experimental cooking can be tasty or turn into a snafood...
Here’s another delicious muffin recipe to try! I took the muffin base from the Lemon Blueberry Muffin recipe and modified it for my Orange Cranberry Muffins. I made a batch Friday and they didn’t make it past the weekend. Great for breakfast or snacking, these dairy-free muffins will make you wish you made a double [...]
In our produce order this week we received a container of plump organic blueberries. While Charlie would be perfectly content eating them as is, I was determined to bake muffins with them. Luckily for her, there was a Charlie sized handful left over just for her to nibble on. * TIP * With Valentine’s Day [...]
Sometimes all I need is a hot bowl of spicy chili to wash the days’ troubles away. This vegetarian chili seems to warm the soul… I kept the garnishes simple. The cool, creaminess of the Greek yogurt does not take away from the chili’s bold flavors while adding a welcome touch of tang and a [...]
When I was pregnant with Charlie I had a rather unfortunate craving for doughnuts. Thinking about it now, actually makes me nauseous. Fried in heavy vegetable oil, lathered with “maple” icing or stuffed with “cream”. Very unhealthy. During Chanukah I knew I’d be making doughnuts, but wanted to create a guilt-free {or at least less [...]
In our home, latkes aren’t just for Chanukah. We had these on our Thanksgiving table {along with home-canned apple butter and dairy-free sour cream} and they were a huge hit. Especially with my nephews “B” and “T” whose tastebuds are honest and unfiltered. Actually, the boys are why I’m finally sharing this recipe. Sister #2 [...]
A traditional treat served for Chanukah is Sufganiyot, jelly-filled doughnuts. I’ll be attempting my first batch of Sufganiyot later this week. But until then, these delicious cupcakes are making our taste buds quite happy. And they’re pretty, to boot! Star of David cupcake wrappers by Bella Cupcake Couture.

The quintessential autumn cookie? Pumpkin, of course! These little experimental gems turned out so soft and delicious. Since they are dairy-free they can be enjoyed after any meal. They sure did disappear with a quickness, too… See Pumpkin Cookies on Key Ingredient. Pumpkin Cookies Print Recipe type: Cookies Author: Mrs. Cox Prep time: 6 mins [...]
I’ve been using my own stash of vanilla-infused sugar in baking lately and I love it! A little something that really has a wonderful impact, on desserts especially. I also love the idea of making batches in smaller jars and gifting them to friends and family… Vanilla-Infused Sugar Print Recipe type: Ingredient Author: Mrs. Cox [...]
This is a new recipe that I made for Rosh Hashanah. Honestly, I had never heard of tzimmes before which is essentially a medley/stew of sweetened vegetables and sometimes fruit or meat. But I was excited to experiment! Carrots and sweet potatoes are a great combination, playing off one another’s seasonal sweetness. I used coconut [...]
Once I had my Rosh Hashanah menu planned I set out to create a special drink as well. I wanted it to highlight some of the important items that play a role during the high holy day; apples, honey, and pomegranate. Not only will this “sipper” look beautiful on your table, it is also a [...]
Here you will find experimental recipes, old and new. Buried in the archives you'll find all sorts of recipes! As time went on, there was a shift and many recipes were given a kosher twist as new family changes and traditions were introduced in our home. I'm still learning and I'm certainly no expert on the ways of a kosher kitchen. But I'm taking it all in and doing my best!
PR interest? It's gotta be strictly kosher and preferably organic - drop me a line!
