Egg In A Potato Basket:

Egg in a potato basket is the perfect way to celebrate Easter morning. These little breakfast baskets are made with Grown In Idaho Waffle Fries! They are not only cute, they are delicious, easy to make, and fun for a safer at home holiday. 

I’ve been spending all my time in my kitchen, it’s the only thing that keeps my mind somewhat at ease. In search of relief I decided to bake the LAUSD Coffee Cake from recently published by THE LOS ANGELES TIMES. It certainly didn’t wash my worries away but it does make sheltering in place a little more delicious…and right now comfort baking/cooking is one of the few things I can hold on to. HOLD ON this is temporary for all of us, is what I keep telling myself. 💙 Strong Hugs.

For St. Patrick’s Day this year I’m celebrating with some tie-dyed shamrock looking Polvorones, the ultimate Mexican sugar cookie. These cookies will make you feel so LUCKY like you just fell into a pot of gold. Okay, maybe not a pot of gold but you’ll feel GOLDEN for sure. They will have you doing a little Irish jig and furthering the similarities between Mexicans and The Irish…. What a beautiful union of people and cookie dough.

The first time I had a three layer banana pecan cake was at my Uncle Luke and his bride Vita’s wedding. I was a little girl under the age of ten and had never tasted anything so fine. Having banana cake at a wedding wasn’t a popular thing to do in those days. I distinctively remember instantly falling in love with the taste of banana cake and wondering WHEN I would have this enchanting taste in my life again?

This vegetarian muffuletta is all you’ll need to SCORE big with your friends and family this Super Bowl Sunday!! I used my own homemade sourdough bread, but as a time saver you can buy a loaf at your favorite bakery. I also made the most tasty olive salad to enclose my sandwich fillings. I say feel free to stack up your sandwich with whatever your heart desires. I listed the ingredients I used below.

We are currently experiencing COLD Los Angeles season, and by that I mean its a bit nippy outside. During this climate here on the west coast my mind naturally makes the transition to soup time. Everyday I’m whipping up a new bowl in my soup kitchen….some I share, some I don’t.
