Peas or Beans and Rice is a Comfort Food Many Equate With Heritage and Home
I'm American, of Bahamian descent, and my family loved Bahamian style pigeon peas and rice. There is a variation of this rice dish practically all over the Caribbean. That's why I emphasized the “Bahamian style”. My father was a Bahamian. My mom was American, but she learned how to cook this dish for him and I grew up eating it at least 2-3 days during the week, and for sure it was served as a part of our large Sunday dinners. Other than a bay leaf I can't recall all of the herbs and spices she used in her recipe. Honestly, I don't think she ever made it the same way twice. When I grew up and got married, my late husband who was also from the Bahamas showed me all kinds of ways to vary the recipe. He did not like to use a bay leaf and preferred dried thyme leaves. In addition, he loved sampling all kinds of peas-n-rice or beans-n-rice recipes. The pigeon peas and rice dish is just one of them and I learned how to cook all of the recipes.

My Amazing Covid Meatballs
Don't be alarmed! Covid is NOT one of the ingredients. But, with everything that's going on it seems to be harder to get certain staples we used to think of as in abundance or taken for granted like, flour, sugar, salt and even ground black pepper being as scarce as toilet paper, hand soap and hand sanitizer.

Many Ways to Have Breakfast There are various dishes that are used as breakfast around the world. Some of them are sweet, while others are savory. There is something for everyone and for all budgets. Some breakfasts that are common in your country, could be quite exotic to a foreigner, and that's a great thing, since the diversity of flavors is what gives life to the culinary world.

How to make hassle-free egg mayo
Egg mayonnaise sandwiches. Nothing quite says “picnic” to me like egg mayo sandwiches. White bread*. Perhaps a little bit of crunchy cress in there too. A twist of salt and pepper. I could eat them until they came out my ears, which is biologically impossible, but I’d give it a go.

Brown Butter Cookies
Who would've thought they could improve butter? Brown butter has been all the rage lately and for good reason! I wanted to create a recipe that showcases the brown butter flavor with minimal distractions. So, I took the chocolate chips and all that jazz out of the cookies and put the brown butter in. We're left with a celebration of the caramelly, nutty, delicious flavor of brown butter and it's wonderful!

Herb Crusted Bread
We've all been learning how to make bread during quarantine. I'm not sure why this trend began but I'm here for it! I started off my bread journey making classic white bread, and then I started experimenting with some flavors. This herb-crusted bread is my favorite rendition yet! It's super simple, but the spices on top add a nice pop of flavor. I'll add some of my notes along with the recipe, and, as always, I encourage you to use this recipe as a guide and not a rulebook. Feel free to add your own flavors, take out some of my ingredients, get creative. Just be sure to make it a little bit fancy! Now, without further ado, here is the recipe.

Dinner Rolls
As a chef I have always loved cooking and baking. Growing up in rural Ohio my mother and grandmother made fresh homemade bread all the time but that was something that, as much as I enjoyed it, I didn't have the time for while working full time. Since most of us have been unable to work with the COVID-19 pandemic I have started baking bread almost weekly and am loving it!
