re American). I hope you enjoy looking at some of the stuff that has honestly kept me sane, because I seem to be going slightly mad.

Chicken Chili Mac
Hello everyone I wanted to share this quick recipe that I tried from Knorr Pasta sides by using the Cheddar Broccoli flavor. If you have a hard time getting your kids to eat their vegetables then this pasta side is the one for you. I have a 2 year old who is very picky at what she eats. Especially when it comes to her vegetables. Broccoli Mainly! I know a lot of us are familiar with Knorr brand foods. It’s easy to find at your local grocery store and is very cheap to get. It’s been times where money was low and Knorr never disappointed me. Especially with their quick recipes. I have made a lot of quick, easy and inexpensive dinners using it. I will post more recipes using Knorr. The chicken chili mac is one of my go to recipes especially during the cold season. Chicken, chili, and mac and cheese mixed together yum. Especially with some good ole vegetables. Can’t go wrong with this. Parents you will thank me later for the recipes that I will share with you. You don’t have to add the ingredients I listed on here. You can spice it up your own way. But you can try this first to see if you like it. I'm not a bell pepper fan but after I tried this recipe with them I was hooked. Make sure you wash your bell peppers and pat dry if you like to prep your food ahead of time. You can use any type of onion. I use the yellow onion or the sweet onion. I know SWEET ONION!!!! I love the sweetness of it especially it will take out a lot of the salt of your food. Try using low-fat or fat free milk if you want. I used whole milk, that's what I prefer but any milk will work. You can also add any kind of cheese of your choosing. Shredded cheese is the best or block cheese. It melts very fast and very easily. Stay tuned for this delicious recipe that is listed on the bottom. You can even serve this dish at small get together's especially during this pandemic.If you plan on making this dish for more than 4 people just double the ingredients. Without further ado let's get started on making this dish.

7 Simple Holiday Treats That Are Sure To Please
Hello, once again! Welcome to my holiday treats post. If you followed along with my introductory post last time, then you have an idea of what kind of goodies we will be discussing today. These recipes are among some of my all time favourites. Holiday treats are a sure fire way to get me excited over just about any occasion. These could be whipped up, just about any time of year, but they just seem so much more special and delicious when you make them for a party, expected or unexpected guests, of just to have on hand in case you get a snack attack during the holiday bustle.

Sweethearts Dessert Combo
Although I am not a drinker myself, I decided to join this contest just for the fun of it! Since I have an enormous sweet tooth, including red-wine infused cupcakes would an impeccable idea. Even if I don't imbibe the actual glass of red-wine, a bite of a red-wine infused chocolate cupcakes with baby pink frosting and chocolate drizzle is worth the attempt! Having a small amount of wine in pastries is worth the try for me. Large amouts of wine would make me nauseous, and is not worth the risk for me. My stepmother, my grandfather and step grandmother really enjoy drinking wine as a treat, so I think they will definitely enjoy this incredible dessert combination. My grandfather was an event planner and a wine enthusiast, so he would absolutely benefit from the beauty of wine and dessert, and would enjoy reading up on this blog!

Four Recipes to Impress this Thanksgiving
My mother always told me it's rude to arrive to dinner without bringing anything. Being a full time working mother of two little girls and wife to a husband who has burnt water, I usually opt to bring a bottle of wine. This year we are being hosted not once, but twice for a thanksgiving dinner. Seeing as this is a holiday where food is the focal point of the evening, I feel it's only fitting to bring something that doesn't get poured into a glass. Here are five easy and impressive dishes that would win over any crowd (not to mention none of them are pumpkin pie).
