Yogurt Mac and Cheese Last month I teamed up with a yogurt brand on Instagram to create a recipe hack using their delicious creamy yogurt. I had never tried using yogurt in mac and cheese before but it seemed like it would be a good swap for milk in the cheese sauce. And good news: it is! Using yogurt instead…

A seasonal treat: Meyer Lemon Tart Citrus season is a bright spot during the winter months in the northeast. Inspired by the bright yellow Meyer lemons at the market I thought an extra special lemon curd tart with torched meringue would be just the thing for January blues.

I’ve been sitting on this post for a while, apologies. October came and went, fast but slow. We’ve been in the thick of renovating our (only) bathroom (yay, the perks of tiny house living) for the past month, and the urgency of getting everything set up before the freezing temps emerge has taken top priority in our lives. I’ll be…

Not to mention it works well as a dessert or sweet breakfast food. You’ll only need 2 medium-sized apples for this cake. One gets diced and folded into the…
