Very Berry Shortcake
View recipe: Very Berry ShortcakeI recently had a bad craving for strawberry shortcake, probably because it is strawberry season here and about every few kilometers you can find a stand selling them.

Double Onion & Garlic Pizza
View recipe: Double Onion & Garlic PizzaI pride myself on being a fairly health-conscious eater, but being from Chicago the craving for pizza sometimes is just…unbearable.

But a few months ago I ate bulgur for the first time as part…

Not just your standard corner dive serving up plain ol’ burritos and tacos, but authentically delicious slow cooked, make me lick my fingers it’s so good, Mexican food. Of course your standard German…

Roasted Trout & Garlicky Pasta (Or My Night In Italia)
View recipe: Roasted Trout & Garlicky Pasta (Or My Night In Italia)I have recently re-discovered my love of whole fish after a traumatic experience in high school that involved me gutting my own recently caught Blue Northern. But my taste buds reminded me that whole fish is succulent and the flavors are so clean that even frozen fish tastes (almost) as good as the freshly caught…
