Healthy Shrimp Po' Boy Sandwich

Posted: September 9, 2015 sandwiches

The po boy is one of Louisiana’s best contributions to the culinary world but like many of our favorite foods, it definitely falls in the “indulgence” category. The typical po boy features fried shrimp (or other seafood like oysters) with a rich and tangy remoulade sauce that Cajun food is well known for. We wanted to enjoy a more figure-friendly version so we took all of our favorite features of one of our favorites sandwiches and gave it a bit […]

How To Make Prosciutto & Arugula Pizza

Posted: August 26, 2015 pizza

We’re not going to lie—pizza is generally amazing. We’ve even been known to enjoy a frozen one from time to time. But if you knew how easy it was to make it from scratch, you would never go back to the freezer section. Like this arugula and prosciutto pizza for instance. This thing doesn’t hold anything back when it comes to flavor—even without the usual red sauce. It’s simplicity at its finest, using just a couple fresh ingredients because really, […]

How To Make Watermelon Cupcakes

Posted: August 11, 2015 cupcakes

We’re holding onto every last second of summer we can with these watermelon cupcakes. To get it out of the way first, they do not taste like watermelon. However, that won’t even matter when you see just how cute they turn out! What we absolutely love about this recipe is that it’s rather simple for a pastry dish. By using a store bought mix instead of making the batter from scratch, you save tons of time and can have more […]

How To Make Cocktail Popsicles

Posted: July 28, 2015 popsicles

Nothing says childhood and summer like a big batch of sugary, food dye soaked popsicles that seem to get more on your hands and clothes than actually in your mouth. We remember the days of chasing down the ice cream truck so we could enjoy whatever popular flavor or cartoon character was trendy that summer, relishing in the thrill of having heard that catchy jingle at just the right time. Those were the days. And although we wish it was […]

The 4th of July is one of our favorite holidays to experiment with new recipes. It’s the true event of the summer, where friends and family gather for backyard barbecues and firework spectacles (either professionally done or homemade, we don’t judge). Whereas there’s enough burgers, hot dogs and potato salad to go around, the true treat of the 4th of July is all of the different pastry recipes you can play around with. Like this tart, for instance. This thing […]

Few dessert sauces have the stamina and the notoriety like creme anglaise.

We’re swooning over here just dreaming about it. But what if we told you that you can have all the custard-y goodness of creme anglaise in the form of ice cream? Then I bet you’d be as excited […]
