Pineapple Carrot Quick Bread – The Pandemic Baking Comeback

By //  by Candace Sampson Leave a Comment

We're baking again right? Because it feels like my need to bake all the things rises proportionately to how bad the news gets. Which brings me to this Pineapple Carrot Quick Bread, because immediately after seeing snow on the ground in October coupled with non-stop news from the south, I felt the need to eat my feelings in the form of a warm, baked, comfort food. Something I could slather with butter and pair with a cup of tea. I turned to this after I remembered a time when I worked in a …

How to Make a Muffuletta: Mastering the Massive Sandwich

By //  by Chef Christopher 1 Comment

Given my love for enormous food items, it’s hard to believe I had never heard of a Muffuletta until a fateful stop-over in Syracuse. Upon checking in to the hotel, the girl at the desk asked if I needed any restaurant recommendations. It was late in the evening, so my choices were limited to a popular national bar and grill chain restaurant or Tonini’s Pizzeria. “It’s the Home of the Muffuletta!” I was excitedly told. Naturally I was intrigued. It turns out the sandwich traces its North …

No Monkey Business Gluten-Free Banana Muffins

By //  by Sarah Robinson 1 Comment

The last few weeks I've felt like "The Flash" on speed. Maybe not my entire body, but my brain anyway. It's the time of year when all of my worlds collide: job, volunteering, and hobbies. Throw in a season-change and our poor dog's out-of-control allergies  translate to the entire family being up all night listening to her gnaw her paws. It's a recipe for brain freak-outs. With all of the craziness I haven't stuck to my almost gluten-free diet. The local pizza place is back to relaying my order …

Super Simple and Delicious No Knead Bread

By //  by Leslie Foster 1 Comment

OK, sometimes the name of a recipe says it all, right? Like this Super Simple and Delicious No Knead Bread, it's pretty self-explanatory. Honestly though, who doesn't like super simple in their life? Also, as the name suggests it's oh so yummy to eat. Win/win. A friend passed along this recipe (thanks Arlene!), so I have no idea where it originates from. I can however tell you that baking bread is now a regular scent in my home. That’s how easy this bread is to make. You don’t have to …

Lemon Blueberry Loaf

By //  by Candace Sampson 1 Comment

I love anything with lemon in it and this Lemon Blueberry Loaf is no exception. Perfect for just about any occasion, it's a cinch to whip up.

Lemon Blueberry loaf 6 tbsp unsalted butter 2/3 cup granulated sugar 1 1/2  tbsp finely grated lemon zest 1 1/2  tbsp vanilla 1 large egg (room temperature) 2 large egg yolks (room …
